Exact Bouw | Safely go live with test mode

With test mode, you can safely try out the Exact Bouw integration with a few employees, without affecting the rest of your employees. This lets you check whether everything is right before you go live.

How to test the integration

  1. Choose your test employees in the settings step Test employees. Choose two or three, ideally one that’s already in Exact Bouw and one that still needs creating: then you’ll see both scenarios work.

  2. Set the integration to test mode before you activate the integration. You do this on the Finish tab.

  3. Start the synchronisations. On the Finish tab, under "Flows", you’ll find two synchronisations, each with a start button (the arrow icon) on the right. First start Synchronise employees, and then Synchronise leave and sick leave.

  4. Check the result in Exact Bouw. Are the employee details, department, schedule and absence from the start date correct? If you use the Time tracking entry module, also check the booked hours.

  5. Everything okay? Turn off test mode. From the next synchronisation onwards, the integration processes all employees according to the mapping settings.

Heads up: if the list of test employees is empty while test mode is on, nothing gets synchronised.

What happens in test mode?

In test mode, the integration deliberately doesn’t remove anything in Exact Bouw. Changes that would normally mean a removal, such as withdrawn leave, also stay there until the first synchronisation after you’ve turned off test mode.

Can I choose when synchronisation happens?

The synchronisations run automatically every night. On the Finish tab, you can choose a different time for the absence synchronisation. Use the start button to start a synchronisation manually straight away.
