FAQ

Questions about the SmartAccounts integration

How do I connect SmartAccounts to Uku?

Enter your SmartAccounts email and password in Uku Settings & Apps. Then add per-client API keys (public + secret) inside SmartAccounts for each client you want to sync work volume data.

Is client sync one-way or two-way?

One-way: SmartAccounts → Uku. Customers, addresses and registry codes flow from SmartAccounts into Uku. We deliberately don't push client edits back — your books stay the single source of truth.

What exactly flows between Uku and SmartAccounts?

From SmartAccounts → Uku: customers, products, transaction counts (documents, entries, invoices, bank entries), payment status. From Uku → SmartAccounts: invoices, line items, VAT rates, due dates. The "What syncs" section above shows the full picture.

Can I bill per entry count?

Yes. This is the killer feature of the SmartAccounts integration: SmartAccounts reports the number of documents, entries, and invoices per client per month, and Uku uses those numbers to bill your volume-based contracts automatically. Stop running count spreadsheets.

How long does setup take?

Connecting SmartAccounts and importing your client list takes under an hour. Setting up per-client API keys takes a few minutes each. Mapping your services to Uku contracts takes 30–60 minutes. Our onboarding team will sit on a call with you and do most of it.

Will Uku sync invoices to SmartAccounts without my approval?

No. Nothing leaves Uku until you hit send. There's no background sync running in the dark. You stay in control of every invoice that lands in SmartAccounts.
