Why Connect Rippling to Sage?

Sage adds complexity: migration between Sage products (e.g., Sage 50 to Sage Intacct) is not seamless and often requires professional assistance

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Rippling and Sage aligned

No single source of truth when employees live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

Manually copying data between Rippling and Sage wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

Production order data in Rippling and inventory levels in Sage are reconciled manually, risking stock-outs

Reporting across Rippling and Sage requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

Client engagement details in Rippling and time-tracking data in Sage do not align, making billing inaccurate

How We Help

Connecting Rippling (hr & payroll) with Sage (accounting & finance) is one of the most requested integrations among Australian Professional Services and Manufacturing businesses. This integration eliminates the manual transfer of employees and payroll data, reducing errors and freeing up your team to focus on growth. On the technical side, Rippling uses a REST API with OAuth authentication, and Sage authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.
