Connector Setup  

Configure the Jim2 integration in Autotask. This will result in the generation of the required API Usr and API password.

 

Users

Create your users (account managers) in Autotask and ensure they have the same primary email as configured in Jim2 email address. This is used when mapping Resources. Email is the preferred way to map them.

 

In Jim2, add a non report group named Autotask that will see the cardfile included in the published list used for pushing to Autotask.
