The Corma integration for Sage Intacct brings Sage Intacct accounts under Corma's access governance: IT and finance know who can reach the general ledger, payments and approval workflows, and remove that access when people change roles or leave. Sage Intacct is a cloud-native financial management and accounting platform built for mid-sized and enterprise organizations. It combines accounts payable and receivable, general ledger, cash and order management, project accounting, multi-entity consolidation, revenue recognition and financial reporting in one audit-ready platform.
Where does financial access governance break down without Sage Intacct integration?
When Sage Intacct access is managed apart from HR and identity data, the gaps become compliance issues.
- Segregation of duties violations: the same person should not both initiate and approve a transaction. Manual provisioning creates the conflicts auditors look for.
- Role changes never reflected in access: Sage Intacct records cost center assignments, approval authority and financial roles. Without a link between HR changes and Sage Intacct access, promotions and transfers do not change what the employee can reach.
- Former employees with active access: if HR departures do not trigger deactivation, former finance team members can keep access to general ledger data, payment approvals and compensation records, a SOX compliance risk.
- Audit trail gaps: auditors expect a complete, timestamped record of who could access which financial capability and when. Without automated tracking, that evidence must be rebuilt after the fact.
How Corma automates Sage Intacct access control
- Provisioning from HR and identity data: when a new employee joins, Corma provisions their Sage Intacct account from HR and identity provider data, at the access level that matches their finance role, through automated provisioning.
- Departure-triggered deactivation: when the HR system records a departure, Corma deactivates the person's Sage Intacct account and their other connected accounts.
- Segregation of duties through role-based templates: templates give each person only the Sage Intacct permissions their current role requires, which helps prevent segregation of duties conflicts.
- A SOX and audit-ready record: every provisioning event, permission update and deactivation is logged in Corma's audit trail, ready for SOX audits.

How does Corma connect to Sage Intacct?
Once Sage Intacct and your identity provider are connected, Corma starts synchronizing access data and applies your provisioning and offboarding rules to Sage Intacct accounts.

Yes. Role-based templates give each person only the access their current finance role requires, and access reviews let managers catch conflicting permissions.
How is data protected during the Sage Intacct integration?
Corma uses minimum necessary permission scopes, encrypts stored credentials and lets you revoke access at any time. Data is hosted on AWS in data centers inside the European Union, and Corma is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified.
Which compliance frameworks does this integration support?
Corma's access controls, audit logging and review workflows support SOX, GDPR and ISO 27001 requirements for financial system access.
