How can I synchronize my accounting entries with MyUnisoft?

  • Updated
The MyUnisoft integration allows you to connect your accounting software to your Qonto Accounting Hub to automate the synchronization of your entries. ✨ It ensures the automatic retrieval of your accounting reference data (chart of accounts, subsidiary accounts, journal codes) and the creation of your client files in Qonto.
Once the connection is established, your accounting entries (purchases, sales, expense reports, bank transactions) and their supporting documents are automatically synchronized after validation. This integration is available for accountants with access to the Qonto Accounting Hub and an active MyUnisoft subscription.
For more information on the general operation of synchronization APIs, see our dedicated article: Overview of APIs for synchronizing accounting entries.
 

What settings should I know before connecting MyUnisoft?

Before connecting your files to Qonto, it is essential to consider the specifics of MyUnisoft to avoid any synchronization issues.
 
Management of 401x and 411x subsidiary accounts
In MyUnisoft, all accounts starting with 401 or 411 are systematically treated as subsidiary accounts, without exception. This includes the 401000 account itself, as these accounts are centralized in certain editions of MyUnisoft.
⚠️ There is no distinction between account 401000, 401001, or 401ABC in MyUnisoft: all 401x and 411x accounts will be classified as subsidiary accounts on the Qonto side. You must take this into account in your MyUnisoft settings before connecting your files to Qonto.
 
TRA exchange format
The MyUnisoft API uses the TRA exchange format, which imposes specific constraints on the structure of entries. Please consult the article dedicated to the TRA format to learn about all these constraints before starting the connection. See the instructions at the end of this document for proper operation.
 

How can I generate my firm’s API key in MyUnisoft?

The connection between MyUnisoft and your Qonto Accounting Hub relies on Firm Mode, which allows the automatic creation of Qonto files based on the files present in MyUnisoft. This mode is mandatory to use the integration.
 
To generate your firm’s API key, follow the procedure available in the MyUnisoft documentation dedicated to generating the firm API key. [link to be completed — public MyUnisoft documentation]
 
Who should generate the API key?
The generated API key reflects the access rights of the user who creates it. If you do not have access to all the files of your firm in MyUnisoft, the generated key will not allow Qonto to synchronize all files.
To ensure complete synchronization of all your files, the API key must be generated by a user who has access to all files of the firm in MyUnisoft. If this is not your case, ask a colleague or the administrator with full access to perform this step on your behalf.

How can I generate the Firm API key step by step?

  1. In MyUnisoft, go to Settings > Connectors
  2. At the top of the screen, select Firm mode
  3. In the list of displayed connectors, click on Qonto (the connector may still appear under the name "Regate by Qonto" depending on the MyUnisoft version)
  4. Click the Generate button to create your API key
  5. Immediately copy the displayed key — it is only visible once and will not be accessible after closing the window
⚠️ Do not click the "Log me out" button to close the window: this action would deactivate the Qonto connector. Close the window by another method after copying your key.
Once the key is copied, the module activates automatically. You can then enter it in your Qonto Accounting Hub via the Integrations menu.
 

How can I enter my MyUnisoft API key in the Qonto Accounting Hub?

Once your MyUnisoft API key is generated, go to your Qonto Accounting Hub to finalize the connection.
  1. Log in to your Qonto Accounting Hub
  2. Go to the Integrations menu
  3. Follow the Integrations wizard and enter your MyUnisoft API key at the indicated step
Once the key is entered and the connection validated, your MyUnisoft files are automatically recognized in Qonto. The accounting reference data (chart of accounts, subsidiary accounts, journal codes) of each file is retrieved, and the synchronization of entries can begin.
If there is an error during connection, check that the API key was generated by a user with access to all firm files (see previous section) and that your MyUnisoft subscription includes API access.

What constraints should I know about the TRA format for Cegid and MyUnisoft?

The TRA format is the exchange format used to export your accounting entries to Cegid (Loop, Y2, V9, V10, XRP...) and MyUnisoft, whether via the automatic API or manual export. ✨ This format imposes precise rules on the structure of entries, labels, and subsidiary codes.
Respecting these constraints is essential to ensure correct imports into your accounting software, without rejection or error. This page gathers the key points to be aware of before starting your exports.
 

What limit applies to entry labels in TRA format?

The TRA format imposes a strict limit: entry labels cannot exceed 35 characters. Any label longer than this limit is automatically truncated during export from Qonto, whether in API mode or manual export.
This constraint applies to all software compatible with the TRA format, including Cegid and MyUnisoft.
 

What subsidiary code rules must I follow in MyUnisoft?

In MyUnisoft, subsidiary codes must be prefixed by the first 3 digits of the related account number. This rule is specific to MyUnisoft and applies to both manual exports and automatic synchronizations via the API.
Here are the expected formats depending on the account type:
  • Supplier accounts (401x): the subsidiary code must start with 401 (example: 401EDF for supplier EDF)
  • Customer accounts (411x): the subsidiary code must start with 411
  • Employee accounts (421x, 467x): the subsidiary code must start with 421 or 467 depending on the account concerned
⚠️ In MyUnisoft, all accounts starting with 401 or 411 are systematically treated as subsidiary accounts, without exception — including the 401000 account itself. This classification is specific to MyUnisoft and affects the handling of accounts in Qonto. Be sure to configure your subsidiary codes accordingly before connecting your files to Qonto.
