The Sage Intacct Trigger allows dbsync DBSync core system to query entities from the Sage Intacct Backend services. Sage Intacct exposes a “get” and “get_list” interface which is masked using a “SELECT query syntax” exposed by the Sage Intacct connector. The  “SELECT query” syntax is given below:

Code Block
select [ fld, fld2, fld3,…fldn / *] <fields>
from <entity>
where [<fld1> opr <fld2>] <single_condition>
or/and[<fld1><opr> <fld2>,<fld3><opr><fld4>]|or/and[<fld5><opr><fld6] <multiple conditions>
<where_clause>
order_by <fld1> asc, <fld2> asc, <fld3> desc <order_by_clause>

In the above-mentioned syntax:

Fields:  The  The fields are actually the attributes, or the elements, within an entity which that need to be fetched by the query. In case all the fields need to be fetched, an asterisk “*” could can be used.

Entity: The entity which needs to be fetched from the Sage Intacct Backend.

Where Clause: The “where” clause takes in a series of “or/and “ conditions which internally contain the logical expressions ( the operands) which need to be operated upon. Please note that only the first condition will have two expressions as operands and any other additional operand will be a single expression.

Please note that a “single_condition” is also supported which consists of a single expression in the where clause.

Order By Clause: The “order_by” clause allows the sort order to be specified for the fields fetched.

Note that, 'where', and, 'order_by', clauses are both optional and need not be specified. The “Query Type” property in Sage Intacct Trigger  specifies specifies whether it is a list query or a single select query.
