Next, depending on your administrator’s recommendations, choose one of the available sign-in options:

  1. Enter username & password in Velixo – lets you provide ERP sign-in credentials directly in the Velixo interface.

    Add connection form with Enter username & password in Velixo selected as the sign-in method


  2. Sign in with Acumatica (or other Acumatica-based ERP) – provide the full URL you normally use to sign in to your ERP, along with the Tenant, and you will be redirected to the Acumatica sign-in screen, where you can provide your username and password credentials or sign in using Single Sign-on as usual.

To save your credentials for future use, check the Remember credentials box.

If you check this box, your credentials are not actually saved within the spreadsheet. Rather, they are saved to your Velixo user profile, which resides in your local Microsoft Office installation and is encrypted at rest.


Click Connect.

To immediately refresh the data in your workbook upon connecting, click Connect and refresh from the Connect button drop-down.
