Set up missing Sage Intacct projects from Asana
For finance teams who want every active Asana project ready for costing in Sage Intacct, by asking their AI assistant to find and create the gaps.

Connect Asana, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
Projects with nowhere to put their costs
Projects often start in Asana and never get set up in Sage Intacct, so their time and costs have nowhere to go. Finding which active projects are missing means comparing two long lists by eye.
Without PopdockAI
- Export active projects from Asana
- Export projects from Sage Intacct
- Compare names by eye
- Retype each missing project by hand
With PopdockAI
- Active Asana projects compared with Intacct by name
- Close names shown apart for you to decide
- Nothing created until you confirm
- Each project created with Asana dates and read back

**Objective:** Find active Asana projects in the team containing `{team}` (default: all teams) that have no Sage Intacct project of the same name, and create the missing ones in Intacct with the category `{category}`.
**Step 1: Read Asana projects**
Call `asana-get-project` with `archived` = false, `completed` = false and `team.contains` = `{team}` if given. Keep `name`, `start-on`, `due-on` and `owner`.
**Step 2: Read Intacct projects**
Call `intacct-get-project` with no name filter and a `max-records` high enough to cover every project. Keep `project-name`.
**Step 3: Find the gap**
An Asana project is missing when no Intacct `project-name` equals its `name`, ignoring case and surrounding spaces. Where an Intacct name is similar but not equal (one contains the other), do not treat it as missing; list it under "possible matches" for the user to decide.
**Step 4: Confirm**
Show a table of the projects you would create: name, start date, end date. Show the possible matches separately. Ask the user to confirm and let them remove rows. Do not continue without a clear yes.
**Step 5: Create and confirm**
For each confirmed row, call `intacct-create-project` once with `name` = the Asana name, `category` = `{category}`, `start-date` = the Asana `start-on` and `end-date` = the Asana `due-on`, both converted to MM/DD/YYYY. Leave `project-id` blank so Intacct numbers it. Then call `intacct-get-project` with `project-name` = the name to confirm it exists and report its `project-id`.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* `asana-get-project` is on the asana server. `intacct-get-project` and `intacct-create-project` are on the intacct server.
* `intacct-create-project` is the only tool that may write, once per confirmed project. Do NOT call `intacct-update-project`, `intacct-create-task` or any asana create or update tool.
* Do not set `customer-id` or `manager-id`: Asana has no field that reliably identifies either. Tell the user to set them in Intacct afterwards.
**Validation:**
* If Asana returns no projects, say so and stop.
* If `intacct-create-project` fails because the company requires a `project-id`, stop and ask the user how projects should be numbered rather than inventing ids.
* If the create succeeds but the follow-up read does not find the project, report it as unconfirmed.Who it's for
One answer, three teams that use it
Project accountants
Set up projects for costing
Create missing Intacct projects with the right category and dates.
Create Sage Intacct projects for active Asana projects in the Engineering team under the Internal category.
Finance managers
Close the gap between systems
See every active Asana project with no Intacct project before close.
Which active Asana projects have no matching project in Sage Intacct?
PMO leads
Avoid duplicate projects
Close names are shown separately so nothing is created twice.
Backfill missing Asana projects into Sage Intacct, but show me near matches first.
How it works
What PopdockAI does when you ask
You choose a category and optional team, and your AI assistant finds the missing projects. You review the list, and it creates only what you confirm, never editing an existing project.
01
Ask
You choose the Intacct project category, and optionally an Asana team.
02
Compare
It finds active Asana projects with no Sage Intacct project of the same name.
03
Confirm
You review the list, with close names shown separately, and remove any rows.
04
Create
It creates each confirmed project in Intacct and reads it back.
