M3 Back Office Export Setup
M3 Back Office Export mapping does not take place in Stayntouch PMS. The only item set in Stayntouch PMS configuration is selecting the data categories you wish to be included in the export files from Settings > Integrations > Back Office > M3 Back Office Export > Data Type.
Stayntouch PMS will then generate an export with a line item for each of the transactions that relate to the selected data sets. All the mapping configuration for the individual line items needs to be done on the M3 side.
Please note, the following items are needed to set up the interface:
- Property ID: Provided by M3; this is their system code needed for the interface
- Email Address:Company or property-specific email address to be sent to M3; this can include other email addresses by including a semicolon (;) between each email address
- An XML file will be generated based on the selection of report data below as part of the End of Day process and will be sent to the email address(es) listed
Any change of configuration in Stayntouch PMS that relates to the data sets included in the export needs to be reflected in M3. Examples of these report data include the following:
- Ledger Balance Information
- Guest Opening Balance

M3 EXTRACTS/EXPORTS
Occasionally, M3 clients or an M3 representative may require "extracts" by date or need to view M3 exports. To provide these exports in the M3 format for historical dates, follow the steps below:
- Go to Settings > Integrations > Back Office > M3 Back Office Export.
- Confirm that you or M3 representative that needs the extract can receive emails that are sent to the email(s) listed in the Email Recipient for EOD Exports section. If they can, move onto the next step. If not, add them to the list and click SAVE CHANGES.
- Toggle to SYNC tab from the right hand corner of the screen.
- Select the date range that you require extracts for and click the blue SYNC button.
