Create a Benchmark Gensuite Connection

Save the customer's Gensuite credentials and API endpoints in a reusable tenant connection.

The connection stores the Gensuite credentials once. Every Gensuite integration on the tenant uses it; you do not need a connection for each plant.

  1. Click Integrations Manager in the left navigation.
  2. In the Connections panel, click +.
  3. In Add Connection, select Benchmark Gensuite from Select Connector.

    Add Connection dialog with the Select Connector list open, showing Benchmark Gensuite

  4. Fill in the connection fields.
