## Step 2: Map Your Sage Settings

Once connected, you’ll need to match Sonas transaction types and tax rates with your Sage configuration:

-  **Nominal Codes**: Map your Sage **nominal codes** to the corresponding **Sonas transaction categories** (e.g., venue hire, food, services).
    
-  **Tax Codes**: Match your Sage **tax codes** with the VAT/tax rates set in Sonas. This ensures smooth import and accurate reporting.

## Step 3: Save and Confirm Connection

After mapping your codes:
