Jortt connection and integration settings
Settings that apply to Jortt as a whole, such as defaults for currency, tax rate, country and language, and updating existing customers.
Updated November 9, 2026
These settings apply to Jortt as a whole, not to one flow. They hold defaults that several flows use. You find them in your integration under Settings.
What these settings cover
- Default currencies and tax rates, for example for prices, shipping costs, payment costs, billing costs and commission. Flows use them when the data does not contain a value.
- The default language and country code.
- Whether APIcenter updates existing customers in Jortt, including their name and the name of the contact person. This applies to Send customers to Jortt.
Some settings in the list are generic and have no use for Jortt, for example the stock value: Jortt has no stock flows.
When to change them
- When you set up the integration for the first time.
- When your Jortt administration uses other defaults, such as another currency or VAT rate.
- When you do or do not want APIcenter to overwrite customer data that you maintain in Jortt.
Settings for one flow, such as the order state of the invoices you get or the way an order is sent, are on the Settings tab of that flow. The article of each flow explains them, for example Send sales orders to Jortt.
You enter the connection details when you connect Jortt. See Connect Jortt to APIcenter.

CurrenciesUpdate existing contacts
Customer SettingsThis setting has no effect for Jortt. Jortt customers have no separate contacts in APIcenter, and none of the Jortt flows uses this setting, so you can leave it as it is. To control whether the first and last name of an existing customer are updated, use Update name of existing contacts. On by default.
Update existing customer accounts
Customer SettingsDecides whether APIcenter updates a customer that already exists in Jortt when you send customers to Jortt. APIcenter finds the existing customer by email address. When this is off, the existing customer stays as it is in Jortt. When APIcenter sends a sales order, it never updates existing customers in Jortt. On by default.
Update name of existing contacts
Customer SettingsDecides whether APIcenter overwrites the first name and last name of an existing customer in Jortt when you send customers to Jortt. When this is off, the first and last name that are currently in Jortt are kept. This only has effect when Update existing customer accounts is on. On by default.
Update name of existing customer accounts
Customer SettingsDecides whether APIcenter overwrites the name of an existing customer in Jortt when you send customers to Jortt, which is the company name for a company. When this is off, the name that is currently in Jortt is kept. This only has effect when Update existing customer accounts is on. On by default.
Update relation to company of existing contacts
Customer SettingsThis setting has no effect for Jortt. APIcenter does not use a relation between a contact and a company in any of the Jortt flows, so you can leave it as it is.
Default country code
General Integration settingThis setting has no effect for Jortt. APIcenter does not use a default country code in any of the Jortt flows, so you can leave it as it is. Options: BE, DE, ES, FR, NL and UK. Default: NL.
Default language (local) to use
General Integration settingThis setting has no effect for Jortt. APIcenter does not use a default language and region (locale) in any of the Jortt flows, so you can leave it as it is. A locale is written as language_COUNTRY, for example nl_NL. Default: nl_NL.
Default language to use
General Integration settingThe language APIcenter uses when an order contains no language. The standard data mapping to Jortt does not send a language, so for Jortt you normally do not need to change this. Options: DA (Danish), DE (German), GB (English), ES (Spanish), FR (French), IT (Italian), NL (Dutch), PL (Polish), PT (Portuguese), SV (Swedish) and TR (Turkish). Default: NL.
Use stock value
Stock & Warehouse SettingsThis setting has no effect for Jortt. None of the Jortt flows (get customers, get sales orders, get payments, send customers and send sales orders) uses stock, so you can leave it as it is. Options: Actual, Economic, Stock minus reservations and Available. Default: Available.
Default tax rate billing costs
Tax & Tax RatesDefault tax rate commission
Tax & Tax RatesDefault tax rate payment costs
Tax & Tax RatesDefault tax rate prices
Tax & Tax RatesDefault tax rate shipping costs
Tax & Tax RatesAPIcenter currently does not read this setting for Jortt. For shipping costs whose rate cannot be worked out from the amounts in the data, APIcenter uses Default tax rate prices instead. Change that setting if you need another VAT percentage for shipping costs. Default: 21.
