CER132 Sync Error in Certinia Integration

If you see the error:

CER132: Insufficient access. Modify All Data permission required.

This means the Certinia user connected to Expensify does not have the required Modify All Data system permission, preventing syncing and exports from completing.

Why the CER132 Sync Error Happens in Certinia

The CER132 error typically indicates:

• The connected Certinia user lacks the Modify All Data permission.
• The integration user does not have sufficient system-level access.
• Certinia validation failed due to restricted user permissions.

The Certinia integration requires broad system access to create, update, and sync records.

This is a Certinia user permission issue, not a Workspace configuration issue.

FAQ

Can I Retry the Sync?

Yes. After enabling Modify All Data and selecting Sync Now, retry the sync or export. If the error persists, confirm the correct user profile was updated.

Does CER132 Mean My Reports Were Deleted?

Is CER132 Caused by Workspace Settings?

No. CER132 is triggered by missing system permissions in Certinia. Workspace accounting settings are not the cause.
