Yes, GetLinked software interfaces FROM Opera through Micros 3700 as well as a stand-alone application
Opera (with Micros 3700) is the front-end property management software that is connected TO Micros 3700. Micros sets up, maintains and is solely responsible for the interface between their two products (Micros 3700 and Micros Opera). You may need to contact Micros or visit their web site for detail explanations of the inter-workings between 3700 and Opera.
GetLinked software operates the same way when installed with Micros 3700 stand-alone or with Opera attached.
GetLinked software imports the Micros 3700 Tracking Groups (64 total) that are defined within Micros 3700. The customer defines and sets up categories that define Opera (ex. Tracking Group 5 = Hotel-Room Service, etc.). GetLinked software imports these Tracking Groups and the transaction amounts to create balanced journal entries into your financial accounting system.
To know that the Opera system has been interfaced with your point of sale system you can run a Micros daily store report and view the descriptions on the report with amounts (ex. Hotel-Room Service $757.34). This transaction is what GetLinked software will import for you to transfer to your accounting system.
With Sage Business Vision, GetLinked software does transfer an ASCII formatted file that can be imported into financial accounting system. Business Vision has a import format containing the critical fields needed to create a journal entry such as Account Number, Transaction Number, Transaction Date, Debit Amount and Credit Amount. There are some additional fields that can be used, yet not as important. GetLinked software creates different formats based on which accounting system you use with most of them being direct interfaces.
