to consort
Explanation:
The verb, 'to consort,' emphasizes the notions of 'union', 'accord' indicated in 'icchi'.

The transitive form would then accomplish the causative '-saseru.'

I am not quite sure about this one, but I think depending on the context, the verb 'to faciliate' might be used instead.

  -> semiologically, consort is the only word that could suffice 'union', 'accord', 'concord', and still holds together in both software-related context and causative/transaitive solution. Also, kindly consider that 'faciliate' might serve the context better.

disagree  Can Altinbay: I'm with Hogg 先生. But it's enshrine's homework or test, so...

一致 させる
to assimilate, make the same, make conform


Explanation:
It would help a great deal if you could provide the sentence, but below are some examples from the ALC site:

一致させる
conform to // tie in
一致させる
【自他動】homologize
一致させる
【他動】match // mate // square
〜を一致させる〔形状・性質・考え方などにおいて〕
【他動】conform
一致させる〔言行・帳尻などを〕
【他動】reconcile
一致させる〔考え方などを〕
【他動】assimilate
経費を抑制して一致させるのは難しい
It is hard to bring expenses in line.

agree  Maynard Hogg: Stella, I would advise that you at least scan 英辞郎's offerings for settling for that non-starter "consort."
