How does Pet Sitter Plus integrate with my QuickBooks Online Account?

When invoices, payments and any other financial transactions are created in Pet Sitter Plus, all the data can be immediately synced over to your QuickBooks Online account, even creating a basic client record if one does not exist in QuickBooks already.

Important - there are some things you need to be aware of:
The integration is “one way only." When Pet Sitter Plus is synced with QuickBooks Online, data such as client information, itemized invoices and associated payments are copied from Pet Sitter Plus to QuickBooks, not the other way around.
Financial transactions can be synced as far back in time as required in batches of 300.
Pet Sitter Plus can only be connected to one QuickBooks Online Integration. If you want to disconnect a QuickBooks online integration and reconnect to a different QuickBooks instance, you will need to Contact Support.
Pet Sitter Plus can only integrate with QuickBooks Online Plans for Essentials, Plus and Advanced. The Self Employed and Simple Start Plans will not be able to Integrate with Pet Sitter Plus.
Invoices with a zero value are automatically excluded from syncing with QuickBooks Online due to there being no financial information on the invoices.
