Sync Invoices with Quickbooks

Modified on Wed, 17 Apr 2024 at 11:55 AM

When Invoices are created in Pet Sitter Plus and your system is connected to the QuickBooks Online Integration, your Invoice data is replicated automatically in your QuickBooks account.

The invoice is added to the “Data in Next Sync” queue. This is an automated process and synchronizes items hourly.

Tip: If you need to synchronize items immediately, go to Connect > Accounting Systems > QuickBooks and press the “Sync Now” button. This will trigger the synchronization process on demand.

Following the synchronization of an invoice, the invoice and all its service details will be available under the client account transaction list in QuickBooks Online. When the synchronization involves a first invoice for a client, then the client will be created (or matched) and / or updated at this time. See Are Client Accounts Added to QuickBooks?.
