QuickBooks Setup

MoversSuite Administration > QuickBooks > QuickBooks Setup

 

Use this setup to define the connection credentials needed to interface with your QuickBooks Online Accounting system from the MoversSuite application.

 

Figure 4: QuickBooks Setup

 

 

IMPORTANT

Credentials, including a CompanID and AppName, must be established on your system along with having the QuickBooks Api module enabled prior to attempting to connect to QuickBooks.

QuickBooks Api is a RESTful service that handles connections to QuickBooks and processes the token verification.

Contact MoversSuite Support Team for more information.

 

 

Also, since MoversSuite stores certain data locally to make the integration function successfully during loss of Internet access, use this setup to refresh customers, vendors, revenue items, and expenses as well, especially if changes have been made to these areas within QuickBooks.
