QuickBooks Desktop now syncs with AffinityLive

Quickbooks, from Intuit, is a very popular accounting system - especially in the US where it has around 85% market share. As many of our clients began asking for integration, late last year we released an update which allowed AffinityLive to connect to QuickBooks Online via Intuit Anywhere online services.

This update was great for those who had moved to the QuickBooks Online system, but at the time users of the desktop/installed versions weren't included.

After a few weeks of hard work, we've just released the ability to integrate AffinityLive with Quickbooks Desktop Edition (Windows Only). This means now you can create invoices in AffinityLive, and see them synchronized with QuickBooks Windows in both the Pro and Premier versions!

If you're interested in making the connection, you firstly need to have an Intuit online account. In order to create an account that can access your data, launch the Intuit Sync Manager within QuickBooks and follow the instructions.

Here's a summary of what you can with AffinityLive and QuickBooks:

• Import clients/contacts, invoices and payments from QuickBooks to AffinityLive.
• Import account/ledger codes from QuickBooks to AffinityLive for more accurate invoicing.
• Create invoices in AffinityLive that push to QuickBooks. New client/contacts will also be pushed.
• Receive payments in QuickBooks that will synchronize back to AffinityLive
• Optionally have invoices created directly in QuickBooks sync up to the company record in AffinityLive.
