Updated over 3 weeks ago

When referring to QuickBooks object names they will be followed by a QB.

Companies (Customers & Vendors)

From Digit → To QuickBooks

  • When a new Company is created in Digit it is synced to QuickBooks as a Customer (QB) and/or Vendor (QB)

    • Synced as a Vendor (QB) if in Digit they have the “Vendor” property

    • Synced as a Customer (QB) if they have the “Customer” property

      • Since Company may be synced as one or both, the name is appended with "(v)" for vendors and "(c)" for customers because QuickBooks requires unique names

  • When a Company name or address is updated in Digit the changes are sent to QuickBooks

    • Note: When an address changes in Digit it is only synced when another field changes as well

  • Not synced: When a Company is deleted in Digit it is NOT deleted in QuickBooks, you would need to do this manually in QuickBooks

From QuickBooks → To Digit

  • Not synced after initial sync: During the initial sync only, Digit will pull in Customers (QB) and Vendors (QB) from QuickBooks

Items

From Digit → To QuickBooks

  • All Items are pushed as Non-Inventory Products (QB)

  • Only Item name and bill/invoice ledger accounts are synced to QuickBooks

  • All new Items use the same selected ledger accounts that you can see in your integration settings on Digit

  • Products (QB) that already exist in QuickBooks will not have their ledger accounts overwritten

From QuickBooks → To Digit

  • Inventory, Non-Inventory, and Inventory Assembly* Products (QB) created in QuickBooks are synced to Digit

    • Only names are synced to Digit Items

  • We have no way to pull the Unit of Measure (UoM) from QuickBooks

    • In Digit the Default stock UoM will default to pieces (pcs)

    • Items created from QB are saved in draft status so that Default stock UoM can be customized before making the Item active

* at this time Inventory Assembly items can be synced to Digit from QuickBooks but changes will not sync back to QuickBooks

Sales Orders

From Digit → To QuickBooks

  • Digit Sales Orders are created as an Invoice (QB) in QuickBooks

  • The due date is set to 30 days from the creation date on the Sales Order.

  • QBD and QBO handle Addresses on Sales Orders differently:

    • QBD: Addresses will sync from the Sales Order

    • QBO: Will use the addresses defined for a given Customer (QB)

  • Currently ignores payment adjustments, discounts, and taxes

From QuickBooks → To Digit

  • Not synced

Purchase Orders

From Digit → To QuickBooks

  • Purchase Orders are pushed to QuickBooks as a Bill (QB)

  • The due date is set to 30 days from the creation date on the Purchase Order

  • Currently ignores payment adjustments, discounts, and taxes
