Integrating with QuickBooks Online

Create a Credit Memo

OBJECTIVE

To create a Credit Memo with ConstructionOnline and QuickBooks integration

BACKGROUND

ConstructionOnline paired with QuickBooks makes creating and sending Credit Memos easy. Credit Memos are created by making a Change Order with a negative cost assigned. Once the Change Order is approved, it can be sent to QuickBooks. When sent to QuickBooks, the negative Change Order converts to a Credit Memo.

THINGS TO CONSIDER

  • Completing the Company Integration, connecting a ClientLink user, and connecting the project are all required before Change Orders can be sent to QuickBooks Online.
  • Only ConstructionOnline Company Administrators can sync ConstructionOnline and QuickBooks Online.
  • Change Orders must be approved before sending to QuickBooks Online.
