Blade automatically syncs Blade Customers (Clients), Invoices, and Payments with QuickBooks so you don’t have to spend needless time entering this information in both tools!
Customer: When you add a new Customer to Blade, the Customer is automatically created in QuickBooks. If you edit Customer information in QuickBooks, it automatically syncs those changes to the Customer data in Blade! If you edit Customer data in Blade, those changes are automatically made in QuickBooks!
Invoice: When you add a new invoice in Blade, an invoice is automatically created in QuickBooks! Changes to the invoice in Blade are kept in sync in QuickBooks!
Payments: When you enter payment data for any given invoice in Blade, those same payment entries are made in QuickBooks, and vice versa! Changes to payments in QuickBooks or Blade are kept in sync in both tools!
That’s it! Save hours of time and all that associated labor cost trying to keep your restoration software in sync with QuickBooks Online. Sit back and let Blade do all the work for you!
NOTE: If you have disconnected Blade from QuickBooks Online from within QuickBooks via the QuickBooks marketplace, to reconnect to QuickBooks again you will first need to ‘Disconnect’ inside Blade, and then ‘Connect to QuickBooks’ again.
