QuickBooks: Synchronization of Classes

Track and Manage Sales

Classes are only available to clients who use Quickbooks synchronization.

The “Classes” feature allows to track sales as well as create separate sales reports for the selected class in Quickbooks. In one invoice services and products may have different classes.

To access the classes, please navigate to the “Quickbooks Management” section in the “Company management” module.

Access Classes

To create a new class, please click on the green “+” sign and fill in the information in the pop-up window.

Create new class

A class may serve as a “parent class” or as a “Child” class to another class. “Parent Class” hierarchically groups a class or a set of classes (child classes). If you do not choose a “Parent Class”, the newly created task will automatically become a “Parent Class” itself.

  • To edit an already existing class, please choose the class from the drop-down menu and click on the “Pencil” icon.
  • To make the already existing class inactive, please choose the class from the drop-down menu and click on the “Eye” icon.
  • To make a class that was previously deactivated active, please choose the deactivated class from the drop-down menu and click on the “Eye” icon as well. The deactivated class has “(deleted)” written next to the “class” name.

Possible actions

Classes are available in “Create a New Estimate” for services and products:

Create new estimate

  • If the service/product has already been assigned a QB class, it will automatically show in the “QB Class” section.
  • To change/add QB Class in “Create a New Estimate”, please click on the drop-down menu and choose the appropriate class from the list.

To add a class to a service, please navigate to the Estimates → Estimates Services.

Estimate services

Please click on the “Pencil” icon to edit. In the pop-up window, please choose the appropriate class and click “Save”.
