Integrating QuickBooks Online
About
Applies to: ONTRAPORT Plus and above.
Cloud Cart Connector is a commercial plugin for QuickBooks Online (QBO) that syncs selected purchase and contact information from ONTRAPORT into QBO. The plugin enables you to:
- Create new customers in QBO when a new Contact purchases in ONTRAPORT
- Sync current Contact information into QBO Customer database
- Create invoice payments in QBO from ONTRAPORT orders
Note: ONTRAPORT does not have a Product SKU field. To work around this you must manually update QBO to map the Product Name to the QBO SKU field. Cloud Cart Connector includes a method to upload a CSV file described at Cloud Cart Connector Support. As you add individual Products they can be mapped manually within QBO following the instructions found in this Mapping Product SKUs article.
