Options for sending invoices and payments
Auto-Send Payouts as Deposits
If you have Shopmonkey Payments enabled you can control which QuickBooks asset account your Shopmonkey payouts will be sent to. You can also decide where your payment transaction fees will be recorded, which will alleviate the need to manually record your fees separately from your deposits.
To have Shopmonkey payouts automatically be sent to QuickBooks as deposits, simply click on the Auto-Send Payouts as Deposits toggle, and then choose the desired accounts:
If at any time you need to manually send a payout to QuickBooks (perhaps for a payout received before turning the Auto-Send Payouts as Deposits toggle on), you can go to your Settings > Payments > Payouts page, click on the payout, and then click Send to QuickBooks as deposit:
Auto-Send Invoices and Payments
When it comes to sending an invoice to QuickBooks, you have the option to have invoices and payments be sent automatically instead of being prompted to do so. Any changes made to an invoice will be sent to QuickBooks every 2 minutes. Click on the Auto-Send Invoices and Payments toggle to turn these settings on or off:
Send Payment Terms
When toggled on, for future invoices, QuickBooks and Shopmonkey invoice payment terms will be set to match. Use the drop downs to line up the terms between Shopmonkey and QuickBooks:
Note: You may need to update term definitions in QuickBooks to ensure an accurate match.
Sync Invoice Numbers
You can also choose to keep the Shopmonkey invoice number the same in QuickBooks:
Send Location
If you are managing multiple shop sites in one Quickbooks account, you can easily assign a default location to each of your Shopmonkey shops to ensure that all new and updated invoices will be associated with the correct location:
Send Invoice Info
Additionally, you can control whether or not invoice information sent to QuickBooks will appear in the Message on Invoice and/or Message on Statement fields of your QuickBooks invoices:
