How to connect QuickBooks Online to SKULabs:

  1. Make sure you have subscribed to QuickBooks Online Plus or Advanced plan because some QuickBooks API features are not supported on the QuickBooks Online Essentials subscription.

  2. In QuickBooks, click the gear icon and go to Account and settings > Sales. Select Edit next to "Sales form content", make sure that "Shipping" is enabled, and select Save. This lets SKULabs sync order shipping charges.

  3. In QuickBooks, navigate to the Taxes page and select Set up sales tax. Learn more about sales tax setup in QuickBooks Online here.

  4. In SKULabs, go to the add QuickBooks page and select Connect to QuickBooks.

  5. Optionally enable SKULabs to overwrite inventory levels in QuickBooks by navigating to your stock sync settings. Warning: Before enabling, make sure you've read and understand how SKULabs acts as a master of inventory, and that any items or kits you've linked to QuickBooks listings have up-to-date inventory counts.

  6. In SKULabs, configure your accounting settings to choose the data you want to sync to QuickBooks Online.


Can I connect more than one QuickBooks company?

Yes, with one limit:

  • Into SKULabs (inbound): you can connect several QuickBooks companies. SKULabs imports orders and listings from each one.

  • Out to QuickBooks (accounting sync): SKULabs sends sales receipts, invoices and purchase orders to one QuickBooks company only: the first active QuickBooks store in your account. The accounting settings apply to that company.

If you need accounting sync to several QuickBooks companies, each company needs its own SKULabs account. Contact our support team to discuss your setup.
