Switch in from QuickBooks

Pull items, vendors, customers and open purchase orders from the connected sandbox company, or upload QuickBooks CSV exports.

Partly in the demo

Built against the Intuit sandbox company only. CSV upload works without a connection.

Live pull

QuickBooks stays your ledger, so this is a one-time read of the records Lockstock needs. Connect first on the QuickBooks screen, then pick QuickBooks in Switch in and press Pull from QuickBooks.

  • Comes in: items, vendors, customers and open purchase orders.
  • Read-only. Nothing is written to QuickBooks by a switch-in.
  • Totals: QuickBooks reports its own item count, stock value and open purchase order value, and the dry run compares them with what was staged.
  • Not connected? The screen says Connect QuickBooks first and links to the connection page.

Or upload files

If you would rather not connect, export these from QuickBooks as CSV and upload them like any other source.

A switch-in is not the connection

A switch-in brings records over once. The QuickBooks connection is what keeps vendors, customers and items level and lets you post journal entries. You will usually want both.
