QuickBooks Connector

The QuickBooks Connector allows you to move data into and out of QuickBooks financial software. The Connector connects directly to the QuickBooks company data file (*.QBW) or online account and enables you to query, add, modify, and delete various types of records including Accounts, Customers, Sales Orders, Invoices, and many more.

Connector Configuration

Configuring a connector to communicate with QuickBooks requires the setup of two different components, the connection and connector operation. This design allows for reusability of the components, which contain connection settings such as username, password, etc. Once your connection and connector operation are built, you will need to set up your connector within the process model. When your connector is configured properly within your process, Boomi AtomSphere will be able to map to and from virtually any system using the QuickBooks connector to retrieve data from or send data to the QuickBooks application.

Prerequisites

General

• You must have QuickBooks administrator rights.
• Use the QuickBooks Interface Documentation for specific QuickBooks object and field reference.

For Desktop Editions

• An Atom must be deployed to the machine where a QuickBooks client application is installed.
• IMPORTANT Because QuickBooks is a desktop client-only application, the Atom must run as a console instead of as a Windows service. The Atom must be running under the same Windows user as the QuickBooks client was installed, and that Windows user must be logged into the machine at all times.
• The Atom must have access to the company data file (*.QBW file) if the data file resides on a different machine than the client.
• You will need to configure QuickBooks to authorize Boomi to connect to your company file. Instructions are discussed in the Connection configuration.

For Online Edition

• You must already have a QuickBooks Online account. You will need to obtain a connection ticket to authorize Boomi to connect to your account. Instructions are discussed in the Connection configuration.
