QBO set up

Associating your e-commerce business with QuickBooks Online (QBO) can be done seamlessly, @jls100. We'll provide details to help you connect your sales channels and bank accounts while ensuring all your inventory items get imported into your company file.

Before anything else, please know that QBO currently works with apps like Shopify, eBay, and Amazon sales channels. Additionally, stores for any channel can only be connected one at a time and can be integrated only after the first store is connected. You'll then want to click 'Connect a sales channel' in the Overview tab.

The inventory management feature in QB Online offers limited functionality. You must have a third-party inventory management app as a hub to sync between QBO and your marketplaces.
