Begin the Integration Sync and Sync Your Contacts With QBO

QuickBooks Online can be integrated with your Canopy account to help sync Contacts, Invoices, and Service Items between each application. Once connected, whenever a contact, invoice, or service item is created in Canopy, they will be automatically synced to QBO. Contacts and service items created in QBO will also be synced to Canopy. To link your Canopy account to QBO, first, navigate to your Settings page in Canopy.

Applicable Roles/Permissions/Licenses

1. Select Integrations from the left-side column.

2. Find the QBO integration and click Connect.

If the Connect button is greyed out, your account either does not have the Manage Integrations permission activated, or you are using a freemium or legacy account. To fix this, please upgrade your account to a paid account and ensure that your account is assigned a role with the Manage Integrations permission activated.

3. Enter your QBO login information in the pop-up window. Click Sign In.
