Requirements before Syncing:
FieldPulse integrates with Quickbooks Desktop 2019 and newer.
We integrate with the Windows version of Quickbooks Desktop and do not support Quickbooks Desktop for MAC or any other systems.
You must use a computer that has access to Quickbooks Desktop. You can not use a server that has Quickbooks Desktop installed.
The setup must be completed in single-user mode within Quickbooks Desktop.
We support Contractor, Pro, Premier, and Enterprise editions of Quickbooks Desktop.
You must disable sleep mode on your computer in order for the sync to run.
Settings<Within Window<System<Power and Sleep< Set to ‘Never.’
If this is not disabled, the sync will not work.
You must have a stable internet connection or the connection will not work.
What information syncs over?
FieldPulse has a dual sync with Quickbooks Desktop. Our team will walk you through the integration after your initial sync. What’s most important is that your sleep mode is disabled so the connection is constantly running. This will ensure a successful sync and eliminate your need for double entry.
We do have a one-way sync option available upon request. Please reach out to support@fieldpulse.com if you prefer a one-way connection.
