How It Works
GetInvoice integrates with QuickBooks to automate your expense and bill management workflow. Our integration streamlines the process of entering receipts, bills, and invoices into QuickBooks while maintaining the security and accuracy of your financial data.
What We Do
GetInvoice performs three main functions with QuickBooks:
Vendor Information
Creates and updates vendor information
Expense and Bill Entries
Creates expense and bill entries with full details
Original Receipt Documents
Attaches original receipt documents to expenses
Authentication
- We use QuickBooks' official OAuth 2.0 authentication system
- You explicitly grant permission through QuickBooks' secure login
- GetInvoice never stores your credentials
- You can revoke access at any time through QuickBooks
Once the account is connected, only new invoices will be forwarded to QuickBooks.
Creating Expense and Bill Entries in QuickBooks
When you process an invoice or receipt through GetInvoice, you can decide to add it to QuickBooks:
Click the Add to QuickBooks button on the invoice actions button .... If you don't manually push the invoice, it won't be added to QuickBooks.
You'll see a modal with the following options, with values pulled from your QuickBooks account:
- Create a Bill or Expense
- Expense Category
- Payment Method
- Tax Treatment
Once you select the options, click the Add to QuickBooks button.
We check if the vendor exists in QuickBooks
- If new, we create a vendor profile
- If existing, we use the existing vendor
We create an expense or bill entry with:
- Full transaction details from our AI processing
- Correct currency handling
- Proper categorization, payment method and tax treatment based on your input
We attach the original document to the expense or bill entry
Once the entry is created succesfully, you will see a quick access button on GetInvoice to open the entry in QuickBooks
Currency Handling
- We respect your QuickBooks base currency
- For amounts in different currencies:
- We convert the amount to your base currency
- We maintain original currency information
