Integromat can help with anything from simple but tedious tasks to more robust workplans. Here are a few ways Integromat can help you automate your Quickbooks intensive tasks.

1.) Create Quickbooks invoices for new WooCommerce orders

Integromat can easily link two apps together. For example, it can watch for orders on your e-commerce site and send out the invoice through your accounting software. In this first scenario, everytime a new order is created in WooCommerce, Integromat will automatically create a new invoice in Quickbooks.

2.) Update your Quickbooks invoice and send out an updated invoice when changes occur in a Shopify order

In this scenario, Integromat will watch for changes to your Shopify orders and reflect the changes in your Quickbooks invoices. It will start when a change occurs in a previous order. It will then search for the specific invoice via ID, number, or using a custom query and update the changes in the identified invoice. It will then sent out the updated invoice to the customer.

3.) Instantly send Quickbooks sales receipts after a payment is recieved

In this scenario, we will connect PayPal and Quickbooks. When a payment is received in PayPal, Quickbooks will be prompted to create a receipt of sale and send the receipt out to the customer.

Integromat has the ability to listen for new events in Quickbooks. So, it can listen for new invoices. When a new invoice is made, it will then be downloaded as a PDF for you to add it as a new row in Google Sheets, save it to Dropbox and send it in an email to your customer all at the same time; all thanks to a handy router.
