25: Syncing your Payroll Data with QuickBooks

To link your Hourly payroll with QuickBooks, click Settings on the left. Open Integrations and click the Connect link for QuickBooks.

You’ll have to sign into your Intuit account from here. Enter your company name into the field and click Create, then click Connect. 

Returning to the Integrations / QuickBooks page on the Hourly platform, the Connected status verifies the two accounts are linked.

On the Mapping tab, each payment category on the left must be mapped to a QuickBooks account. Choose the relevant account from the dropdown menu next to each category. Click Save when finished.

On the Settings tab, choose whether QuickBooks will be synced each time you run payroll, or whether you will sync it manually. Also choose whether journal entry dates will be listed by pay date or end of pay period.

When QuickBooks is synced manually, you can find the Sync to QuickBooks option in any payroll that’s already been paid.
