Quickbooks

Quickbooks invoice, receipt, and payment notifications can all be sent via SMS when this integration is active. Contacts can also instantly be synced to Text Request in real-time when you add them to Quickbooks.

How do you set up Contact Sync?

These contacts will be added to a group called Quickbooks Customers, which will automatically be updated in real-time once the initial sync is complete. The initial sync can take up to a full day to complete.
