QUICKBOOKS ONLINE AND QUICKBOOKS DESKTOP

THE FIELD WORKS IN LINARC. YOUR BOOKS QUICKBOOKS.

Connect QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop once. Project records move from the job to your books without anyone typing them a second time.

One shared schedule across every trade
[01]// WHAT SYNCS

EIGHT RECORD TYPES. ONE DIRECTION EACH.

Every record has one place it gets entered. Changes move from that system to the other one, and only that way. You decide on day one whether employee records start in Linarc or in QuickBooks. The rest start in Linarc, because the work that creates them happens on the job.

HOW DIRECTION WORKS

This is not two-way sync. A record moves from the system where it is entered to the other one. It does not come back. Payroll sends calculated wages, not timesheet hours or rates.

[02]// HOW IT RUNS

SET IT UP ONCE. LET IT RUN.

SYNC IN THE BACKGROUND

Once records are mapped, they move on their own. A vendor, a cost code or a project set up in Linarc shows up in QuickBooks without a second entry from anyone in the office.

PUSH A BATCH WHEN YOU WANT CONTROL

Pick records across categories, stage them, look them over, and push them to QuickBooks in one step. Useful at month end, on a new project, or after a cleanup. Sync status for the whole company shows in one view.

INVOICES GO OUT, PAID STATUS COMES BACK

Invoices created in Linarc go to QuickBooks. When your bookkeeper marks one Paid in QuickBooks, Linarc shows it as Paid. Nobody opens the ledger to tell the PM what cleared.

EMPLOYEES, WITH A SORTING STEP

On QuickBooks Online, a new employee added in whichever system you chose for employees appears in the other within moments. Employees coming in from QuickBooks land in a drafts list in Linarc, so you choose who gets a Linarc login and when.

[03]// SETUP

THREE STEPS. THEN IT STAYS CONNECTED.

01
REQUEST
Tell your Linarc account admin you run QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop.
02
PROVISION
A dedicated space for QuickBooks is set up inside your Linarc account.
03
CONNECT
Sign into Intuit from Linarc once, map your accounts, and choose what syncs.
QUICKBOOKS DESKTOP

Pair it with Linarc once through the QuickBooks Web Connector, using the one-time authorization key from Linarc. The authorization saves on the machine that runs QuickBooks, so there are no repeated sign-ins.

[04]// WHAT YOUR TEAM STOPS DOING

THE SECOND ENTRY IS GONE.

Without the connection, the same record gets typed in Linarc and then again in QuickBooks. With it, your team stops:

01
Re-keying employees, vendors, cost codes and projects
02
Rebuilding contractor budgets in QuickBooks
03
Entering cost and expenditures twice
04
Re-entering invoices and payroll
05
Logging into QuickBooks to find out whether an invoice got paid
WHAT THIS MEANS
Finance keeps QuickBooks and the process they already trust. The field keeps Linarc. The numbers in both match because they were entered once.

[05]// QUESTIONS CONTROLLERS ASK

QUESTIONS CONTROLLERS ASK

Is this a two-way sync?

No. Each record type moves one way, from the system where it is entered to the other. Vendors, cost codes, projects, budgets, costs, invoices and payroll are entered in Linarc. Employees can start on either side. The one thing that reads back is invoice paid status. Vendors and cost codes already in QuickBooks are not imported into Linarc.

Which QuickBooks versions work?

QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop, both live today. A company connects one accounting system to Linarc at a time.

Do invoices sync?

Yes. Invoices created in Linarc go to QuickBooks. When QuickBooks marks an invoice Paid, Linarc shows Paid. Invoices cannot be created or edited in QuickBooks and pushed into Linarc.

How fast does it move?

Employee records on QuickBooks Online move within moments of being added. On QuickBooks Desktop, employees move on the automatic sync or a staged push. Every other record syncs automatically or by a manual staged push, depending on its Auto-Create and Auto-Update settings.

What changes for the finance team?

Paying bills, collecting payments and closing the books stay in QuickBooks. Invoices get built in Linarc and land in QuickBooks ready to collect. What goes away is retyping records that already exist in Linarc. Running Sage Intacct or Acumatica instead? Linarc connects to those too.
