How it works

You can set up this integration via Zapier, a tool that automates workflows by connecting apps — without writing code. (Note: A paid Zapier plan may be required.) Alternatively, your IT/Developer resource or third-party integration service provider can reference MaintainX’s API documentation and configure the integration for you.

STEP 1:

Visit Zapier and sign in to your existing account, or sign up for a new one.

STEP 2:

Zapier enables you to set up integrations based on triggers and actions (called “Zaps”).

For example, you can create a Zap that enables you to generate an invoice in FreshBooks from a completed work order in MaintainX:

Select the trigger app and event:

  • App = MaintainX
  • Event = New Category on Work Order

Then select the action app and event:

  • App = FreshBooks
  • Event = Create Invoice

STEP 3:

Follow the instructions to ensure you get all the information you need for your invoice. For example, this can include:

  • Time to complete
  • Hours
  • Parts
  • Company name
  • Location
  • Billing address

STEP 4:

Test your Zap. Verify that your trigger and action are set up correctly. Rename your Zap so it can be easily identified in Zapier.

STEP 5:

Publish your Zap. With MaintainX and FreshBooks in sync, you can start auto-generating invoices based on completed work orders.

Note: Additional triggers and actions can be accessed via the dropdowns in Zapier. Follow the instructions to achieve your desired integration with MaintainX.

Requirements

  • Must have a FreshBooks plan.
  • Must have MaintainX's Premium or Enterprise Plan.
