Hear from a satisfied customer

"The MaintainX integration with QuickBooks Online transformed our procurement and invoicing workflows. Our goal was to streamline operations and reduce double entry, and the MaintainX team went above and beyond to guide us through the process. Now, our maintenance and accounting records are in sync, saving us valuable time on invoicing. The level of visibility across our organization is much better, making sure we keep the right parts stocked while staying within our budget."

FAQ

Can I create QuickBooks Online invoices based on specific work orders only?

Yes, you can use the work order Category field in MaintainX. Simply set the Category to Invoice when you are ready to trigger invoice creation in QuickBooks Online.

Will invoices be sent to my customers immediately?

No, you can generate invoices and review and approve them before sending them to your customers.

I have parent and subaccounts in QuickBooks Online. Can this structure be mapped to MaintainX as well?

Yes, your MaintainX integration consultant can map your preferred QuickBooks Online accounts structure to MaintainX.

Can I invoice my customers through QuickBooks Online at the end of the month, instead of after every completed work order?

Yes, we recommend triggering estimates for each completed work order. When you are ready to invoice your customers, you can group the estimates in QuickBooks Online and generate an invoice. Estimates will automatically include the Work Order Description from MaintainX. These descriptions will appear as line items on final customer invoices for context.

I am using the Canadian version of QuickBooks Online and sales tax codes are required. How does this work with MaintainX?

The MaintainX and QuickBooks Online integration will default Canadian tax codes to the location of the customer receiving the invoice. The tax code will be applied to every line item on the invoice.
