Mapping from EverLogic to QuickBooks

This article outlines General Steps for Mapping. Anytime a new item is added, ie new payment type, product, tax or fee. You must create and map item in QuickBooks first, then in EverLogic.

The illustration below shows how your daily transactions in EverLogic are integrated in QuickBooks. This information streams from the EverLogic Map Code to the QuickBooks Item set in the Map Code, which is tied to the QuickBooks Account. Think of it as a long "if then" statement, "if this, then that" repeated over a bunch of times. It is helpful to keep this illustration in mind when navigating this process.

The following steps will help you achieve your goal. 

IMPORTANT:  EverLogic can be mapped to QuickBooks Online or Desktop versions. 

    • QuickBooks Online - minimum requirement of Plus or higher
    • QuickBooks Desktop - requires Pro Edition or better

REMINDER:  If you are using QuickBooks Desktop, be sure to have it open on the workstation to map EverLogic to QuickBooks and anytime you transmit data to QuickBooks from EverLogic.
