I’ve just started using a new application from Intuit called Quickbooks Connect. Like all of Intuits new Workplace Applications, it uses the cloud to sync with your desktop Quickbooks. From any Internet connection and most smartphones, you can then access the data from your Quickbooks. You can view customer contact information, transactions and balances. You can create new customers, estimates, invoices & sales receipts. These transactions will sync back to your desktop Quickbooks.
Quickbbooks Connect is priced as a monthly service with fees starting at $9.95/month for a single user. You can test it out for free, to see it in action. For more information about Quickbooks Connect or to try it out, visit http://workplace.intuit.com/appcenter/moreInfo.aspx?AppID=3274.
You cannot receive payments from QB Connect
You’re correct, Robin. I’ve updated the blog.
I’m able to receive payment, but I am finding a number of things that just don’t work. Printing, for example, results in a form that is missing data…the item description prints, but not the qty and amt, although the total prints. In general I like the qbconnect idea, but it seems like their execution is very weak.
