ARTICLE FOR USERS IN THE USA WITH QUICKBOOKS INTEGRATION

There is a powerful TWO-WAY integration between Quickbooks and Brite, which allows you to seamlessly manage your accounts and payments in your BriteApp while automatically updating your Quickbooks account.

What Does TWO-WAY Mean?

Lots of systems are One-Way, but we give you the full power of a TWO-WAY integration - meaning both systems communicate in both directions.

This means that edits that you make in your BriteApp are pushed to Quickbooks, also reconciliations and edits that you make in Quickbooks are also fed into your BriteAccount. So everything is in sync, always!

To understand how the integration works, please see the videos below.

There are three parts to the training.
