jakebur01 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hey, I was wondering if any of you all could give me information on how to go about getting my orders into an accounting program like quickbooks. What should be the process? What could I write the data into in order to be able to import the data into quickbooks? thank you, Jake Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/53503-quickbooks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakus_maximus Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 You probably are going to need to think about this in reverse. Meaning, start with Quickbooks. What format can you import with that application? If you can import from a CSV or Excel file, then I would look at what the structure of that import needs to be in (again you will need to look at what Quickbooks accepts or requires). From that information, you can then look at how you want to export your orders from web based to that CSV or Excel file. That's the best starting point I can give you. FYI - For those that did not know, Quickbooks is a personal/small business accounting application.

cmgmyr Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Quickbooks has an API that you could use. http://developer.intuit.com/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/53503-quickbooks/#findComment-265521 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul2463 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 quickbooks indifinous file format is a .iif file, it can accept XML files as well but the format has to be perfect, there are integrators out there but you have to pay for them such as <a href="http://www.qodbc.com/qodbc.htm"> QODBC </a> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/53503-quickbooks/#findComment-265525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
