Units and QuickBooks Integration

In DPS, enter unit transactions to charge labor and expenses to projects at a flat rate.

When you charge units to a project, if the units have costs set up for them, the debit and credit associated with the unit cost will be sent to QuickBooks Online as a journal entry. Billing amounts entered for units are included on billing invoices created in DPS for customers.

In the DPS desktop application, you:

1. Set up units and their costs in Settings > Units.
2. Enter unit transactions in Transaction Center > Transaction Entry. Select Units or Units by Project as the transaction type.
3. Post the unit transactions in Transaction Center > Transaction Posting.

After you enter and post unit transactions in DPS, the journal entry with the unit costs is added to QuickBooks Online the next time that the updating occurs between DPS and QuickBooks Online.

In QuickBooks Online, you see the DPS journal entries in the following locations:

• Reports > Accountant Reports > Journal
• Accounting > Chart of Accounts
• Search (magnifying glass icon in the toolbar) > Advanced Search: In the transactions search field, select Journal Entries.
