Accounting Settings

Depending on the whether QuickBooks is being used or not only the applicable options will be shown.

Job - The invoices for all Jobs will be pushed directly to the Job in QuickBooks, which will be automatically created by the Accounting connector.
Create Customer/Job in QuickBooks
This will depend on the setting from 'Create QuickBooks invoices in' setting. The options here are:
When a job is created - the Customer/Job will be created in QuickBooks after the Estimate has been won (the next time the Accounting Connector is run).
When an invoice is created - the Customer/Job will be created in QuickBooks once an invoice has been created (the next time the Accounting Connector is run).
Sync Account Address & Phone
If enabled, the Account address and phone number will be kept in sync between QuickBooks and Manage360 when the Accounting Connector is run.
