QuickBooks Online is the go-to accounting choice for many real estate professionals. Apination automates and extends your workflow by connecting dotloop & QuickBooks Online.
This integration focuses on automatically sending and keeping in sync financials from your loops with your QuickBooks Online. While the QuickBooks sync can be configured to fit even the most unique cases, to get you started quickly, we’ve pre-configured two syncs.
Sync Desposits
This workflow will help you track the deposits you collect and log in dotloop. The amount you enter into Earnest Money Amount will create a deposit transaction in QuickBooks Online. Sync monitors Loops of all transaction types and statuses (with few exceptions below) and runs when you update information in your loop, which will let you update the deposit amount in dotloop and the update will automatically sync to QuickBooks.
When you setup the sync, select the “Deposit To” account. Usually this is your Trust, Title or Escrow account, and choose the “Associated Account”.
The the sync creates a deposit, it will date it by “Contract Agreement Date” and add a loop name into Deposit Description and Memo to help you identify the deposit.
Here is an example of the QuickBooks Online Deposit Screen:
And don’t worry, sync only monitors your dotloop updates moving forward from the time you turn it on. It will also ignore archived loops and loops with closing dates older than two weeks. We’ve put these fail safe’s in on purpose to prevent the sync from un-intelligently duplicating your old data in QuickBooks.
Sync Commissions Income
This workflow will sync gross “Commissions” you receive from transactions and enter a deposit transaction in QuickBooks Online. This sync monitors Loops of all transaction types with status of Sold, Leased or Done, and only runs when your transaction reaches this status and your Gross Commissions are likely finalized. Once the deposit is synced to QuickBooks, updating your “Closing Date”, “Loop Name” or “Commissions Amount” in dotloop, will automatically sync the changes to QuickBooks.
As with the deposit syncing workflow, we’ve built in some fail safes to guard against un-intelligently syncing your old data to QuickBooks, and the sync will ignore any of your loops that were closed more than two weeks ago.
In Workflow Settings choose the “Deposit To” account and “Associated Account”. The Deposit will be dated “ Closing Date” and we’ll add the loop name into Deposit Description and Memo to help you identify them.
