How it works

Sonic Sync We are pleased to reintroduce our integration with QuickBooks Online (previously known as DataSync).  This app allows merchants to export transactions and orders to QuickBooks Online. Features include automated daily syncs, as well as the ability to choose a past date to start syncing your transactions from. All data is synced with Order & Product item information from the Poynt Register & select 3rd party apps 

 

Step 1: Log into your Poynt.net account and visit the “Accounting” page.  Click on the Connect button next to QuickBooks Online.

Step 8:  Now that you've confirmed Poynt data is flowing through, it's time to sync your previous transactions.  We recommend you sync transactions starting from 1 year prior.

The initial sync will take time, depending on how far back you choose to go.  You can check the status of the sync by going back to the Accounting tab in Poynt HQ.
