Anyone trying to integrate Shopify with Quickbooks Online?

Topic summary

The original poster migrated from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online for better Shopify integration but found most apps only sync sales data, not inventory adjustments like purchase orders, shrinkage, or physical counts.

Key Challenges Identified:

  • Available integration apps lack comprehensive inventory asset tracking between Shopify and QBO
  • Journal entries for inventory changes aren’t automatically generated
  • QB Desktop users face uncertain future support as Intuit focuses on the online version

Solutions Mentioned:

  • Bookkeep app: One user paid for this service and hired a Shopify expert for setup; manages inventory through Shopify’s Stocky app instead of QB Online
  • Shoplink integrator: Works with QB Desktop to transfer orders seamlessly
  • Alternative platforms: Webgility (robust but complex), Skyvia (no-code automation), and QuickBooks Online Global by Intuit (requires extra configuration)

Current Status: Discussion remains open with no definitive solution for comprehensive inventory-to-accounting integration. Multiple users express frustration with the migration process and limited support options.

We use a shopify website and a what’s called Shoplink intagrater app that shift orders from our website right into QBS Desktop. Works flawless!

I really could use a Shopify specialist. Tired of have to play the chat game. I want to go back to phone conversation.

Hope this helps!
