Integrating your Lawcus account with Quickbooks Online can simplify your bookkeeping and accounting needs by providing a unidirectional sync of invoicing, payments, expenses, report analytics, and various other finance tracking needs. Your Lawcus data will be automatically routed to Quickbooks, but Quickbooks data will not be automatically sent to Lawcus.

If you are a paid user on Lawcus Standard, Plus, or Business pricing plans, you can integrate your Quickbooks account, whether new or existing.

Steps to Integrate Quickbooks with Lawcus

  1. Click on your User Avatar on the top, and select Settings from the available options.

  2. Expand the Apps and Integrations section, and click on Quickbooks.

  3. If you are new to Lawcus and have not set up accounts, you must do so before proceeding. Click here to check our guide on how to add bank accounts.

FAQ Section

FAQ1: Do QuickBooks updates automatically reflect in Lawcus?

Answer: Lawcus integrates with QuickBooks through a one-way sync system. This means that changes or updates made in your Lawcus account will automatically reflect in QuickBooks, but not vice versa.
