FAQ
Can I sync information from Quickbooks to Keela?
The integration is meant to be a one-way sync to transfer your donation and revenue information to Quickbooks. If you need to import data to Keela from Quickbooks, you can do this via an import.
Can I sync my information to more than one Quickbooks account?
Sorry! The sync is only for one Quickbooks account.
