QuickBooks Online consultants

Q: Does QuickBooks Online have an n8n node?

Yes. The QuickBooks n8n node supports creating and reading customers, invoices, items, bills, and payments. It uses OAuth2 authentication, which means the connection is secure and token-based. You can build workflows that create invoices, update customer records, and retrieve financial data directly from n8n.

Q: Can invoices be created automatically in QuickBooks from our CRM?

Yes. We build n8n workflows where a deal reaching 'Won' status in your CRM triggers invoice creation in QuickBooks. The workflow maps the client details, line items, and amounts from the CRM record to the QuickBooks invoice format, then creates a draft or sent invoice depending on your preference.

Q: How do you handle GST in automated QuickBooks workflows?

We configure the n8n workflows to apply the correct GST codes based on the type of sale or expense. For Australian businesses, this means mapping items to the appropriate BAS reporting categories. The workflow respects your existing QuickBooks GST settings, so nothing changes in how you report to the ATO.

Q: Can time tracking data from other apps feed into QuickBooks for invoicing?

Absolutely. We connect time tracking tools like Clockify, Toggl, or Harvest to QuickBooks via n8n. Approved billable hours are converted into invoice line items with the correct rate, project reference, and description. This eliminates the weekly chore of manually entering billable time.

Q: Is it safe to automate payments and financial data?

We build financial automation workflows with appropriate safeguards. This includes approval steps for transactions above set thresholds, validation checks on data before it's written to QuickBooks, and logging of every automated action for audit purposes. Your finance team stays in control.

Q: Can QuickBooks data be pulled into custom dashboards?

Yes. We build n8n workflows that extract financial data from QuickBooks on a schedule and push it into Google Sheets, Metabase, or other reporting tools. This is useful for creating management dashboards that combine financial data with operational metrics from other systems.

We can help you automate your business with QuickBooks Online and hundreds of other systems to improve efficiency and productivity. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss implementing QuickBooks Online.

About QuickBooks Online

QuickBooks Online is a cloud accounting platform used by small and medium-sized businesses to manage invoicing, expenses, payroll, GST, and financial reporting. It’s one of the most common accounting tools in Australia, and most businesses use it alongside several other apps for CRM, project management, and operations.

The problem is that data often gets stuck in QuickBooks. Invoices are created manually, expense categorisation requires human input, and financial reports are only as current as the last time someone updated the books. Using n8n, we connect QuickBooks Online to the rest of your business systems so data flows automatically, invoices are generated from other tools, and your books stay up to date without manual entry.

Osher builds QuickBooks Online integrations for Australian businesses that want their accounting to keep pace with their operations. Whether you need CRM deals to generate invoices, time tracking data to create billing entries, or expense receipts to be categorised automatically, our system integration team can set it up.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement QuickBooks Online

As QuickBooks Online consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate QuickBooks Online with integrate and automate 800+ tools.

Step 1

Audit Your Current Accounting Workflow

We review how your team currently uses QuickBooks Online, including what data is entered manually, which processes are time-consuming, and where errors tend to occur. This gives us a clear picture of what to automate.

Step 2

Identify Integration Points

We map out which other systems need to send data to or receive data from QuickBooks. Common examples include CRM systems for invoice generation, time tracking tools for billing, and expense apps for categorisation.

Step 3

Set Up OAuth2 Authentication

QuickBooks Online uses OAuth2 for API access. We configure the credentials in n8n, including the app registration with Intuit’s developer platform, token management, and automatic token refresh so the connection doesn’t break.

Step 4

Build and Test Workflows

Using the QuickBooks n8n node, we build each integration workflow. This includes field mapping between systems, GST code handling, and error handling for scenarios like duplicate invoices or missing customer records. Each workflow is tested with real data in your QuickBooks sandbox.

Step 5

Validate Financial Accuracy

We run the workflows against a set of test transactions and compare the results with what your team would have entered manually. This step ensures amounts, GST, account codes, and customer details all match before we switch to production.

Step 6

Go Live with Monitoring

The workflows are deployed to your production n8n instance with monitoring alerts for failures. We provide your finance team with documentation and training so they understand what’s automated, what still needs manual review, and how to troubleshoot common issues.
