This page helps a workspace admin connect your QuickBooks Online companies to Mercora, check that each connection still works, and disconnect them. Each connected company is one sign-in by an admin.
QuickBooks Online must be enabled for your workspace first. It is a workspace module, off by default, and only workspace admins can open its page.While the module is off, admins see QuickBooks Online marked Coming soon under Settings → Integrations, the tile can’t be opened, and its page isn’t reachable. New connections are refused. To enable it, a workspace admin turns on QuickBooks Online under Settings → Workspace → Modules. See Modules.

What it’s used for today

Connecting a company is the first step of the QuickBooks integration. Today Mercora reads nothing from your books and writes nothing to them, beyond the company’s name. The connection lets you confirm that Mercora can reach the company, ready for later steps.

Connect a company

1

Open the QuickBooks Online page

Go to Settings → Integrations and click QuickBooks Online. If the tile reads Coming soon, the module is off: see the note above.
2

Start connecting

Under Connect a company, click Connect QuickBooks. QuickBooks opens so you can pick the company and approve Mercora’s access.
3

Back in Mercora

The page confirms “QuickBooks company connected.” and lists the company under Companies as Connected, with who connected it and when.
Repeat for each company you want to connect. If the page says QuickBooks isn’t set up yet, or Connect QuickBooks is unavailable, the connection hasn’t been prepared for your workspace and there is nothing to connect: ask the Mercora team.

Check a connection

Click Check on a company. Mercora asks QuickBooks for the company’s name and, if the connection works, confirms “QuickBooks answered for” the company. If QuickBooks refuses the saved sign-in, the company shows Reconnect needed, with QuickBooks’ reason. Click Reconnect and approve access again; the same company keeps its row.

Disconnect a company

Click Disconnect on the company and confirm. Mercora gives up its access to that company and clears the saved sign-in. If QuickBooks doesn’t confirm the disconnect, Mercora still disconnects on its side and tells you so. Then also remove Mercora under Apps in QuickBooks.
Disconnect your companies before the QuickBooks Online module is turned off. While the module is off, the page can’t be reached, so you can’t disconnect from Mercora; saved sign-ins stay stored but unused.
