Overview of QBI use

Top  Previous  Next

We suggest you perform the following in the following order from installation, configuration, initial mapping before attempting to use QBI for invoicing AyaNova completed service workorders into QuickBooks invoices.

 

 

1.Perform the Installation & Configuration to install and configure QBI for use with your QuickBooks company data file and the AyaNova database.

 

2.Perform the mapping of existing data between the two databases.

 

a.Clients
i.Link existing clients in both AyaNova and QuickBooks (either manually and/or via Auto-Link)
ii.Import non-linked clients from AyaNova to QuickBooks
iii.Import non-linked clients from QuickBooks to AyaNova

 

b.Vendors
i.Link existing vendors in both AyaNova and QuickBooks (either manually and/or via Auto-Link)
ii.Import non-linked vendors from AyaNova to QuickBooks
iii.Import non-linked vendors from QuickBooks to AyaNova (based on type of vendor)
1.(please note - if Wholesalers are not yet linked before importing QuickBooks Items into AyaNova, you will not be able to select those parts in AyaNova in purchase orders)

 

c.Service Rates
i.Link existing AyaNova Service Rates with QuickBooks (either manually and/or via Auto-Link)
ii.Import non-linked Service Rates from QuickBooks to AyaNova

 

d.Travel Rates
i.Link existing AyaNova Travel Rates with QuickBooks (either manually and/or via Auto-Link)
ii.Import non-linked  Travel Rates from QuickBooks to AyaNova

 

e.Parts
i.Link existing parts in both AyaNova and QuickBooks (either manually and/or via Auto-Link)
ii.Import non-linked parts from QuickBooks to AyaNova

 

3.Edit descriptive text to use on QuickBooks invoices

 

a.If you print out from AyaNova a detailed completed report for each workorder to accompany the invoice, you might just reference the workorder number(s) on the invoice
b.If you do not print out from AyaNova a detailed completed report for each workorder to accompany the invoice, you might have descriptive text include aspects of the data from the workorder(s) to display right on the invoice - such as workorder number(s),  schedulable user(s) that performed the service, start and stop Labor times, workorder item summaries, details from each Labor item

 

4.Use QBI to invoice AyaNova service workorders into QuickBooks

 

a.Fix unlinked data or price differences between linked AyaNova and QuickBooks parts
b.Invoice single or multiple service workorders via QBI into QuickBooks.
c.Confirm in QuickBooks that the service workorder information was invoiced out correctly.
d.Confirm in AyaNova that the invoice number for the corresponding service workorder(s) was entered in Invoice #: field, service workorder set to closed, status set to that entered in preferences - and if set to fix differing information.

 

 

NOTE - QBI only obtains QuickBooks and AyaNova information when QBI first loads - so if you enter new information into either QuickBooks or AyaNova with QBI running - QBI will not be aware of it. You will need to close QBI and restart it.
