Channergy exports to QuickBooks the following items:

  1. Sales including tax and shipping amounts
  2. Accounts Receivable
  3. Accounts Payable

To export the information above you run Channergy Scripts from the Tools menu at the top of the Channergy screen. There are 2 scripts named QuickbooksDailyExport1.mws and ChannergyQuickbooksBillExport-1.mws.

The first script exports your sales for the time period since you previously ran it (e.g., for that day if you run the script daily). Don’t worry, Channergy remembers what it exported so you can’t miss anything or double export.

When you import the file Channergy creates (ChannergyQuickbooksExport.iif) you will see your sales information in QuickBooks. Channergy exports the products sold, total sales, sales tax and shipping amounts. You can view these in the Invoices screen and see them in the General Ledger as well.

Channergy will also create Accounts Receivable for any of your customers that owe you money.

You can also run the ChannergyQuickbooksBillExport-1.mws script anytime you receive inventory and enter an invoice from your vendor. Channergy will create a file named ChannergyQuickbooksBillExport.iif which you can import into QuickBooks. It will create the vendor account if it does not already exist and a payment due for the amount of the invoice. You can then print checks from QuickBooks to pay your vendors.

Below are screenshots of QuickBooks as it was updated from Channergy using the Channergy sample company (CellPhones4U).

If you need the combination file of Channergy scripts and IIF files called VB app, you can download it from here. Save them into your Channergy data directory and follow the instructions at the end of the video tutorial to install them.

    2. The app creates a temp file containing all of the Items that have been marked as shipped or returned.
    3. The query excludes any products that are marked as non-inventory in Channergy
    4. The query also excludes any ItemNo’s and ShipDt’s (combination key) that match those in the QBInvExport
    5. This file is then summarized by ProductNo and dumped into a temp table.

    8. Once the process is completed the app appends the QBInvExport table with all of the transactions that were posted to QB so that the same items are not exported again.
    9. If a product was not found in QB it will not be added to the QBInvExport table so that when the product is added to QB it will be updated at a later time.
