Explanation:
This document details the steps required to Synchronize (Sync) GL Accounts, Projects, and Departments between Prendio and Quickbooks Desktop (QBD). Syncing adds these segments defined in QBD to Prendio.


Note: This document does not detail the creation of GL Accounts, Projects, and Departments. In this procedure one of each of these segments is created and named in Prendio so that they can be mapped to the same segment in QBD.


Prerequisites:
Quickbooks Desktop, the Quickbooks Web Connector (QBWC), and a browser connected to Prendio must be running on the same computer to complete this procedure.


Launching The QBWC:
