What the integration does

The specific data flows that save you time every day.

Revenue syncs automatically

Every closed booking — grooming, boarding, daycare, transport — posts to your QuickBooks chart of accounts in real time. No batch export required.

Invoices created in AFOS appear in QuickBooks

AFOS invoices sync as QuickBooks invoices instantly. Client records map automatically. Your accountant sees the same data you do.

Payment records stay in sync

When a client pays in AFOS — via card, text-to-pay, or in-person — the payment posts to the corresponding QuickBooks invoice automatically. No reconciliation surprises.

Service categories map to your chart of accounts

Grooming, boarding, daycare, transport, and retail map to separate QuickBooks income categories automatically. Your P&L breaks down cleanly by service line without manual categorization.

Connect in under 5 minutes

Four steps. No developer required.

1

Connect your QuickBooks account

From your AFOS Admin Desk, go to Settings → Integrations → QuickBooks. Click Connect and authorize AFOS to post to your QuickBooks account. No manual API keys required.

2

Map your service categories

AFOS suggests default mappings based on your service types. Review and adjust which AFOS service categories map to which QuickBooks income accounts. Takes about two minutes.

3

Configure sync preferences

Choose whether AFOS syncs in real time or in daily batches. Set your preferred invoice format and payment account. Save settings.

4

Verify with a test booking

Close a test booking in AFOS and confirm the invoice appears in QuickBooks within seconds. Most shops are fully synced and verified in under 10 minutes.

Who this is for

The QuickBooks integration is built for pet facility owners who want accurate books without a manual data entry step. If your accountant asks for QuickBooks access or you prepare your own taxes, this integration eliminates the export-import cycle entirely. It is especially valuable during tax season and for multi-service shops where you need clean revenue breakdowns by service line.

Frequently asked questions

Which QuickBooks version does AFOS integrate with?
AFOS integrates with QuickBooks Online (all tiers — Simple Start through Advanced). QuickBooks Desktop is not currently supported.
Does the integration cost extra?
No. QuickBooks integration is included in the AFOS monthly price. No add-on fee.
Does AFOS sync historical data to QuickBooks?
New transactions sync automatically after you connect. Historical backfill is available for up to 90 days at setup. Contact support if you need a longer backfill.
What happens if a booking is refunded?
Refunds and credits created in AFOS post to QuickBooks as credit memos automatically. Your account stays accurate without manual adjustment.
Can I disconnect the integration?
Yes. Disconnect from Settings → Integrations at any time. Historical synced data remains in QuickBooks; future transactions stop syncing.
Will this work with my existing QuickBooks chart of accounts?
Yes. AFOS maps to your existing accounts. You choose which income account each service type posts to during setup.
Does AFOS sync payroll to QuickBooks?
Payroll data can be exported to QuickBooks as a journal entry. A direct payroll sync is on the roadmap for a future release.
What if I use a bookkeeper or accountant?
Your bookkeeper will see every AFOS transaction reflected in QuickBooks in real time. Most bookkeepers prefer this because they get clean, categorized data without waiting for a monthly export from you.
Does the integration work if I take cash payments?
Yes. Cash and check payments recorded in AFOS post to QuickBooks just like card payments, mapped to the income account and payment method you specify.
Is there a free trial to test the integration?
Yes. Start a free 14-day trial of AFOS — no credit card required. Connect your QuickBooks account during the trial to verify the sync works with your actual chart of accounts before you commit.
