As of June 2023, Workiz’s integration with QuickBooks Desktop will no longer be offered to new customers.
If you have already connected Workiz to QuickBooks Desktop, you may continue using the integration. Please note that our support staff will no longer be able to assist with potential future issues.
If you currently use QuickBooks Desktop and want to integrate with Workiz, please contact support to discuss a migration to QuickBooks Online.
The QuickBooks Desktop integration lets you import your client lists, items lists, invoices, and more.
Plus, it will eliminate duplicate entries and automatically sync your paid invoices!
