Countdown to QuickBooks Connect 2019 - Part 4

by

Insightful Accountant continues our 'countdown' to QuickBooks Connect by looking at more of the sponsors who make it possible to 'connect' with so many of the featured products that work with QuickBooks. The software and Apps that serve both QuickBooks users as well as accountants, bookkeepers, business consultants and ProAdvisors are extremely diverse and are well represented within the exhibit hall this year.

OnPay

OnPay is a payroll software provider for small and medium-sized businesses which provides a full-service payroll solution that addresses the needs of clients with up to 1,000 employees or contractors, including nonprofits, agriculture, franchises, and restaurants. The program also includes integrated HR, workers’ compensation and benefits in all 50 states.

OnPay provides greater flexibility for running payroll (and payroll accounting), thanks to automatic syncs with QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop. The solution offers six levels of permission so practitioners can customize the degree of payroll collaboration. Based on preferences, firms can handle the entire payroll process, allow clients to handle it or manage it together.

The OnPay solution for accountants and bookkeepers gives them the ability to manage all clients from one intuitive dashboard. Accountants and bookkeepers can assign tasks, track payroll deadlines, pull reports and manage software app integrations from the OnPay dashboard.

The OnPay 'Partner Program' is designed to make it easier for accountants, bookkeepers, business consultants, and QuickBooks ProAdvisors to serve their clients via special partnership opportunities so be certain to stop their booth in the exhibit hall and visit with the representatives from OnPay while you are attending QuickBooks Connect.

A2X

A2X makes it easy for you to account accurately for your Amazon marketplace sales, and now for your Shopify sales as well. Get your revenues, fees and other transactions posted automatically to QuickBooks Online ledger and reconciled to bank deposits received from either Amazon or Shopify. A2X journals posted to QuickBooks will match perfectly against the corresponding deposits from Amazon or Shopify, so you can be confident the cash received from marketplace sales have been accounted for.

A2X automatically fetches and processes settlements, generates journals for each settlement and posts them to QuickBooks Online, automatically. Each time your marketplace initiates a settlement, A2X detects it, loads the transactions, and generates a summary of the revenue, expenses, and the various other transactions.

Configure A2X to aggregate sales by SKU, by product type, or by country. You select which ledger accounts and tax rates A2X should use for each transaction type whether you are managing Amazon sales or Shopify sales.

'Award winning' A2X supports Amazon and Shopify marketplaces world-wide, and has multi-currency capability built in. So, if you or your clients work with Amazon and QuickBooks Online, or Shopify and QuickBooks Online, be sure to stop by the A2X booth in the QuickBooks Connect exhibit hall to see how they can streamline their connectivity.
