QuickBooks

What it does

QuickBooks works with the Financials step of the listing editor.

• ImportSelect Import from QuickBooks, and SellAnyBiz reads your Profit and Loss for the last three completed financial years.
• ReviewYou see the imported figures beside the ones already on the listing, and tick the years you want. Nothing on the listing changes until you do.
• A mark for buyersEach year you bring in carries a small mark buyers can see: From the seller's QuickBooks, with the date. It names no company. A figure you later edit by hand loses its mark.
• Kept up to dateAbout once a month SellAnyBiz reads the books again. It never changes a figure by itself: if the numbers moved, the editor tells you, and you decide.

Whose connection is it?

The connection is yours. It is saved for you, in the workspace where you connected it.

• Your teammates do not share this authorization. Each person connects their own QuickBooks sign-in.
• Any member of a workspace can connect. There is no step for an owner or an admin.
• A connection reaches one QuickBooks company: the one you choose when you connect.

What SellAnyBiz asks Intuit for

SellAnyBiz asks Intuit for three things.

• Confirm who you are with Intuit, and let you choose which company to connect.

• See your email address, so the card can show which QuickBooks account is connected.

  Sent to the provider as email

• Reach your QuickBooks Online accounting data. Intuit offers no read-only version of this permission, so the permission itself allows reading and writing. SellAnyBiz only reads: your company's details, your chart of accounts and your Profit and Loss report.

SellAnyBiz is built so that it cannot write to QuickBooks: the part that talks to QuickBooks can only read. It does not ask for payments or payroll.

How we handle your data: our Privacy Policy

Good to know

• Figures are placed by the type of each account in QuickBooks, never by its name.
• A year only gets figures when SellAnyBiz's totals agree with QuickBooks's own totals for that year.
• The name of your company is shown to you while you review, and never to buyers.
• To import into a listing, you must be able to edit that listing.

Individual and team use

The user selects one QuickBooks company (realm) during authorization. Imported financial figures follow listing access; this is not a workspace-wide QuickBooks login. Another company requires a new authorization.

Capabilities and limits

Reads company details, account classifications, and Profit and Loss reports for listing financial imports.

• Intuit’s accounting scope grants read/write capability, but the SellAnyBiz accounting client only issues GET requests.
• QuickBooks Online is supported, not QuickBooks Desktop. Provider roles, company subscription, and API quotas still apply.

Connecting, renewal, and removal

When enabled in this environment, connect from Settings → Integrations → Your integrations. Team-content integrations also appear under Workspace, but still use your own authorization. An expired or revoked grant needs Reconnect. Disconnect removes your SellAnyBiz connection; it does not transfer or delete copies already imported into a room or listing. Google/Microsoft provider consent may remain because sibling integrations share a client.
