CrewLog + QuickBooks Online

Approved field time, mapped before it reaches accounting.

CrewLog connects approved employee time to existing QuickBooks Online employees, customers or projects, and service items. Administrators preview the exact records first, while duplicate protection keeps a retry from creating the same TimeActivity twice.

QuickBooks integration questions

Does CrewLog create QuickBooks employees or customers?

No. CrewLog maps its employees and jobs to records that already exist in the connected QuickBooks Online company.

Does CrewLog send unapproved time?

No. The direct-sync workflow is built around completed time from an approved and locked employee week.

What happens before a sync?

An administrator maps employees, jobs or customers, and a default service item, then previews ready and blocked entries before submitting them.

Does CrewLog support QuickBooks Desktop?

QuickBooks Desktop uses CrewLog’s IIF file export rather than the QuickBooks Online API connection.

Which plans include direct sync?

QuickBooks Online direct sync is available on paid CrewLog plans when the integration is enabled and configured for the workspace. Solo includes QuickBooks-ready file exports.
