Accounting connectors
Choose who keeps the books for each legal entity, and send Kila's entries to QuickBooks Online or Xero when your accountant keeps them there.
When your accountant keeps the books in QuickBooks Online or Xero, Accounting connectors decides, for each legal entity, which system keeps them, and sends Kila’s entries there, with the accounts mapped, a log of what was sent and a check that both agree. Kila records every sale, payment and stock movement whatever you choose; only one system keeps the books, so nothing is counted twice.
