Before connecting your QuickBooks to Field Service Management you should remember these points:-

Determine which type of customer you are dealing in QuickBooks:

In FSM, it supports two types of customer i.e. residential or commercial. In FSM, the commercial customer has a field for the company and the residential customer doesn’t have any field. You have to make all changes before creating and importing them into FSM. Because after this you can’t correct the customer type.

Synchronization errors:

The sync will not be complete If there is an error that exists related to billing or ship address. It means that a customer can’t sync to FSM until you do not fix the record. Here you will receive the message about which record is not synced and why. After this, you can simply correct the record.

Multiple office locations:

you have to contact support@corrigo.com for multiple work zones. The setup must complete correctly. Because you don’t have any other opportunity. You can also take help from the local expert to assist you.

Intuit Field Service Management from QuickBooks:

FSM fetches the information from the Quickbooks fields. These fields are “Bill To” which contain bill information and “Ship To” which contain service/ site address. Sometimes both the entries are same. In this situation, you have to make entries in both the fields. Suppose Ship To field is left then there will not be any address in FSM for those customers.

Invoice numbering: During sync setting, you should pay attention to the numbering of invoices and how will these appear in the QuickBooks Online

At the time of configuration, if you choose this option “ when Invoice are copied use QBO numbering”. Then the invoice will be the next invoice in QBO.

If you choose the option “when Invoice is copied and use services management numbering” then Invoice sync from IFSM. But make sure that there is no different number format and any manually created invoices in QBO.

If an invoice number already exists in QuickBooks online i.e. identical to one syncing from IFSM. Then the invoice is overwritten by the new invoice.
