Purpose of Syncing Employees
The primary purpose of syncing employees from SiteMax to QuickBooks Online is to maintain consistency in tracking time entries. This synchronization facilitates the smooth transfer of information between the two platforms, eliminating errors and providing an efficient way to manage and monitor employee work hours. Ultimately, this process contributes to accurate payroll allocation in QuickBooks Online.
How to Sync Employees?
From your company dashboard, navigate to "Settings."
In Settings, click on the "Integrations" tab.
Within the "Integrations" tab, select the "QuickBooks" tab.
In the Employees section, find and click the "Sync Employees" button.
A "Sync" page will appear, displaying a table with "SiteMax" and "QB" columns.
To sync, use the "Actions" menu, if it is the initial time you sync employees, you have to click on "Force Sync". If new users are added click "Sync."
If names are available in both SiteMax and QuickBooks, they will match. If a name is not present or an exact match in either SiteMax or QuickBooks, it will display as "Not Synched." Edit the name of the user in SiteMax and click "Sync" to remap.
Note: SiteMax does not create users in Quickbooks.
