Exclude specific invoice(s) from exporting

There may be certain invoices that you do not want exporting to QuickBooks for various reasons. In Rentman, you can easily identify and select the invoice(s) you do not want exported. 

1. Go to the subfolder Invoices from the monetization_on Financial module.
2. Right-click on the invoice of your choice.
3. Select "Do not export to accounting software".

Re-export an invoice to accounting software

Want to re-export an invoice to Quickbooks for any reason? Here's how you can do so: 

1. Go to the subfolder Invoices from the monetization_on Financial module.
2. Right-click on the invoice of your choice.
3. Select "Re-export to accounting software".

In order to re-export an invoice that has previously failed, you must enable this option again. If not, the invoice will not export at all. 

Update the payment status of your Rentman invoices through Quickbooks

Invoices that are marked as paid in Quickbooks Online will automatically have their payment updated in Rentman. How it works:

1. Successfully export your invoice to Quickbooks Online.
2. You receive your payment and mark the invoice as paid in Quickbooks Online.
3. Your corresponding invoice in Rentman will be marked paid during the next automatic or manual export.

This feature is only available with Rentman’s Quoting and Invoicing add-on. You will need to have an active connection between Rentman and Quickbooks Online.
