## How It Works

All accounting integrations follow a similar workflow:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create charges in ARMS">
    Track railcar storage, switching, and other billable services in Cedar ARMS
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate invoices">Group charges into invoices for your customers</Step>

  <Step title="Synchronize eligible billing records">
    The integration sends charges or invoices that meet its configured billing-status policy
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review status">
    Monitor successful synchronization and resolve any mappings or connection issues that need attention
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What Gets Synced

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="QuickBooks Online">
    | Cedar ARMS | QuickBooks Online |
    | - | - |
    | Finalized invoice | Posting Invoice |
    | Customer location | Customer selected in the explicit mapping |
    | Service type | Item selected in the explicit mapping |
    | Charge | Invoice line with description, quantity, rate, and amount |
    | First invoiced charge date | Transaction date |

    <Info>
      QuickBooks Online synchronization is future-only.⁠​​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌⁠ It does not backfill invoices finalized before connection or during a disconnected interval.
    </Info>
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="QuickBooks Desktop">
    | Cedar ARMS | QuickBooks Desktop |
    | - | - |
    | Invoice | Sales Order |
    | Invoice line items (charges) | Line items with service type, quantity, and rate |
    | Customer | Customer reference through the customer location GL number |
    | Invoice date | Transaction date |

    <Info>
      By default, QuickBooks Desktop synchronizes Invoiced charges after invoice finalization. Cedar can configure QBWC to include Assigned charges so they synchronize before finalization. Charges must also have a **General Ledger (GL) Number** configured on the customer location.
    </Info>
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Billing Status Requirements

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="QuickBooks Online">
    QuickBooks Online synchronizes only finalized invoices with **Invoiced** charges.⁠​​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌⁠ It is future-only and does not backfill invoices finalized before connection or during a disconnected interval.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="QuickBooks Desktop">
    By default, QuickBooks Desktop synchronizes **Invoiced** charges. Cedar can configure QBWC to include **Assigned** charges for an earlier sync. Ask your Cedar administrator which billing statuses are enabled for your Desktop connection.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

QuickBooks Online requires explicit Customer and Item mappings. QuickBooks Desktop uses matching GL numbers and service item names. See the integration-specific guide before enabling automatic synchronization.
