Qslip - User Guide -
Importing from QuickBooks
Prior to exporting from
QuickBooks
|
1.
(optional) When receiving checks, enter the Bank Number
from the checks in the memo field in the "Receive
Payments" or "Cash Sales" windows.
Qslip will read this from the QB
export file.
If you have the customer list feature enabled in Qslip, you can skip
entering the bank number here if the customer (and bank number)
are in Qslip's customer list.
A stay-on-top customer list viewer (QSviewer) is included
with Qslip. It can be handy to keep it open while entering
payments received in QBooks -- a quick glance will let you know
whether you can skip entering the bank number for a customer.
|
|
2.
(optional) If you have other info that you wish to place
in the memo field, place it after the Bank
Number, separated by a comma.
Qslip will read the Bank Number from the QB
export file, placing the text after the comma into Qslip's
Memo field.
If you are not entering a bank number, place a comma before
any memo text you wish to enter.
|
3. If you need to assign a single
check to more than one payment received transaction, preface the
Check Number with a "p" character (eg. p23081) each
time it is entered. Qslip will combine the separate transactions
into one check item for the deposit.

select a file from the list, you will receive a prompt
asking if you want to overwrite the file - choose yes).
