# How to Sync Timesheets with QuickBooks Online?

## Learn how to sync timesheet data from ServiceBox to QuickBooks Online for accurate payroll tracking.

### Summary

Integrating timesheet data with accounting software like QuickBooks Online can greatly streamline payroll tasks. In this article, we’ll walk you through syncing timesheets with QuickBooks Online using ServiceBox.

 

 

### Initialize Timesheets

Before starting the synchronization process, make sure all timesheets are properly initialized in the ServiceBox **Settings**. Confirm that all timesheets have been accurately completed and submitted for the desired time period.

 

 

### Add Employees to Payroll

All employees must be added to the **Payroll** tab in QuickBooks Online. This ensures QuickBooks can correctly recognize and link each employee’s timesheet during sync.

 

### Log into ServiceBox

Access your ServiceBox account and use the dropdown under your username to navigate to **QuickBooks Online** for sync setup.

### Configure Timesheet Settings

On the **QuickBooks Online Sync** page in ServiceBox:

1. Click the **Settings** tab.
2. Select the **Time Sheets** option.

 3\. Enable the transfer of time sheet information by checking the box labeled "**Export Time Data**." This step establishes the connection between ServiceBox and QuickBooks Online.

4\. Check the **Export Time Data** box to enable timesheet export.

5\. Set the **Start Date** for timesheet import.

6\. Link each user in ServiceBox to their corresponding employee in QuickBooks Online.

> Note: If you add a new user in ServiceBox, return to this page to link them with the correct employee name in QuickBooks Online to ensure accurate syncing.
