QuickBooks Business Network is almost here

In a nutshell: The QuickBooks Business Network is a new service for QuickBooks Online customers to connect with the QuickBooks community. It is designed to help you and your clients conduct business with their customers and vendors more smoothly by streamlining their workflow with automation tools. You’ll be able to partner with QuickBooks certified vendors, automatically import bills, predict your cash flow, and more.

The benefits include the following:

• Join a community – Search for businesses that use QuickBooks Online without manually entering their contact information.
• Get QuickBooks accuracy – We want to help facilitate time-consuming administrative tasks, such as tracking down accurate contact information, to create a hassle-free business management experience.
• Safe and secure – QuickBooks takes security and privacy seriously, and will not share your or your client’s business contact information with anyone outside of QuickBooks.
• Integrated accounts payable automation – Sending an invoice to another network member will automatically create a bill for them in their QuickBooks account, ready for their review and approval. They’ll also receive in-product bill alerts to remind them to take action.

The QuickBooks Business Network and its associated features have started rolling out in phases to accountants and their small business clients. All U.S. accountants will have access in summer 2022.

Schedule pay – Let customers schedule future payments on your invoices.
