Why teams connect Front and QuickBooks
Connect the financial records in QuickBooks with the work happening in Front, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.
QuickBooks holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Front is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.
Stacksync keeps Journal entries, Estimates, Purchase orders, Credit memos in QuickBooks and Comments, Contacts, Accounts, Inboxes in Front in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Front keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with QuickBooks is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.
There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.
Common use cases
- Reconcile payment-processor payouts against QuickBooks transactions.
- Sync invoices and payments between QuickBooks and the CRM so sales sees billing status on the account record.
- Mirror conversations tagged for escalation into engineering trackers through the synced database.
- Feed CSAT and SLA reporting from synced conversation events rather than manual exports.
Where Front collects payments or triggers charges: events land in QuickBooks
Payment and charge activity flows into QuickBooks as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.
Where Front tracks people or companies: one identity
A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.
Where Front handles customer conversations: billing context in view
Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from QuickBooks next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

FAQ
Front and QuickBooks integration FAQ

-
Front: REST API (Core API). Authentication: OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required. QuickBooks: REST API (QuickBooks Online). Authentication: OAuth 2.0. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
QuickBooks: Webhooks fire on entity operations including create, update, delete, and merge. Front: Docs do not state change-detection mechanism, sync directions, or write-back specifics for Front. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Front and QuickBooks without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Front and QuickBooks records are not retained after a sync operation.
