How does the order update feature work?
-
Updates on new orders: If orders are in the new order tab and still need to be posted to QuickBooks, then any update or changes found on the store will be auto-updated, and they will stay in the new order section. No action is required by the user.
-
Updates on orders posted to Quickbooks: After orders have been posted to QuickBooks, any changes made on the orders for Items, the Shipping charge amount, discount, fee, and order payment, will be downloaded in the “Updates tab”.
Note: For invoices, Webgility Online sync updates to the existing one. In the case of sales receipts, the user needs to unpost the existing transaction from QuickBooks and create a new one.
