Why BigCommerce-QuickBooks Integration Needs Conversion

Different Export Formats

BigCommerce exports orders with its own column structure and naming. QuickBooks requires specific columns like "Invoice No", "Customer", "ItemAmount" with exact formatting. Importing BigCommerce CSV directly to QuickBooks fails with column mapping errors.

What This Tool Provides

Automatic conversion that handles: - Column mapping - Renames BigCommerce columns to QuickBooks requirements - Discount allocation - QuickBooks can't import negative line items, so discounts are spread across items - Customer matching - Maps BigCommerce customer names to QuickBooks customer list - Line item formatting - Converts multi-line orders to QuickBooks invoice structure - Date formatting - Converts to MM/DD/YYYY format QuickBooks expects

Frequently Asked Questions

Use the Orders export from BigCommerce admin. Go to Orders → Export, select your preferred template (custom templates give you more control over columns), choose your date range, and download. The tool handles both default and custom templates.
QuickBooks Online's invoice import doesn't support negative line item amounts. If you try to import a discount as a separate line with -$10, it will fail. The solution is to allocate the discount proportionally across product line items, reducing each item's amount. This tool does this automatically.
Yes, QuickBooks requires customers to exist before you can create invoices for them. Export your BigCommerce customers, import them to QuickBooks first, then import orders. Customer names must match exactly.
Each product in a BigCommerce order becomes a separate line item in the QuickBooks invoice. Shipping is added as an additional line item using the item name you configure (default: 'Shipping'). All line items for the same order share the same invoice number.
This tool can handle large imports. The conversion happens in your browser, so there's no server timeout. QuickBooks may have import limits (check their documentation), so you might need to split very large files into batches of 1000-2000 orders.
