Hi carstone,

Are you asking about the current Add-on, or are you asking how it will be done in the new Add-on (currently in development).

You have the opportunity now to tell us how you would like BTO to be handled (e.g. how you need it to work for your business).

We have not built the BTO component of the new system yet.  However, I can tell you that we plan to fully support BTO products and items in as much detail as possible.

In the new system QB will receive orders via a tool called the Web Connector.   It is a tool that is installed on your pc and talks with ProductCart according to a schedule.

I have only been using ProductCart for about a month. I don't have the current QuickBooks Add-On for ProductCart so I am not sure how the program works. I did read the QuickBooks Add-On directions and I have read this forum.

I moved my site from a cart called Aceflex. AceFlex did not have a QuickBooks program so I used a product called Shopping Cart Assistant from writeitonce.com. Basically you copy the text of an order by press CTRL A and CTRL C and transfer it to the program. You then transfer the orders to QuickBooks. The program enters the customers and invoices but not ITEMS. If an Item was not in Quickbooks then you had to enter the item and then re-transfer that order. Not really a problem since it showed you an error for the orders not imported.

To get back to the question:

1. Customer Transfer: Name, Address, Phone Number, Email Address, Payment Information (Card Number and Expiration date for user that use offline processing).

2. Inventory Transfer: Being able to import the ProductCart Inventory and the QuickBooks item list the same.

3. Creation of Sales receipts or Invoices from orders.

4. Tracking number post back to invoice or sales receipt after item ships.
