“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Yes, you can automatically refresh QuickBooks data in Google Sheets on hourly, daily, or weekly schedules. This eliminates the tedious process of manually exporting CSV files and importing them into your spreadsheets every time you need updated financial data.
Here’s how to set up automated scheduling so your Google Sheets always reflect current QuickBooks information without any manual intervention.
Set up automatic QuickBooks data refresh using Coefficient
Coefficient provides native QuickBooks integration with robust scheduling capabilities that work directly through the API. Unlike QuickBooks’ manual export process, you get three automated refresh options based on your timezone preferences.
How to make it work
Step 1. Connect QuickBooks to Google Sheets.
Install Coefficient from the Google Workspace Marketplace and connect your QuickBooks account. You’ll need Admin or Master Admin permissions to establish the connection and access all your financial data.
Step 2. Import your desired QuickBooks data.
Choose from over 22 standard QuickBooks reports like Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, or Profit & Loss. You can also build custom imports using the Objects & Fields method to pull specific data like customer lists, invoices, or payments.
Step 3. Configure your refresh schedule.
Select your preferred frequency through Coefficient’s scheduling interface. Choose hourly updates for high-transaction businesses, daily refreshes for standard reporting, or weekly updates for summary analysis. All refreshes occur based on your timezone.
Step 4. Set up manual override options.
Add an on-sheet refresh button for immediate updates when you need current data outside your scheduled refresh times. This gives you the best of both worlds – automation with manual control when needed.
Keep your financial data current automatically
Automated QuickBooks data refresh eliminates the single point of failure that comes with manual exports. Your stakeholders get consistent, timely data without depending on someone remembering to update spreadsheets. Try Coefficient to set up your automated QuickBooks refresh schedule today.
