“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.”
QuickBooks has no built-in functionality for consolidating data across separate accounts, and manual exports from multiple accounts require significant effort. Each QuickBooks account operates independently with no native consolidation tools.
While Coefficient can’t connect to multiple separate QuickBooks accounts simultaneously due to API restrictions, here are the available approaches for consolidation.
Consolidation options with current limitations
Coefficient supports multi-company consolidation within a single QuickBooks account, but each separate QuickBooks account requires its own admin connection. Since only one admin connection is allowed at a time, true multi-account consolidation requires workarounds.
How to make it work
Step 1. Check if you have multi-company within one account.
If your multiple “accounts” are actually different companies within one QuickBooks subscription, Coefficient can access all companies and consolidate their GL code data into a single Google Sheet using multiple import configurations.
Step 2. Use sequential connection method for separate accounts.
Connect to your first QuickBooks account and import GL code data to specific sheet ranges. Then disconnect, connect to the second account, and import that data to different ranges. Use Google Sheets formulas to consolidate the data across ranges.
Step 3. Implement team collaboration approach.
If different team members have admin access to different QuickBooks accounts, each can set up their own Coefficient connection and share imported data to a master consolidation sheet that combines all sources.
Step 4. Consider restructuring for better consolidation.
Evaluate whether your QuickBooks setup could use QuickBooks’ multi-company features within a single account, which would enable full Coefficient consolidation capabilities without workarounds.
Work within current API limitations
While true multi-account consolidation has restrictions, these approaches let you combine GL code data from multiple sources more efficiently than QuickBooks’ manual export process. Explore your consolidation options today.
