QuickBooks’ native reporting cannot aggregate data across separate company files, forcing you to manually export and combine vendor payment data from multiple entities. This creates inconsistent reporting formats and makes enterprise-level cash flow analysis nearly impossible.
Here’s how to consolidate vendor payments from multiple QuickBooks companies into unified spreadsheet views with automated updates and standardized reporting.
Consolidate multi-company payments using Coefficient
Coefficient provides multi-company support for consolidating vendor payments from multiple QuickBooks entities into unified spreadsheet views. You can connect to multiple companies within a single account and create consolidated reporting that exceeds QuickBooks single-company limitations.
How to make it work
Step 1. Connect to multiple QuickBooks companies within a single account.
Establish connections to all your QuickBooks company files through Coefficient’s multi-company support. This enables consolidated vendor payment tracking across all entities without switching between separate QuickBooks instances or manual data combination.
Step 2. Import standardized data from each company using consistent field selection.
For each company, import vendor payment data using the same field selection from Bill Payment objects for payment amounts and dates, Vendor objects for standardized vendor information, and Bills objects for outstanding obligations. This ensures consistent data structure across all companies.
Step 3. Add company identification for source tracking and analysis.
Include company identifier columns to distinguish payment sources in your consolidated view. This enables analysis by individual company or consolidated views of total cash outflows while maintaining the ability to drill down into specific entities.
Step 4. Configure synchronized refreshes across all company connections.
Set up scheduled refreshes that update all company connections simultaneously, ensuring your consolidated reports reflect current data from all entities at the same time. This maintains data consistency across your entire organization.
Step 5. Create advanced consolidation analysis and reporting.
Build unified cash flow analysis across all companies, identify vendors used across multiple entities for consolidated payment terms negotiation, and create standardized reporting formats that work across your entire organization. Filter and analyze by company, vendor, or payment method as needed.
