Payments land in QuickBooks on their own

When a customer pays an invoice through Cinderblock, the payment is applied to the matching QuickBooks invoice automatically. No logging payments twice, no invoices showing unpaid in QBO after the money’s arrived. Payments recorded directly in QuickBooks sync back to Cinderblock too, so everyone sees the latest payment status on the job.

Invoice details stay in sync across both systems

Create or edit an invoice in either system and the amounts, line items, payments, and status carry over automatically. If a job changes scope, both systems reflect the latest information so your bookkeeper spends less time tracking down outdated invoices.

Connect an existing QuickBooks account without the mess

Already running your business on QuickBooks Online? Connecting takes minutes, not a data migration. Cinderblock walks you through matching your existing QuickBooks customers, auto-matching most and letting you review the rest, and imports your services, materials, estimates, and invoices automatically. No consultants. No CSV surgery. Review existing records before anything is imported, helping prevent duplicate customers and invoices.

Services, materials, and income accounts stay clean

Services and materials details, including name, description, price, cost, SKU, and tax settings, stay connected no matter where you edit them. Map services and materials to the correct QuickBooks income accounts once, and synced transactions continue using those mappings automatically. Less cleanup at month end.
