QuickBooks + Uku integration for Accounting Firms

Practice management for accounting firms already on QuickBooks.

  • Bill every minute your team actually worked — automatically
  • Your team stops chasing clients. Uku does it on a schedule.
  • Track every job, see who's behind, fix it before Friday

Uku finds the 15–30% of revenue your QuickBooks invoice can't see.

Your team tracks the work. Uku turns it into invoices QuickBooks gets the same day. No spreadsheets, no missed minutes, no end-of-month panic.

What syncs between Uku and QuickBooks.

QuickBooks holds the books. Uku runs the practice. Here's exactly what moves between them — and which way. No black boxes.

Uku → QuickBooks

Invoices

Your team's tracked time and contracts become invoices in Uku. Review, approve, and they land inside QuickBooks Online — header, line items, tax, due date, the lot.

Syncs on every invoice export. Re-sync your client list any time.

QuickBooks → Uku

Clients

Every customer, in one click. No more spreadsheet exports.

QuickBooks → Uku

Products & services

Your QuickBooks items become Uku billing templates.

QuickBooks → Uku

Tax rates

Configure tax once in QuickBooks. Uku stays in sync.

QuickBooks → Uku

Payment status

When QuickBooks marks an invoice paid, Uku closes the loop on the same client.

Read-only. You still collect payments in QuickBooks.

How it works

10 minutes to set up. The same day to your first invoice.

  1. 01

    Connect QuickBooks

    One click. Your customers, addresses and tax IDs land in Uku.

  2. 02

    Build a contract

    Pick the services, set the rates. Uku starts collecting time for you.

  3. 03

    Send the invoice

    Review, hit send. It lands in QuickBooks Online — line items, tax, due date.

Fast Client Import

Your QuickBooks clients, in Uku in seconds.

One click pulls every customer from QuickBooks. Name, email, billing address, tax ID — in Uku, ready for work.

Client moved? Address changed? Re-sync any time. Your books and your practice stay in lockstep — without anyone chasing it.

Automated Billing

Automated Data Collection & Invoicing

Build a contract once. Uku pulls in your team's tracked time, fixed fees, and volume entries — and drafts every invoice for you. The work that was lost in spreadsheets gets billed.

Mix time, fixed, volume, and item-based pricing in the same contract. Set minimum time and rounding rules. Your QuickBooks tax codes are already loaded — no double setup.

Invoices to QuickBooks

From Uku to QuickBooks in 4 clicks.

Review the draft, hit send. Uku pushes the invoice into QuickBooks Online — header, line items, tax, due date, memo. All of it.

QuickBooks marks it paid? Uku closes the loop on the same client. No double entry. No reconciliation. No spreadsheets in the middle.

Automated Debt Reminders

Overdue invoices chase themselves.

QuickBooks knows which invoices are paid. Uku knows the rest. So Uku sends the reminders — politely, on a schedule you set.

Set up two reminders or five. Different templates for 2, 7, and 14 days overdue. Your team stops chasing money and goes back to actual work.

On schedule

2d Friendly
7d Polite nudge
14d Final notice

Set your own schedule, write your own emails, change the tone any time. Uku runs it. Your team doesn't touch it.

"My latest "wow moment" was when we successfully automated our invoicing in cooperation with Uku, which resulted in a meaningful efficiency boost."
