Working with Point of Sale

QuickBooks integrates with Xsilva's Lightspeed Point of Sale product. To use, you must purchase a copy of Lightspeed and follow the instructions included with the Lightspeed software to integrate with QuickBooks.

To import Point of Sale transactions from Lightspeed:

  1. Close QuickBooks
  2. Export the data (as described in the Lightspeed documentation) from the Lightspeed product.
  3. Re-open QuickBooks.

Each time you open QuickBooks, it checks for new transactions and then imports them.

Note: If you use multiple QuickBooks for Mac company files on a single machine AND created some of those company files from the same original company file (like using a company file as a template for others), you may have a problem with the importing transactions into the right company file.
