DashBook version 5.2 has just been released!
In addition to providing additional report enhancements, the big news for this version is the new ability to create royalty checks directly into QuickBooks using our optional QuickBooks Integration Module. Now you can pull QuickBooks invoices into DashBook, calculate the royalties using DashBook, and then create royalty checks in QuickBooks.
You can do all of this without any exporting or importing of interim files, since DashBook communicates directly with QuickBooks using Intuit's API (programming interface language). The advantage of using the API is that QuickBooks can monitor what is being written so that it could complain if any data uploaded was not following the correct format. This gives instant feedback that what we do is correct.
There are some details in the process, of course. Within DashBook, you would first mark all of your royalty payments that you are paying as paid. Then you can instruct DashBook to create QuickBooks checks for all payments within a particular date range. Aside from providing the start and end dates, there is nothing more to do but click a button to do all of the work.
Of course, you can still import sales from other sales reports, such as Amazon Kindle, Ingram, etc.
Our enhancements to DashBook come from users like you. If you have some special calculation, reporting, or integration work that would make your life easier, contact us.
