Employee Expense Report Payments and QuickBooks Integration

When you use the integration between Vantagepoint and QuickBooks Online, you pay vendor bills for employee expense reports in QuickBooks Online.

Employee expense reports that you enter and post in Vantagepoint are added to QuickBooks Online as vendor bills to pay.

When you pay vendor bills for expense reports in QuickBooks Online, the payments are posted in Vantagepoint as employee payment transactions, and the expense reports are marked as paid in My Stuff > Expense Report.

You can't pay employee expense reports in Vantagepoint.

Deleting and Undoing Expense Report Payments

Deleting transactions in QuickBooks Online and undoing postings in Vantagepoint are not supported, meaning that the deletion or undoing in one product does not get applied in the other product .

To delete an expense report payment in both QuickBooks Online and Vantagepoint:

  • In QuickBooks Online, delete the payment. (The matching expense report payment in Vantagepoint is not deleted.)
  • In Vantagepoint, undo the posting for the matching payment in Utilities > Transactions > Undo Posting. (This does not affect the expense report payment in QuickBooks Online.)

Entering Expense Report Payments in QuickBooks Online

In QuickBooks Online in Expenses, you see the vendor bill for an employee expense report in the Expense Transactions list. Use the Pay Bills action to pay a vendor bill for an employee expense report.

The expense report payment from QuickBooks Online is posted in Vantagepoint as an employee payment. You see the posting log in Transaction Center > Posting Review. The expense report shows as paid in Vantagepoint My Stuff > Expense Report.

Partial Payments

In QuickBooks Online, you can make a partial payment for vendor bills for employee expense reports. However, partial payments are not possible for expense reports in Vantagepoint. The partial payments that you make in QuickBooks Online are not sent to Vantagepoint. When the vendor bill for the expense report has been paid in full in QuickBooks Online, the full payment is added to Vantagepoint.
