This article explains how to link a QuickBooks Online (QBO) Bill to a Procore Purchase Order (PO) or Subcontract using OneCore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prerequisites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before proceeding, ensure that PO Bill Sync<\/strong> is enabled in OneCore and that your commitment accounting method and Cost Code Expense Mapping Type<\/strong> are correctly configured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enable PO Bill Sync in OneCore<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. In OneCore<\/strong>, go to Invoices > Commitment Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Enable PO Bills Sync<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    What this does:<\/strong>
    Enabling PO Bill Sync allows OneCore to automatically create a Procore commitment claim<\/strong> when a QBO Bill is linked to a Purchase Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Commitment Accounting Methods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    There are two accounting methods used for Procore Commitments (Purchase Orders and Subcontracts). Ensure your mapping type aligns with the accounting method used in Procore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Accounting Method and Mapping Type<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Unit \/ Quantity-Based<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • Required Mapping Type: Products\/Services (Items)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Amount-Based<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • Required Mapping Type: Category (Chart of Accounts<\/strong>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Verify Cost Code Expense Mapping Type<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Navigate to OneCore > Standard Cost Codes>General Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Confirm that the Mapping Type<\/strong> matches the Purchase Order or Subcontract\u2019s Schedule of Values accounting method<\/strong> in Procore.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Steps to Link a QBO Bill to a Procore Commitment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Step 1: Create the Purchase Order or Subcontract in Procore<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Create the Purchase Order or Subcontract in Procore. Once contract is approved, a corresponding Purchase Order will be generated in QBO. Make sure that the commitment transaction type is enabled in OneCore>Projects>Project mapping>Edit Project<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Step 2: Copy the Purchase Order to a Bill in QBO<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. In QuickBooks Online<\/strong>, open the generated Purchase Order.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Select Copy to Bill<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

              This action creates a draft bill<\/strong> that is automatically linked to the Purchase Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

              Step 3: Save the Bill to Trigger Sync<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. Enter and update the required fields on the QBO Bill.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. Save the Bill.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Saving the bill triggers the sync, creating a corresponding commitment claim in Procore<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                A draft progress claim will then be generated in the linked Procore purchase order\/subcontract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
