  • Missing data for Quickbooks metric ‘Income’

    Quickbooks Metric ‘Income’ might not return any values in Databox if its renamed in the connected Quickbooks account (for example to ‘Revenue’ or ‘Total Revenue’).
    The following setup should be applied in the Quickbooks account under ‘Account and Settings’: Company type should be set to Not sure/Other/None (Databox does not support syncing data for the Non-Profit Company type account setting), and industry should be left blank (this needs to be done at least for the non-profit entities).
    With these settings, the report subtitles will automatically be set as ‘Income’ and ‘Total Income’, and Databox will sync data for the metric as expected.
