FAQ

Frequently asked questions

We work from the reports your system already produces and your QuickBooks Online file, so nothing in your setup has to change. We have guides for PDI, Verifone, Modisoft and Gilbarco, and we also work with CStoreOffice, Petrosoft and SSCS reports.
No. We do not sell, price or recommend POS or back office systems, and we are not affiliated with any of them. Where a guide mentions a vendor, the facts come from that vendor's own descriptions, and you should confirm them with the vendor.
No. We work from reports you export, or from a read-only user you create. We never need your own password. Access problems go to your software vendor or reseller.
Start with the guide for the system that totals your day, usually your back office. If your numbers do not match the bank, the guide on why QuickBooks does not match your POS report is a good first stop for any system.
Yes. We reconcile the old and new systems through the changeover so no day is missed or counted twice. See the guides on moving off PDI and on comparing PDI alternatives.
