Setting up Agiliron Integration with QuickBooks Desktop

To setup Agiliron to integrate with your QuickBooks Company file, you need an Agiliron Business Instance and User Account.

  • If you do not have an Agiliron Business Instance or User Account, please email [email protected]
    to signup for a new Agiliron account OR you can signup for a 30-day trial at Agiliron Trial signup page.
  • If you are already an Agiliron customer OR have a 30-day trial instance of Agiliron, we will walk you through the process of making the connection to your QuickBooks Company File from your existing Agiliron Account below.

Before you begin:

  • Please make sure you are using Windows 10 and QuickBooks Desktop (Pro, Premier, or Enterprise) 2015 and higher editions.
  • Please make sure you are signed into QuickBooks Desktop as an admin and are in single user mode.

Installing Agiliron Sync Application on your Windows computer:

  • The Agiliron Sync Application should be installed on the same Windows computer that you are running QuickBooks Desktop. Please follow the instructions below to install it.
  • Download the "MS Visual Basic Power Pack Package" by clicking here.
  • Once it is downloaded, click on the "VisualBasicPowerPacksSetup.exe" and following the installation steps to install that on your Windows machine.
