Using 1place with QuickBooks Online

Why QuickBooks Online?

The predecessor to 1place is OneSource (for MS Access).  OneSource has built in AR, AP, Banking, and GL features.  So why doesn't 1place have the same features?  If you go back to 2000-2001, (when OneSource was first being created), the goal all along was to integrate OneSource with QuickBooks for AR, AP, Banking, GL and Payroll functionality.  However, with no API to speak of back then, (after many months of trying various work arounds), it became clear that OneSource could not feasibly integrate with QuickBooks back then, so we purchased and created code to perform these basic functions--but it was never it's strong suite.  Now fast forward to 2016 when the new re-write of OneSource (1place) was first being designed we went back and looked into integrating with QuickBooks again and found that the Online version of QuickBooks had a near complete API.  This being the case we made a decision in 2016 to integrate 1place with QuickBooks Online because it is and will probably always be light years better when it came to Online BankingFinancial Reports, and Payroll.  It is also very good at AR (especially AR Collections) and AP.  

Case in point: QuickBooks Online integrates with nearly every bank in the US, can calculate Payroll for every state in the US, and can help calculate and produce Sales Tax Reports with every state in the US.

We like using QuickBooks Online for the 4-5 things it is best at, and believe your Accounting firm will like it as well.
