Benefits of our Tableau QuickBooks Online connector

Have you spent dozens of hours trying to make the native Tableau QuickBooks Online connector work for your business? Have you also found it difficult to make your numbers in Tableau match to what you see in QuickBooks Online?

Our connector offers an easy solution to this problem because of its convenient data format! All the data is grouped into tables like P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, etc. No need to blend the data from dozens of different tables as it is already blended for you by us! You can also drill down to specific transactions that make up the values of your accounts.

If you have multiple QuickBooks Online accounts (perhaps you run an accounting practice or a group of companies), you will need some way to combine their data together. Our Tableau QuickBooks Online connector allows you to connect to multiple companies and combine their data in a single file!

Why reinvent the wheel and try to recreate the Quickbooks P&L, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow statements in Tableau yourself? Use our free Quickbooks Tableau template to visualise your financial statements in 5 minutes!

4 easy steps to connect Tableau to Quickbooks Online

We offer a no-code integration that extracts the data from the Quickbooks Online API into an Azure SQL Server database. This database can then be connected to Tableau using the native Azure SQL Server connector. The integration between Azure SQL Server and Tableau is very stable even for large volumes of data and allows our clients to set up additional data security rules on Azure.
