Apply new payments to client invoices and clear queue

Automatically monitor new payment events in QuickBooks Online across finance systems. Create payment posts and clear reconciliation queue records when payments include invoice references, match stored reconciliation entries, or post paid datesβ€”so you can prevent manual reconciliation and keep invoices up to date.

How this automation clears your reconciliation queue

When new payments arrive but invoice posting and queue cleanup are delayed, reconciliation falls behind and errors accumulate. This automation captures QuickBooks Online payments, matches them to reconciliation records, posts invoice payments in Harvest, and deletes the paid queue entryβ€”so your team can close reconciliation faster.
