I cannot get beyond the testing step of my zap. This is my first time attempting to create a zap in which a new or updated google sheet record will create an expense transaction in QBO. I have basically hardcoded values for each field and still get “invalid number” or “required param missing”.
Before I spend more days on this, has anyone been successful at implementing this and if so, could share any hints on getting this to work?
TIA!

Hello. Thank you for inquiring about this. Sorry for the delay...I’ve been sick.
I had posted this general question because I wanted to see if anyone has been successful at creating an expense (or cash) transaction in Quickbooks Online and I didn’t want to waste anyone’s time trying to figure it out if its not even possible. I had emailed zapier support a little while ago and asked about adding the functionality of creating a check entry in QBO and was told that it was not in the QBO API so it’s not possible. So then I started playing around with creating an expense (not a check) and that’s where I’ve run into so many errors pretty much on every single field in the configuration section and that’s when I started questioning if it’s even possible.
Have you worked with google sheets to create a QBO expense entry (or check)?
+6Hi
I'm sorry to hear that you've been unwell and having trouble with creating expenses in QuickBooks Online (QBO) from Google Sheets using Zapier.
You're correct that creating a check entry directly isn't currently supported in the QuickBooks Online API and, therefore, not available as an action in Zapier.
Thank you for confirming what I was told.
So how does this company (promoted by Intuit) manage to do it? Their technology appears very old!

Older technologies can still be effective if they are reliable, well-suited to a company's needs, and supported by experienced staff. A company promoted by a larger entity like Intuit may offer unique value beyond its technology, such as a strong business model or market position. The best technology depends on a company's needs, resources, and expertise—newer isn't always better.
