Invoice creation from other systems, payment reminders, capturing bills and receipts from email, drafting transaction categories for review, and reporting. People still approve anything posted to the books. ### Can AI categorise QuickBooks transactions? AI can suggest categories based on your history and rules, and flag anything unusual. Your bookkeeper reviews and approves before anything is posted. ### Are you an Intuit partner? No. TribeHQ is an independent agency, not affiliated with or endorsed by Intuit. We connect to your own QuickBooks Online company through its API. ### Do you work with Xero too? Yes. The same workflows can be built on Xero for firms and businesses that use it. ### How long does it take? Most QuickBooks workflows are live in 2–4 weeks, starting with a one-week workflow audit. ## See what this would look like for you. A 30-minute call.
