Pushing Employees to QBO
Learn how to send FileMaker employee changes to QBO.
This exercise focuses on sending modified employee records from FileMaker to QBO. Unlike the pulling mechanism, this process doesn't necessarily need to rely on modification timestamps since the primary concern is tracking successful transmission.
Key Concepts
- Identifying records that need to be pushed to QBO
- Creating vs. updating records in QBO
- Handling synchronization status tracking
Implementation Approach
- We'll use a status field to track which records need to be sent to QBO
- The integration will determine whether to create new records or update existing ones
- After successful transmission, the status will be updated to prevent re-sending
- Error handling will ensure that failed transmissions can be retried
