How do I test syncing inventory updates from QuickBooks Online?

Connex syncs changes from install forward. Any product that you update in QuickBooks will sync to your site. The sync runs every fifteen minutes, stock changes are sent one at a time. You can either wait for your task to start or run a manual sync

How does it work?

Update an item in QuickBooks by either changing text or changing quantity. Our tool syncs updates from the date of install forwards. For initial syncs, export a spreadsheet from QuickBooks. You can upload a list of products and update your website. For Shopify users needing an initial sync, a two column spreadsheet of QuickBooks item names and their stock quantities will update your site. For more info, read this guide.
