How to import by SKU into QuickBooks Online

Overview

When importing transactions into QuickBooks Online using Zed Axis and rather than use the Item Name you wish to use the SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) identifier (see below) it is possible to select the import option to SKU lookup.  Zed Axis will then lookup the product or service based on the SKU rather than the Full Item Name.

Follow these steps:

 
  1. In the Axis import module click on the More options button
  2. Check the box for SKU Lookup and click OK
  3. In your mappings map the field called SKU to the column in your import file that contains the SKU identifier (when using SKU lookup do not also map the LineSalesItemRefName as it will conflict)
  4. Now when you import your file into QuickBooks Online it will lookup the product or service SKU rather than the name.
