Welcome 5 CHAPTER 1 Welcome Welcome to the Web TimeSheet Integration Manager for QuickBooks User Guide.  This guide provides in- formation on using Web TimeSheet Integration Manager for QuickBooks, which will be referred to through- out this manual as the integration module. About Web TimeSheet Integration Manager for QuickBooks Web TimeSheet Integration Manager provides users the ability to transfer information between Web TimeSheet and QuickBooks. With the ability to transfer time and expense data, the integration module is an ideal solution for those working on projects or tasks that are to be billed to clients. Using Web TimeSheet, you can track the actual time spent working on projects, then transfer the data to QuickBooks to invoice cli- ents for the work completed. Time data entered by employees can also be transferred for use in generating payroll timesheets in QuickBooks. Plus, expenses incurred against the project can also be entered in Web TimeSheet, and transferred to QuickBooks to reimburse employees, pay vendors and charge clients. Additionally, you can use the integration module to save the time and effort associated with entering the user and project data in both QuickBooks and Web TimeSheet. This duplication can be eliminated by entering the data in one application and transferring to the other using the Web TimeSheet Integration Manager. About this User Guide This user guide is designed to help you understand how the integration module works and important con- cepts and considerations when transferring data. In addition to this document, a Quick Start Guide is avail- able, which provides the basic details required to begin using the integration module.
