Background

Are invoices generated from QuickBooks or from Magento and how do we handle invoice numbers through our product?

Detailed Solution

In the retail world in most of the cases, Invoices are created in Magento assuming a credit card payment. Magento typically the originator of these transactions and it's best practice to keep it so. Now if the Invoices are generated from Magento, Magento Invoice numbers are used when capturing an Invoice in QuickBooks Online.
