How to connect Square and QuickBooks
Create a New Scenario to Connect Square and QuickBooks
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step

To do this, click "Choose an app," find Square or QuickBooks, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Square Node
Select the Square node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Square, QuickBooks, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Square and QuickBooks integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Square and QuickBooks (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
