Every item category, tax line, tip, discount, and payment type is mapped to the right QuickBooks account. No more manual entry, no more reconciliation headaches. Whether you're a restaurant, retailer, or service business running Square, Shogo ensures your QuickBooks books are always accurate and up to date.
