ADP Enhances Integration with QuickBooks with GL Interface

ADP has expanded integration between its Accountant Connect and Intuit QuickBooks with an enhanced General Ledger Interface (GLI) mapping function.

This new interface, combined with enhanced Compensation Benchmarking, powered by ADP DataCloud, will enable accountants to provide a better service and add value to their clients. Through shared values and a commitment to creating industry-leading innovation, ADP and Intuit are better positioning accountants for the future; allowing them to provide a more comprehensive experience to their clients.

Users will be able to access complete self-service GLI mapping for improved integration with Quickbooks. The new feature also enhances the interface with many other popular accounting software platforms, helping to improve the lives of accountants and their clients. By streamlining routine processes, the GLI technology helps increase efficiencies for accountants and their clients. Additional enhancements to general ledger integration are expected in early 2019.

Powered by ADP DataCloud, the new Compensation Benchmarking tool will provide data that can be viewed by industry, location, job type, employee, or revenue size and pay type, which allows accountants to pull specific data needed to help advise clients. This will give accounting professionals the ability to quickly view and compare their clients’ organizations to similar companies, helping to increase the value they provide and expand the different types of highly-sought consulting and advisory services offered by firms today. In addition, accountants will also be able to use the tool for their internal firm needs, providing compensation data points such as overtime, bonuses and job tenure – most often, very difficult to find.

“We’re thrilled to expand our work with Intuit QuickBooks, the global leader in cloud accounting, to further strengthen the services we offer to accountants,” said Maria Black, President of Small Business Solutions and Human Resources Outsourcing. “By integrating QuickBooks’s rich financial and transactional capabilities, with the powerful data available through ADP’s technology solutions, we will provide accountants with unparalleled business insights to help improve their clients’ businesses.”

“These enhancements are designed to dramatically increase an accountant’s most valuable asset: time. TSheets’ customers report saving, on average, over two hours processing payroll every pay run,” said Kyle Jenke, Global Partnership and Platform Lead for Intuit. “Combine that with an average savings of 40 hours per month using QuickBooks and the trifecta of ADP, QuickBooks, and TSheets delivers maximum time savings and, most importantly, a great experience for our shared customers.”

To see the new enhancements to Accountant Connect with ADP in action, as well as how ADP and QuickBooks work together to make payroll seamless, join ADP at QuickBooks Connect in booth 1D, November 5-7 2018 in San Jose, CA.
