Integrations
Your books stay in QuickBooks. The retyping stops.
Minori Midori runs ordering, pricing, invoicing, and delivery. QuickBooks keeps the books. The accounting export connects the two with files QuickBooks Online imports directly, so closing the month stops meaning re-keying every invoice by hand.
Three files, formatted for QuickBooks Online
Open Reports in your admin, pick a period, and download what the bookkeeper needs. Included on every plan.
Invoices
Every invoice issued in the period, one row per line item, in the layout QuickBooks Online's invoice import expects. Rows that share an invoice number import as one invoice with its line items, dates, and exact totals.
Payments received
Every payment recorded in the period: online invoice payments that settled, invoices you marked paid, and orders paid at checkout or on delivery. Upload the lead columns as a bank CSV, or keep the file open as a checklist while you enter payments.
Orders
Every non-cancelled order at line-item level with order totals. Prepaid and retail sales never produce an invoice, so this is the file that records them as sales receipts, or feeds a plain spreadsheet if that is where your books live.
How a month closes now
- Step 1
Pick the period
This month, last month, or any custom range, resolved in your store's timezone. A payment at 11:30 PM on June 30 belongs to June.
- Step 2
Download the files
Invoices, payments, and orders, each named after the export and the exact dates it covers. Every total matches your admin screens to the cent.
- Step 3
Import into QuickBooks Online
The admin page spells out each import path, and the invoices file uses Intuit's own sample headers, so QuickBooks maps every column for you.
What moves out of QuickBooks, and what stays
QuickBooks doesn’t die when you switch to distribution software; it goes back to being what it was built for. Your accountant keeps the books, the chart of accounts, and the taxes. What moves out is everything it was never built for: order intake, per-customer price lists, credit limits enforced at order time, delivery scheduling, and invoices that generate and chase themselves.
The export is the bridge between the two. Invoices land in QuickBooks with their numbers, customers, dates, and line items intact. Payments reconcile accounts receivable. Orders capture the prepaid and retail sales that never see an invoice. Product names and prices are exported exactly as they were when each document was created, so a rename or reprice today never rewrites last month.
The rest of the stack
Stripe
On Growth, card checkout and online invoice payment run on Stripe. Your customers' payments settle to your own Stripe account, not ours, and we never take a percentage of a sale. Only Stripe's standard processing fees apply, paid to Stripe.
Excel and Google Sheets
Every sales report and every accounting file is a clean CSV that opens correctly in Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. Accented names survive, money lands as plain decimal numbers, and no cell can ever execute as a spreadsheet formula.
Two-way sync, later
A two-way QuickBooks API sync is planned for the Enterprise tier. Today's export is deliberately file-based: nothing touches your QuickBooks company until you import a file yourself.
QuickBooks questions, answered.
Does Minori Midori integrate with QuickBooks?+
Yes, by file. The admin includes an accounting export that downloads your invoices, payments, and orders as CSV files formatted for QuickBooks Online's own import screens. You pick a period, download the files, and import them. There is no account to connect and no plugin to install.
Do I need QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop?+
The invoices file is built for QuickBooks Online, which is what Intuit sells to new customers today. QuickBooks Desktop's IIF format is not supported. If you use a different accounting tool, the same files are plain, well-formed CSVs that any of them can read.
Do I have to edit the files before importing?+
No. The invoices file uses the column layout and sample headers QuickBooks Online's invoice import expects, so every column maps automatically and per-invoice totals match your admin to the cent. The admin page walks through the few import settings that matter, like letting QuickBooks create new customers and items and picking the MM/DD/YYYY date format.
Does the accounting export cost extra?+
No. It is included on every plan, Starter and Growth alike, with no per-export charge. It is the same rule as our pricing generally: a flat monthly subscription with no commission or per-order fee on your sales.
Is there a two-way QuickBooks sync?+
Not today. The export is one-way and file-based by design: nothing in Minori Midori writes to your QuickBooks company until you import a file yourself. A two-way API sync is planned for the Enterprise tier.
How do refunds come across?+
They deliberately don't. The files never contain negative rows; a refunded order stays in the orders file with its payment status visible, and you record the credit memo in QuickBooks yourself. Your books stay yours.
What if I keep my books in a spreadsheet instead?+
Then skip QuickBooks entirely. All three files, plus the sales reports by product, by customer, and over time, open cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice, with totals that reconcile with the admin to the cent.
The reports behind the files are covered on the sales reports page.
