[color=#000000][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Expense Tracking[/font][/color][/font][/color]



[color=#282828][font=arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif][color=#000000][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Nobody loves tracking expenses. We get that. But we guarantee you'll find it painless with [color=red]FreshBooks[/color]. You can connect your bank account or credit card to import expenses automatically, snap a pic of a receipt, or log it on the spot. Tax-friendly expense categories and easy to generate reports make filing less of a hassle. Plus you will get to know the real spend of your business. Nice and painless, see?[/font][/color]



Reports & Taxes



Your business isn't just the work you do, it's how you keep track of it with your accountant and the government. At Fresh- Books, we've made it easy for you to import expenses, track how much you've invoiced, what you've paid in taxes and pull the reports you need, when you need them. Which makes for a scramble-free tax time, you'll find.



Balance Sheet



You'll be ready for tax time (or those important discussions with your bank) with the Balance Sheet tool. Create a formatted balance sheet that captures a summary of your company's assets, liabilities and equity.



Item Sales



Run your item sales report, and quickly see which is your best performer. Naturally, we hope all of your items are flying off the shelves (real or virtual).



Expense Reports



Need to export your expense report to Excel to see just how much, and what manner of tax you've paid - no problem. Couple of clicks, and you're (pardon the pun) in business.



Sales Tax



In your tax summary report, you'll see how it all balances out, which is always nice to know - especially if you get a call from the government.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif]If you are measurably distressed by having to deal with exporting and importing files to Quickbooks, Excel, etc then this may be a workable solution for you.[/font][/color]

Again, nice work Jeremy, it is refreshing to see a new add-on developer provide this many “realworld” useful offerings in such a short period of time!



If there was any practical way my company could use Freshbooks, then I would purchase this add-on in an instant, unfortunately I will most likely need to hold out for possibly your Quickbooks Online integration as we need complete inventory tracking & control.



Both Freshbooks as well as Xero are great concepts as “alternatives” to Quickbooks, however both are really targeted towards service based businesses which do not have real inventory management needs. Xero has 3rd party add-ons for inventory management, however, the necessary additional monthly fees to accommodate inventory, as well as Payroll, taxes, etc. quickly diminish the overall value… Say what you might, although there are clear reasons why Quickbooks / Intuit are the market leaders! ;-)



For businesses which do not deal extensively with inventory, then this Freshbooks integration should be an excellent option!

I'm looking at QB after my upcoming vacation. Stay tuned.

Hey Jeremy. I cant find this addon on your site.

Hi Sid,



I have one task left to iron out before it is production ready. It is functionally solid, there is just this one rogue bit of code that is causing an aesthetics issue. I'll get it ironed out this weekend and post an update.



Thanks

I would like to purchase? link please?

How does this module handle/translate inventory? Will it perform a journal entry of items sold with cogs at end of day?

Addon completed and updated for CS-Cart 3.x and 4.x.



Links for purchase and Free trial are in the initial post.

There is no read me for this at all?



I installed and linked now how to export!!!

Hello Warren,



The installation and configuration steps are standard. This addon is a real-time sync with Freshbooks via their API for customers, orders and payments. Exporting is not supported in the current release but may be supported in a future release.



My apologies for the missing documentation in the addon archive.

I have had two orders complete nothing showing on Fresh Books?

Nevermind it works but price is showing R0.00

Yea invoice shows 0.00 then creates a credit note everytime? Whats going on?

Please add me on skype: Gizzymomo

The addon was coded and released over a year ago, and a quick search shows that there have been recent changes to the API for Freshbooks. We will look at it at our first available opportunity and release a patch.



Thank you for your patience.

Really shouldnt have it available for sale unless fully tested for 413 which was released recently.

Distribution Package is being updated today and will be available for immediate download on 04/01/14

Update completed and working properly with CS-Cart 4.1.3+.

Does this work with Cs-cart MVE v4.2.4 and 4.3.x ??
