Fix Missing Novi API Unique ID and QuickBooks Customer ID for Invoice Syncing

 

1. Identify the sync error 0:01

  • If an invoice sync fails with a message about a missing QuickBooks customer ID and Novi API unique ID, the company profile is missing the two IDs required for the integration.

  • This usually happens when the company was manually added instead of coming through single sign-on (SSO).

  • Companies created through SSO typically have these IDs attached automatically.

 

2. Find the company record in Companies 0:29

  • Close the error message.

  • Go to Companies and locate the affected company.

  • In the company list, check the columns on the right to confirm whether the company has: 

    • Novi API unique ID

    • QuickBooks customer ID

  • If either field is blank, that company record needs to be updated.

 

3. Open the company and edit additional information 1:06

  • Click Edit on the company record.

  • Scroll to Additional Information.

  • Find the fields for: 

    • Novi API unique ID

    • QuickBooks customer ID

  • These are the values that must be added manually for companies that were not created through SSO.

 

4. Copy the IDs from Novi 1:18

  • Open the company in your Novi account.

  • Go to Settings for that company.

  • Copy both values: 

    • API unique ID

    • QuickBooks ID

  • Paste each value into the matching fields in the company record.

 

5. Save and re-sync the invoice 1:39

  • Save the updated company record.

  • Re-sync the invoice to Novi and QuickBooks.

  • Once both IDs are present, the integration should work successfully.
