Is there any way to connect Google Calendar to Quickbooks for the purpose of creating invoices? All the apps that join the two I have seen so far are very expensive.

Hi there, Emily. Thanks for sharing your concern on the QuickBooks Community page.

Yes, you'll have the option to connect Google Calendar to QuickBooks Online. This way, you can create and send invoices to your customers. Let me show you how:

1. Create an invoice or open an existing one.
2. Once you fill out the necessary fields, click Save and send to open the preview window.
3. Select the From ▼ drop-down list.
4. Click Add Gmail address, then Connect Google account.
5. Sign in to your Google account.
6. Select Allow. Your Gmail address now appears in the From field.

Here are the things you need to remember after connecting your account.

• Once connected, you won’t have to sign in to your Google account again.
• Your Gmail inbox won’t be accessible in QuickBooks Online, but any user with permission to send an invoice can use this email address.
• Once you send an invoice, the status will display as Sent on the invoices page. If there’s an issue sending an invoice to the primary email, you’ll see an alert in QuickBooks Online. If there’s a problem sending to a Cc or Bcc email address, Gmail will send you a notification email.
