Inviting others to connect apps to Bookkeep

Bookkeep is dedicated to simplifying the process for administrators and owners to link certain ecommerce and POS applications for seamless synchronization of financial data with your accounting platform. To facilitate this, Bookkeep provides a "Client Connect" landing page for each entity, making it easier to share a link with business owners or admins to establish connections with their respective apps. This streamlined approach ensures a smooth integration process and efficient management of financial information within your accounting system.

This option is particularly useful if you do not have the login credentials for that specific app or if your access is restricted.

By selecting the "Ask owner to connect", you can either copy the link to share with the owner/admin or enter their email to allow Bookkeep to send an email with the link to "Client Connect" where they can establish the connection between their ecommerce and POS apps with Bookkeep's platform:

Enter Owner Email

If you choose to have Bookkeep send the email, the recipient will receive an email with a link to "Client Connect" where they can connect their ecommerce and POS apps using their owner credentials (you will be automatically cc-ed on the invitation email).
