Now, your accounting data can flow from MedLedger™ into QuickBooks™ with a single mouse click or even automatically! MedLedger™ allows you to designate debits and credits data flow into your selected QuickBooks™ accounts so that you get the data you want, when and where you want it.


The benefits of combining the power of MedLedger™ and QuickBooks™ are clear:

• More accounting efficiently
• No need for redundant data entry
• Fewer errors
• Reporting you're accustomed to
• Eliminate end-of-year reporting hassles
• Better and faster client service

Health Data Services will pay $500 toward an accountant's invoice for consulting services with regard to the implementation of MedLedger™ and QuickBooks™!

See how MedLedger™ integrates with QuickBooks™ below.


Accounts Setup

In QuickBooks, go to the Chart of Accounts and create any accounts required based on your decisions regarding the flow of data from MedLedger to QuickBooks (Figure 1).


Figure 1 - QuickBooks Chart of Accounts


In MedLedger, select the preferred accounts you created in QuickBooks that will receive MedLedger data (Figure 2). Optionally check the "Automatically Transfer..." checkbox for automatic data transfers from MedLedger to QuickBooks upon each MedLedger journal close.

How Data Transfers Work

In this example, we're going to select a closed journal entry (# 1373, Figure 3). Note the amounts under the Debits, Credits, and Total columns for ID # 1373. Select the Ledger entry and click the Transfer to QuickBooks button.

Figure 3
In MedLedger, the "working" area for accounting is called the "Journal"
and when the Journal is closed, all closed entries flow to the "Ledger."
The Ledger is shown in Figure 3 above.

An Information Box is displayed informing you of the data transfer (Figure 4).


Figure 4

Switch to QuickBooks and select the account that you designated to receive MedLedger data (in this example, the Accounts Receivable account, Figure 5). There you see MedLedger Ledger ID # 1373.
