How do I map QuickBooks accounts, terms, and the default memo?
Once QuickBooks Online is connected, the QuickBooks Online card in Invoicing Settings shows a QuickBooks Defaults form. These IDs tell QuickBooks which accounts and terms to use when HangarOS creates an invoice. The form's own note: These IDs map invoices to your QuickBooks chart of accounts. Find them in QuickBooks under Accounting → Chart of Accounts. You need settings:manage.
