Connect QuickBooks to Lumion

Connect your school's QuickBooks so student invoices and payments recorded in Lumion sync to your accounting automatically — how to connect, reconnect, and what to expect.

Connect your school's QuickBooks so the invoices and payments you record in Lumion flow into your accounting automatically — matched to the right customer, with no double entry.

Who: Admins with Integrations access · Where: Settings › Integrations & API

What the integration does

Once connected, Lumion keeps your QuickBooks in sync with the money activity in Lumion: student invoices and payments are sent to QuickBooks and matched to the right customer, so your accountant isn't re-keying anything. Each school connects its own QuickBooks with its own credentials, and a school's data only ever reaches that school's QuickBooks.

Connect QuickBooks

Go to Settings › Integrations & API, find QuickBooks, and click to connect. You'll be sent to QuickBooks (Intuit) to sign in and authorize Lumion, then returned to the integrations page once the connection is established.

If it says "Finish Setup" and there's no button to click

QuickBooks appears on the Integrations & API page for everyone, but the integration isn't enabled by default. If the card shows Finish Setup with nothing you can click, the feature hasn't been switched on for your organization yet — there's no step you've missed and nothing to configure on your side.

Contact your Customer Success Manager or Lumion support and ask for the QuickBooks integration to be enabled for your account. Once it's on, return to Settings › Integrations & API and the connect action becomes available.

Reconnecting if it drops

A QuickBooks authorization can expire over time. If the integration shows an error or stops syncing, open the same Integrations & API page and reconnect — signing in to QuickBooks again restores the connection. Saving other settings won't disconnect QuickBooks.

Questions about a specific record

If a specific invoice or payment doesn't look right in QuickBooks, contact Lumion support with the student and the amount so the team can check how it synced — see How to Contact Lumion Support.
