Please follow ALL the instructions below for perfect and matching results between Hinawi and QuickBooks.

1. Before you start, change the account type in the Hinawi software chart of accounts regarding Cash Type, PDC, and CUC Account type.

2. All Hinawi software users must have a username in QuickBooks with full privileges.

3. If you have already created a QuickBooks data file and now want to use Hinawi software, the following must be verified in the QuickBooks file before using our software:

Make sure that the settings have been made and completed correctly.
Ensure you have made assignments between vendor payments and bills; the Report Unpaid bills Detail report under Vendors and the Payables report should not show any unlinked amounts. The same applies to the Open Invoices report under Customers and Receivables, which should not show unlinked amounts.

4. Users in QuickBooks must have full permission to access the activity forms they used in Hinawi software. For example:

Creating a new transaction in Hinawi Software: the User must have permission in QuickBooks to create a transaction for that particular transaction (form activity).

To edit a transaction in Hinawi Software: the User must have permission in QuickBooks to create, modify, and delete that transaction. This is an important point. If no permission is specified above, the transaction will be duplicated in QuickBooks.

If the User makes Edit the Cheque and his Setup is “Automatic posting,” the system will delete the original transaction and create the same one automatically. To avoid deletion, set the closing date in QuickBooks every month.

5. Do not merge or delete accounts in QuickBooks’s Chart of Accounts list or vendors, customers, or employees.

6. Do not convert the names in the Other Names list in QuickBooks to the Vendors, Customers, or Employees list.

7. To switch between multiple accounting files, close Hinawi software and open the QuickBooks file.

8. When you edit transactions in Hinawi software, QuickBooks deletes the original transaction and creates a new one. QuickBooks does not allow editing in Hinawi Software if this transaction is before the specified closing dates. To avoid deletion, set a closing date in QuickBooks each month.

9. Be sure to close all windows in QuickBooks that affect the integration in progress, such as windows from, videos, settings, set close date, set user, company information, add multiple entries, edit, review, recreate, or purge data, and any online QuickBooks windows opened from QuickBooks or the Set Credit window in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. And QuickBooks does not open company information in the company menu during integration or posting.

10. If the User enters the transaction through Hinawi software and later changes it in QuickBooks, it will not affect Hinawi software. So, the User must ALL work in Hinawi to ensure balances match.

11. The Hinawi software does not read multi-currencies from QuickBooks. However, when you create a transaction in Hinawi software, it automatically reads the currency from QuickBooks, except for the journal voucher, where the User must select the currency for each transaction.

12. We recommend administrators perform a “data close” in QuickBooks at the end of each month. This way, no transactions can be entered or edited by Hinawi Software.

13. Ensure the person in charge is the only one using the Admin User.

Do not share the password with other users.

14. Do not share the admin password for daily use

15. The date setting on all computers and servers is dd/mm/yyyy. Example: 31/12/2022
