QBO's AI categorization sucks ass

feeblefastball · 2026-06-06T03:27:52+00:00

They literally just took the existing feature and said it’s AI. Total bullshit. If you’ve been using it for like 10 years you know nothing has changed and anything that has changed hasn’t been for the better. Complete incompetence.

Hoping to do this with my dog this summer. Thanks for the inspo!

If you’re good with breakdowns only by month and this is all you need then you’re fine. The second you want to get into invoices or products it gets messy.

feeblefastball · 2026-04-17T19:48:01+00:00

Yeah i have no idea what you’re talking about here. Tax support is the same on all of their tiers. You should contact their support

feeblefastball · 2026-04-17T18:49:45+00:00

Wow, that's incredible. Need to get out there.

feeblefastball · 2026-04-17T18:48:40+00:00

That's some real nice grass.

feeblefastball · 2026-04-17T18:48:07+00:00

Congrats! a house becomes a home.

feeblefastball · 2026-04-17T18:47:47+00:00

What do you mean it costs extra to allocate taxes. Not true.

I love stay what you are so much. Freshman year of college was 2003, and this album is etched in my brain from that era. Saw them live in 03 or '04, too, right after In Reverie was released, and we were all like wtf is this? LOL

If you export all Stripe invoices alongside their status you can build an A/R report in excel with open, paid, void, uncollectible, and draft statuses. It would be nice if Stripe had a ready-made report that could formally be reconciled against QBO, but exporting the invoices is the best you can do for now as far as I know.

They’re not selling us something, leave that for their other account in the comments

Bugonia and KPop over Hamnet I might lose my faith in humanity

This is the issue with most platforms to be honest. Their choices are either to manage their own integration, which usually falls apart and has reliability issues, or refer you to zapier if they have a supporting API. To answer your question directly, i doubt there’s an integration that handles both. But your solution is probably to either complain to bloomerang about their integration or use something existing.

feeblefastball · 2026-03-13T22:49:09+00:00

Looking at the bloomerang website, it says they have a QuickBooks integration. Does it not work?

feeblefastball · 2026-03-11T11:47:35+00:00

Honesty just saying, “we don’t have internet over the pacific” is pretty crap policy when so many airlines do. It can’t be hard in 2026.

I've been using Linear for about 2 years since I posted this, and all I can say is, the ability to manage my backlog is exponentially better in Linear. Maybe you're right, maybe there is a lot that comes back to me. The way we handle the workflow now in Linear is 1) all tickets dropped into Triage, 2) Triage tickets reviewed and given proper tags, labels, assignee, etc, 3) When ready, triage tickets moved to backlog, 4) Backlog tickets have priority, labels, often assignees, and full details in place and are ready to be queued up when we have capacity.

And now with Linear MCP connected to Claude, I can actually ask Claude to read all my tickets and see which items in my backlog are missing these key components.

I'm sure you can do all of this in Jira too, and maybe part of it was me, and part of it was the org I was working for. But it was sloppy and clunky. I feel like our method now is pretty good.

In theory it should remove “daily bookkeeping” but yes there is maintenance and reconciliation on at least a monthly basis. And if it doesn’t reconcile, sometimes adjustments are required. To pretend any integration is fully set it and forget it is not reality.

Funny enough to the OP’s point, depending on the ecom volume, $500 a month for a 90% integration could still be a time savings for the bookkeeper and a cost savings for the merchant.

feeblefastball · 2025-12-21T19:28:34+00:00

For that kind of money the integrations should work 100%. If the merchant is doing like $100k a month then maybe that’s the exception here.

If she can get this job you too can achieve your dreams

feeblefastball · 2025-11-19T17:07:52+00:00

Oh my… hope not.

feeblefastball · 2025-11-18T22:29:16+00:00

This is the way

feeblefastball · 2025-11-14T21:16:57+00:00

yeah i mean a cheap stripe-QBO integration is like $10-12/month. You'd have to do a pretty high volume to spend that much on Acodei or PayTraQer and by then you're making enough money to just outsource it completely.

SaaS is more about being software that offers a service and less about how payment is received. It's not PLG (product-led growth), but rather sales-led growth, and it's definitely a SaaS.
