This page describes how to connect the Tres Finance platform with ERP systems such as QuickBooks, Xero, and Netsuite. Connecting Tres with an ERP system allows you to sync transactions for keeping track of your company books properly. Later, create financial reports, efficiently prepare the company tax returns, and monitor the financial status of your crypto or fiat activity.

Note: You can be connected to only one ERP system at any time. To establish a connection with a different ERP system, you must first remove the current integration.

Connect Tres with QuickBooks

  1. In the sidebar of the Tres web console, click Integrations.

  2. Click the All integrations tab.

  3. In the QuickBooks card, click Connect.

  4. Use your Intuit account to log onto QuickBooks.
    When you are done, you are brought back to the Tres console. You should now be connected to the ERP system. Check that “Integrations > QuickBooks Integration” appears at the top of the screen and that the name of your organization and email address appear on the right.

Stay on this screen. The next step is to configure Tres to interact with QuickBooks. Learn more about using custom rules to automate the classification of your transactions.

Connect Tres to Xero
