Frequently Asked Questions

Does Nexus AP require QuickBooks Desktop to be running?

The Desktop Connector syncs periodically and can queue updates when QuickBooks is closed. For real-time sync, QuickBooks should be running, but the connector handles offline scenarios gracefully.

Is my QuickBooks Desktop data secure?

Absolutely. Your QuickBooks file never leaves your network. The connector only transfers invoice data via encrypted connections, and you control exactly what syncs.

Which QuickBooks Desktop versions are supported?

We support QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier, and Enterprise editions from 2019 onwards. Contact us for older version compatibility.
