# Connect Code to QuickBooks and automate your tasks

## Why integrate Code with QuickBooks

The Code to QuickBooks integration helps you sync data, automate manual tasks, and keep your stack aligned — without writing code.

### Connect any API your workflow needs

When a workflow needs to reach a service MESA doesn't natively support, Custom Code makes the connection. Write an HTTP request, parse the response, and pass the data to the next step — all in one workflow.

### Apply pricing or discount rules unique to your store

Custom Code runs JavaScript against live order data, letting you calculate custom pricing tiers, apply business-specific discounts, or validate order details before anything processes downstream.

### Encode business logic no built-in tool can match

Every operation has edge cases that standard tools can't anticipate. Custom Code lets you write the exact logic your business needs and slot it into any workflow step — validations, lookups, or calculations.

### Send every Shopify order to QuickBooks automatically

When an order is placed, MESA creates the corresponding record in QuickBooks — customer, line items, amount — without anyone touching it. Your books stay current from the moment a sale happens.

### Create QuickBooks invoices from Shopify orders

When a wholesale or B2B order comes in, MESA generates an invoice in QuickBooks and routes it to the right customer account. Your billing process runs without manual data entry between systems.

### Keep customer records consistent across both platforms

When a new customer places their first Shopify order, MESA creates or updates their record in QuickBooks. Your accounting and your store always reflect the same customer data.

## Build any Code and QuickBooks automation

MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running.
