Map event line items to reporting accounts

Use Line item mapping to choose a FlowerBuddy reporting category for each billable event item. This table calls the category Reporting account and shows its connected QuickBooks account beside it. Manage the shared categories on Accounting > Accounts.

Review the mapping table

The table includes:

• Item, the event line item's name.

• Type, such as a recipe, discount, or fee.

• Amount, the value represented in the accounting preview.

• Reporting account, the FlowerBuddy category you choose.

• QuickBooks account, the account connected to that reporting category.

Only nonzero billable items appear. If the table says No billable line items found for accounting review, there is nothing to map in the current event data.

Assign an account

1. Open the event and select Accounting.

2. In Line item mapping, open Reporting account for an item.

3. Select the category that describes the item.

4. Confirm the adjacent QuickBooks account.

FlowerBuddy saves each choice automatically and refreshes Journal entry preview. Continue until the unmapped count is gone and the preview no longer asks you to map event items.

If the connected QuickBooks account is not the intended destination, update the category's mapping before syncing.

After revenue recognition sync

After the revenue-recognition journal entry is synced, the mapping table becomes read-only. The saved mappings remain visible for review so that they stay aligned with the posted entry. Review the linked journal entry in QuickBooks for the posted result.
