Get QuickBooks Desktop into Narada.

QuickBooks Desktop does have Scheduled Reports, but it silently skips runs — we don't recommend depending on it.

A 2-minute export when you want fresh numbers

1

Move in — once

Your whole history in one drop. Zip your ERP's export folder and drop it on your Data page — a zip is 5–10× smaller, and too big to email, which is exactly why it goes there, not to an inbox. Send as much as you have — ideally 2+ years, so the forecasts have a couple of seasonal cycles to learn from. A single file up to 2 GB works too (we split it for you); larger, split it or just zip the folder.

Keep it fed — set once

Then the small daily updates, following the steps below. This ERP can't schedule exports, so it's a two-minute routine — honest about that.

The exact steps

  1. 1

    You can try Scheduled Reports (Reports → Schedule Setup) — but it needs the PC awake, single-user mode, and it gives you no control over the time of day. Try it; don't trust it.

  2. 2

    The dependable way is the routine below.

  3. 3

    Each morning, export yesterday's sales and today's stock snapshot from your ERP. Those are the only two that move daily.

  4. 4

    Drag the files onto your Data page — or just email them (from your phone if you like) to your sales and inventory addresses. Send from an address registered on your Narada account; we only accept drops from people we know.

  5. 5

    That's it. Narada validates overnight. If a file has a problem we fix it on our side — you'll never be asked to re-send.

  6. 6

    Mondays, refresh products, customers and receivables too — or zip your ERP's whole export folder and drop it once. Narada sorts out what's inside.

For whoever runs IT: Intuit has an open investigation into scheduled reports not sending.
