Salesforce Opportunity won - create Quickbooks invoice
Overview
When sales opportunities are closed many actions can happen afterwards.
In this template when an opportunity is marked as “Closed - Won” in Salesforce, an invoice will be created within Quickbooks Online.
If that customer does not exist in QuickBooks Online it will be created then it will create the Invoice and create a relationship between Salesforce and Quickbooks for future reference.
