Amazon + QuickBooks Integration

Your Amazon COGS, in QuickBooks — without the spreadsheet

Amazon knows what you sold. QuickBooks records the transaction. But neither knows what it cost you to make. Craftybase fills that gap — importing your Amazon orders, calculating true COGS from your recipes, and syncing it all to QuickBooks as journal entries.

Works alongside Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, Square, Faire, Wix, Squarespace, and PayPal — connect all your sales channels and QuickBooks in the same Craftybase account.

Craftybase connects Amazon and QuickBooks for makers
The missing link between Amazon Seller Central and QuickBooks Online

Sync your true Amazon COGS to QuickBooks — automatically

Amazon tells QuickBooks what you sold. It doesn't tell QuickBooks what it cost you to make it. Craftybase fills that gap: it calculates your true Cost of Goods Sold from your product recipes and material costs, then syncs those figures to QuickBooks Online as journal entries — mapped to your chart of accounts.

  • COGS calculated from actual material costs, labor, and overhead
  • Inventory valuations using weighted rolling averages
  • Full audit trail for every sync — your accountant will thank you

QuickBooks Inventory Sync is available on the Growth plan.

Export Purchase Orders to QuickBooks from real material needs

When Amazon orders deplete your materials and you need to restock, Craftybase generates Purchase Orders based on actual inventory levels. Export those POs directly to QuickBooks Online — so your vendor bills hit the right accounts without re-keying.

  • Map your chart-of-accounts once; reuse on every export
  • Include item lines, quantities, and costs from your Purchases
  • Keep manufacturing and accounting records in sync

Amazon orders in, material costs out — automatically

Craftybase connects directly to Amazon Seller Central via API. Orders import automatically — hourly or daily — and Craftybase deducts the raw materials used from your inventory in real time. Every product you sell on Amazon is linked to the recipe that defines what it cost to make.

  • One-click Amazon API connection — up and running in under an hour
  • Real-time material level deductions per order
  • Reorder alerts before you run out of supplies mid-production

Tax time with Amazon + QuickBooks — finally manageable

Calculating COGS for your Schedule C from Amazon sales is a nightmare if all you have is Seller Central reports. Craftybase gives you accurate, recipe-based COGS for every product you sold on Amazon — all year, not just at year-end. Export to QuickBooks and hand it to your accountant without a scramble.

  • Year-end COGS reports by product and channel
  • Inventory valuation snapshots for balance sheet accuracy
  • All data in QuickBooks — no spreadsheet bridges

Frequently Asked Questions

Amazon + QuickBooks integration — common questions from makers

Does Craftybase integrate with both Amazon and QuickBooks at the same time?

Yes — Craftybase connects to Amazon Seller Central and QuickBooks Online simultaneously in the same account. Amazon orders import automatically, Craftybase calculates your true COGS from recipes and material costs, and those numbers sync directly to QuickBooks. No double-entry, no spreadsheet in the middle.

Does Craftybase work with Amazon and QuickBooks AND Etsy (or Shopify)?

Yes — Craftybase is built for multi-channel makers. You can connect Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, Square, Faire, Wix, Squarespace, and PayPal alongside QuickBooks Online — all in the same account. All storefronts feed into one inventory system, all your COGS data flows to QuickBooks. No reconciliation headaches between platforms.

How does Amazon Seller Central connect to QuickBooks through Craftybase?

Craftybase acts as the bridge. First, you connect Amazon Seller Central via a one-click API authorisation — your orders and products sync automatically. Then you connect QuickBooks Online, map your chart of accounts once, and Craftybase exports Purchase Orders and COGS data to QuickBooks as structured entries. Most sellers are fully connected in under an hour.

Can Craftybase calculate COGS for my Amazon orders and send it to QuickBooks?

That's exactly what Craftybase does. You build a bill of materials (recipe) for each product — every raw material, its quantity, and its cost. When an Amazon order comes in, Craftybase calculates the COGS automatically. On the Growth plan, those COGS figures sync to QuickBooks Online as journal entries, mapped to your chart of accounts, with a full audit trail.

What QuickBooks data does Craftybase sync for Amazon sellers?

All Craftybase plans include QuickBooks PO Sync — export Purchase Orders for your material restocks to QuickBooks. The Growth plan adds QuickBooks Inventory Sync, which pushes your COGS and inventory valuations as journal entries. Both features work whether your orders come from Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, or any other connected channel.

Why doesn't Amazon Seller Central sync directly with QuickBooks?

Amazon knows what you sold and for how much. QuickBooks records your financial transactions. But neither platform knows what it cost you to make what you sold — because that depends on your recipes, your material purchases, and how you batch your production. Craftybase tracks all of that, then acts as the data bridge between Amazon and QuickBooks so your books reflect your true manufacturing costs.

Is Craftybase only for large Amazon sellers?

Not at all. Craftybase is built specifically for small-batch and handmade businesses who sell on Amazon — candle makers, soap makers, jewellers, food producers, and anyone else who manufactures what they sell. Enterprise tools are over-engineered and overpriced for independent makers. Craftybase is sized and priced for small businesses, with plans starting at $24/month.
