Setting Up Tracking Categories with QuickBooks Online

How to set up tracking categories with QuickBooks Online in Re-Leased — create Classes in QuickBooks, import them into Re-Leased, configure the integration settings, and assign a tracking option to each property.

Updated over a week ago

Tracking categories let you tag property-related transactions so they sync correctly between Re-Leased and QuickBooks Online. Each property must have a Class assigned as its tracking option — this ensures invoices entered in QuickBooks Online link back to the correct property in Re-Leased after a sync.


Step 1 — Set Up Classes in QuickBooks Online

  1. In QuickBooks Online, click the settings cog icon, then All lists, then Classes.

  2. Click New to add a Class for each property in Re-Leased.

Note: QuickBooks Online supports sub-classes, but these are not currently fully supported for property tracking in Re-Leased.

Note: Tracking categories/classes must be managed in QuickBooks Online — the list in Re-Leased is not editable.

  6. Click Save.

  1. Open the property and go to the Property Details tab.

  2. Scroll to the Tracking Categories section and select the appropriate Class from the dropdown.
