Hi Everyone,

We are in the process of implementing AP automation software that integrates with QuickBooks Enterprise/Desktop. We process approximately 500 invoices per month.

After evaluating several options, Square 9 seems like the best fit. The only concern is that they haven't yet provided a timely reference from a customer using the same setup as ours.

My question: Is anyone using Square 9 AP tool (Global Search) with QB Desktop? If so, I'd appreciate your feedback?

 

Thank you

Paula

Good Afternoon Paula,

Apologies for the late response here but I represent Contexure which is an AP automation platform serving the construction sector and we natively integrate with QB/Enterprise/Desktop.

If there is still interest and need referals in your sector, inform me and can speak a few minutes this week.

Alternatively, here is our current availability: https://zcal.co/jonathanbelluomo/contexture

Best,

Jon

Hi Paula,

We've worked with a lot of construction teams in similar setups (using QuickBooks Enterprise/Desktop and processing hundreds of invoices a month), and I know how tough it can be to find the right fit for AP automation.

If you're open to exploring other options beyond Square 9, I'd recommend checking out Adaptive. We built our platform specifically for builders and contractors, with AI that automatically captures and categorizes invoices, syncs to jobs and cost codes, and runs them through custom approval workflows- all before syncing cleanly into QB.

It's more than just AP automation. Adaptive helps tie together receipts, job costing, and even draw prep, so your AP, AR, and WIP reporting all stay aligned.

Happy to chat more or connect you with someone using Adaptive + QBDT if that's helpful.

Hey Paula! I've seen a few firms run into similar challenges with QBD integrations, especially around approvals and line-item accuracy. Have you looked at MakersHub yet? It's been a solid fit for construction workflows. I'd be glad to share more if it's helpful.

Paula, one thing that might be helpful as you're evaluating options is getting a quick baseline on your current AP process.

We put together a simple benchmarking tool for construction teams that lets you plug in your invoice volume, approval workflow, and AP setup to estimate cost per invoice and processing time:

https://beiinghuman.com/construction-ap-benchmarking-tool/

For teams around your size (~500 invoices/month on QuickBooks Desktop), it can be useful just to sanity check whether the solution you pick is actually moving the needle.

Might be worth a quick look as part of your evaluation-regardless of which direction you go.
