Pay Stub to QuickBooks
QuickBooks is where the numbers need to end up — but it cannot read a PDF. The bridge is structured data: extract the document into clean fields, export CSV or Excel, and use QuickBooks' built-in import tools to bring the records in without re-typing.
This converter handles the hard half: the AI reads the document and produces labeled, consistent columns. From there, QuickBooks Online's import features (and standard IIF/CSV workflows in Desktop) map columns to fields once, and every subsequent batch imports the same way.
Pay stub conversions separate gross pay, net pay, each deduction, and YTD totals into their own columns, so annualizing income or comparing stubs across applicants becomes spreadsheet arithmetic instead of squinting at PDFs.
How it works

Upload the pay stub
PDF (including scanned), PNG, JPG, or WEBP — from any source, with no template setup.

AI extracts the fields
Employee & employer name, Pay period dates, Gross pay, Net pay, and more — each with a confidence score so you know what to double-check.
- 3
Download the QuickBooks output
A CSV or Excel export with consistent, labeled columns you can map in QuickBooks' import screens — dates, amounts, names, and references in their own fields, plus JSON via the API if you use an integration tool like Zapier or Make to write into QuickBooks automatically.

FAQ
How do I get pay stub data into QuickBooks?
Upload the pay stub, export the extracted data as CSV or Excel, and use QuickBooks' import tools to map the columns. For hands-off automation, connect the REST API to QuickBooks through Zapier or Make.
Does this import directly into my QuickBooks account?
The export is a clean, import-ready file rather than a direct connection — you stay in control of the mapping. Automated writes are possible via the API plus an integration platform like Zapier.
Which QuickBooks versions does this work with?
Any version that accepts CSV/Excel import — QuickBooks Online's import screens and standard Desktop import workflows both work with the labeled columns in the export.
