I would request a feature update to add integration w/ Stessa for accounting purposes. I know many STR investment owners like myself use Stessa and would be valuable to automate the integration from OwnerRez. Currently its a manual process to log the breakouts like Housekeeping Revenue, Rental Revenue, County taxes held, and booking fees on the expense side.

Are you using Stessa in place of quickbooks?  I'm looking into Stessa and would love some feedback.  We have 6 short term rentals and one 6 unit apartment that I would be using it for.

Here is another opportunity for OR to reduce the costs of it's subscriers.

The QBO integration is not complete. I have waited years for this to be done. It is so complex that I need to hire an accountant to run it for me and I have used QB for decades.

Stessa is also associated with roofstock.com to enable sale and purchase of rental property.

I would love to see this integration as well.  I use Stessa for 18 properties.

This is a request that should be made of Stessa. OR has an open API and this integration would benefit STESSAs business model. I would use this but I would much prefer a wholistic approach to a accounting solution. I have several suggestions and it would be great if OR would hold a virtual user’s forum to set a course for an accounting solution that aligns with ORs business model and allows users to continue to scale their business in OR.

I am a financial professional and could add a lot of input to this discussion and I am sure there are a lot of other users that could do the same. A solid accounting solution could really differentiate OR.

Further, there are several requests on this forum relating to accounting and or QuickBooks, and if they were all consolidated into one, I am sure this would be one of the highest vote getting issues. Can I request OR to consolidate these all into one, and as mentioned above, please create some sort of organized discussion with everybody involved. 

I am going to open a new ticket, called Fix Accounting/Quickbooks - develop Roadmap , and ask that OR group all the accounting related issues and votes into this one issue and prioritize developing a roadmap
