FAQ

QuickBooks + Slack FAQ

Common questions about using QuickBooks with Slack through Kipper.

Kipper caches your QuickBooks data in a secure cloud database and keeps it updated via webhooks for near-instant updates. When you ask a question in Slack, Kipper translates it into a SQL query, runs it against your cached data, and returns the answer — typically in under 5 seconds. This is as a Slack app that responds in any channel or DM.
No. Kipper is strictly read-only. It can never create, update, or delete any records in your QuickBooks account. All access is one-way: data flows from QuickBooks to Kipper for querying, but nothing can ever flow back.
You can ask about customers, invoices, payments, vendors, bills, bill payments, inventory, credit memos, and vendor credits — the day-to-day records QuickBooks tracks. Kipper doesn't produce profit & loss statements, balance sheets, or other GL-level reports; it answers direct questions against your real QuickBooks records.
Yes. All data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Access is controlled through granular permission sets — you decide exactly what financial data each user or team can see. Every query is logged for a complete audit trail. Kipper never shares your data with third parties.
Pricing is the same across every interface — see full plan details and FAQs on our pricing page.
You need QuickBooks admin credentials for the initial connection so Kipper can access your data. After setup, your team members don't need QuickBooks licenses or logins — they simply ask questions in Slack and get answers.
Kipper keeps your data fresh via webhooks for near-instant updates. This means when data changes in QuickBooks, the updates are typically available for querying within minutes.
Yes. Kipper uses data access configurations to control visibility. You can set up a base configuration for your whole account, and Enterprise customers can define multiple configurations so different teams see only the data relevant to them.
