Yes. Krokul CRM integrates with FreshBooks. Client companies and FreshBooks clients stay in sync, Krokul quotes and invoices become FreshBooks estimates and invoices, and payments recorded in FreshBooks settle the invoice on the deal. Time entries can flow into Krokul projects. The link runs through the Krokul app in Zapier, Make and Albato, or through the Krokul API and webhooks.
Via API and webhooksYou connect it with the Krokul app in an automation platform, the public API and signed webhooks. The page lists the steps for this service.
A client company created in Krokul becomes a FreshBooks client. When someone edits the client in FreshBooks, the client.update webhook tells Krokul, and the connector reads the record and updates the company. Each side keeps the ID of the other.
Estimate first, invoice after the yes
A Krokul quote becomes a FreshBooks estimate, which FreshBooks can email to the client. When the deal is won and the invoice is issued in Krokul, the connector creates the FreshBooks invoice for the same client with the same lines.
Payment recorded in FreshBooks
When a client pays an invoice in FreshBooks, the payment.create webhook arrives with the payment ID. Krokul reads it, finds the invoice by its FreshBooks ID and records the payment fact on the deal.
Transfers recorded in Krokul
Teams that log bank transfers in Krokul set Krokul as the payment owner. Each payment fact on a Krokul invoice then creates a matching entry on the same FreshBooks invoice, and the bookkeeper does not type it twice.
Hours tracked in FreshBooks land on the Krokul project
Link a FreshBooks project to its Krokul counterpart in the connector settings. Each new time entry adds the same hours there, so the hours report and the act for the client use real numbers.

Questions and answers
Does Krokul integrate with FreshBooks?
Yes. Krokul integrates with FreshBooks through the Krokul app in Zapier, Make and Albato, and through its API and webhooks.
Which way should payments flow?
Each connection names one payment owner. If clients pay FreshBooks invoices online, FreshBooks owns payments and Krokul reads them. If your team records transfers in Krokul first, Krokul owns them and sends each one to FreshBooks.
Can FreshBooks time entries count against Krokul projects?
Yes. Link a FreshBooks project to a Krokul project in the connector settings, and new time entries add hours to that Krokul project.
How fast do FreshBooks changes reach Krokul?
FreshBooks sends a webhook when a record changes. The notification holds only IDs, so the receiving flow reads the record from the FreshBooks API. In the other direction, Krokul sends its webhook as soon as the event happens.
Expenses, bills, accounting reports and payroll stay in FreshBooks. Each connection gives payments one owner. Either FreshBooks records a payment and Krokul reads it, or Krokul records it and sends it to FreshBooks.
