# Export your vendor list from QuickBooks Desktop

> Export your vendor list and 1099 summary from QuickBooks Desktop to bring your vendors into Dash.fi.

These steps export your vendor information and an expense summary from QuickBooks Desktop so you can bring your vendors into Dash.fi.

## Export vendor information

1. From the Home screen, select **Reports**.

2. Choose **Vendors and Payables**, then **Vendor Contact List**.

3. Click **Modify/Customize Report**.

4. Check the appropriate fields for your QuickBooks version:

   **QuickBooks versions prior to 2012:**

   * Vendor
   * Phone
   * Alt Phone
   * Street 1
   * Street 2
   * City
   * State
   * Zip

   **QuickBooks 2012 or later:**

   * Vendor
   * Phone
   * Alt Phone
   * Bill from Street 1
   * Bill from Street 2
   * Bill from City
   * Bill from State
   * Bill from Zip

5. Click the **Excel** button and select **Create New Worksheet**.

6. Save the file to your desktop using the naming convention `[Your Company Name] Vendor List`.

## Create the expense report

1. From the Home screen, click **Reports**.
2. Select **Vendors & Payables**, then scroll to **1099 Summary**.
3. In the 1099 Summary screen, under **Dates**, choose **Custom** and **Date Range**, then enter the previous year's date range (for example, April 12, 2011 to April 11, 2012 for a reference date of April 11, 2012).

## Bring these vendors into Dash.fi

You have two in-app options:

* **Sync automatically.** Dash.fi integrates with QuickBooks Desktop — connecting the integration syncs your vendors with no manual export needed. See [Connect QuickBooks Desktop](/integrations/accounting/connect-quickbooks-desktop).
* **Bulk import your export.** Upload the file you exported on the **Vendors** tab and map its columns to Dash.fi's vendor fields. See [Import your vendor list](/vendors/import).

Prefer not to do it yourself? Send your export to [support@dash.fi](mailto:support@dash.fi) or your account executive and the team will import it for you.
