Direct CRM sync and an open API are currently in active development. This is a top priority for the InventoryHQ team. In the meantime, you can export your job costing data and import it manually into your CRM or accounting software — the process is straightforward and covered in detail below.

Importing Job Costing Data Into Your CRM
Most CRM and accounting platforms — including common tools used by roofing contractors — accept CSV imports. InventoryHQ’s data exports are formatted to make this import as clean as possible.1

Follow the steps in Data Export to download a CSV of your job costing data. The export includes job name, materials used, unit costs, total cost, and margin data.

Open your CRM or accounting software
Navigate to the import section of your CRM or accounting platform. This is typically found under a Data, Import, or Settings menu — refer to your CRM’s documentation for the exact path.

Map the fields
During the import process, match the columns from the InventoryHQ CSV to the corresponding fields in your CRM. Common mappings include:
- Job Name → Project / Opportunity Name

- Gross Margin → Profit / Margin field
- Job Date → Close Date or Project Date

Complete the import
Run the import and verify that records appear correctly. Spot-check a few jobs to confirm the numbers transferred accurately.
What’s Coming: Direct CRM Sync

- Direct CRM sync — push job costing data, material usage, and job status updates directly to your CRM as jobs are completed in InventoryHQ
- Accounting software connectors — streamline the transfer of cost data to platforms commonly used by roofing contractors
