What’s the Purpose of Fortnox HubSpot Integration?
The Fortnox HubSpot integration is leveraged by businesses who utilize HubSpot’s CRM capabilities, and require automated accounting for their finances. HubSpot allows companies to manage their customers, products and deals.
Companies can maintain product libraries with complete details of their products or services. They can include products directly from the library in their deals to ensure data accuracy. They can also include products in their customer quotes. HubSpot allows users to generate quotes from their deals, minimizing manual burden.
Quotes are financial documents clarifying the communication between a business and a customer by outlining all the product details and costs. Quotes help finalize deals by bringing clarity to the sales process. Once the deals are closed, their invoices are generated. That is where Fortnox steps in.
With Fortnox HubSpot integration, businesses get to sync these details between the two software:
- customer lists
- invoices
- deals
- products
HubSpot deals get automatically synced in Fortnox where they get turned into invoices. Employees are no longer required to put in manual effort to create customer invoices.
What are the Major Features & Advantages of Fortnox HubSpot Integration?
Here are the key benefits businesses derive from this integration:
- Automated Invoicing
Businesses can sync their HubSpot deals in Fortnox with a single click. Fortnox automatically and instantly converts these deals into invoices. This saves the companies hours’ worth of work, as they don’t have to create invoices manually. It also ensures error-free financial processes; as human data handling is always error-prone.
These invoices are then automatically reflected in HubSpot as well, and can be accessed in HubSpot’s deal record. This means that users don’t have to leave HubSpot to view their invoices. The integration offers them a unified view of their data.
Users don’t have to switch between systems repeatedly to track invoice statuses. The status changes are automatically updated in HubSpot as they occur in Fortnox. Employees can easily track whether invoices are paid, un-paid or overdue.
- Two-Way Data Syncing of Customer & Product Details
The integration eliminates data discrepancies by enabling a bi-directional flow of data between HubSpot and Fortnox. When new customers are added in HubSpot, or their details change, this data gets updated in Fortnox too. Similarly, if customers are added in Fortnox, they can be seen in HubSpot as well.
Users can select a customer in HubSpot, and view all their invoices generated by Fortnox. They can view their payment status, and past financial documentation as well.
When product details are updated in HubSpot, these changes also get synced with Fortnox. It ensures that the invoices created in Fortnox reflect the accurate product details.
Additionally, businesses can monitor all their Fortnox sales activity in HubSpot. They can track their deal progress in real-time, and update their deal notes. They can also monitor their revenue and sales trends from within HubSpot.
- Smart Error Handling
Data syncing failures are handled by the integration effectively. If a customer update fails to sync, for example, the users are notified about it immediately. Users are notified within HubSpot deal notes which provide context for deals, and act as their logging history.
Integration failures get automatically flagged in these deal notes. This allows users to identify issues, and resolve them promptly. After the issues get resolved, users can easily replay workflows, and sync data effectively.
This means that syncing failures can simply be retried. Users don’t have to manually align data between the platforms in this scenario too.

- Criteria-Based Invoicing
HubSpot facilitates criteria based invoicing in Fortnox. Businesses can create various criteria that trigger automated invoice creation in Fortnox. For instance, when the status of a deal in HubSpot changes to close-won (finalized), this triggers Fortnox into action, and it creates an invoice of this closed deal.
Similarly, businesses can create customer segments within HubSpot and sync them in Fortnox. They can set up workflows that ensure that if a customer belongs to a certain segment, a specific invoice template is used for them. They can also ensure that a customer with deal exceeding a certain amount is invoiced in a special way in Fortnox.
