For distributor reps who visit counters and job sites. Tools: [QuickBooks Online](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/quickbooks/) works today, in beta, for customers, open invoices and estimates. [HubSpot](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/hubspot/), ERPs ([NetSuite](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/netsuite/), [Acumatica](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/acumatica/), [Epicor Kinetic](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/epicor-kinetic/), [Epicor Prophet 21](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/epicor-p21/)) and [Salesforce](https://asktack.com/docs/integrations/salesforce/) are coming soon.

**What works today:** drafting an estimate in QuickBooks and checking what an account owes. Order-history lookups and visit logging need the CRM and ERP integrations, so these threads show where we're headed.
