Special Note regarding using ShipStation to download Orders into QuickBooks Online

While UltraCart officially only supports the *desktop versions of the QuickBooks application (*Pro Edition or Higher versions.) We have had feedback from merchants that have used a 3rd party addon to their ShipStation shipping fulfillment account to download their orders into their QB's Online account.
