Import data into Quickbooks?

What does Quickbooks use for data storage? Is it possible to import daily transactions from a third party POS application? What would we use? ODBC, etc.

Thanks!

QB2007 et seq uses a commercial RDB (Relational Database) optimized for QB. It is accessed using a SQL (Structured Query Language) interfaced via the QB SDK (Software Development Kit).

The SDK is available from the Intuit Developer Network

The SDK will allow you to "code" directly with QuickBooks so you can access and insert data. Additionally, there are also a host of 3rd party applications which might be a helpful at

Some will make the coding easier (see the tools & utilities section) plus you might get lucky and find an application that already integrates the third party POS (see ecommerce section).
