Duplicated customer in Quickbooks
Quickbooks matches the blast ramp bill to company name and address. If the Quickbooks customer display name is changed and not changed in blast ramp, the system will create a new customer.
Similarly, if the SKUs do not match Quickbooks' version exactly (case sensitive and watch out for leading and trailing spaces), there will be another copy created in Quickbooks.
