It is not the cheapest accounting system, but I personally use the Quickbooks Shopify App and their online accounting system.  You can automatically export orders from Shopify, sync inventory levels, and keeps track of all your payouts and fees. The money I save from not having to hire an accountant far outways the monthly costs.

The first 30 days are free to try, and you have to have both the Shopify App and Quickbooks Online subscriptions that cost about $75 / month. If your budget is tight, Xero is a similar system and plans start at only $9.00 per month.
