SalesOrder Component
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
A SalesOrder is used in place of an INVOICE when not all goods have been shipped.
Syntax
TiqbSalesOrder
Remarks
This functionality requires a U.S. version of QuickBooks 2003, with the most recent updates from Intuit. The default value for QBXMLVersion for this component is "2.1". If your version of QuickBooks does not support QBXML version 2.1, the component will fail with an error.
Moreover, adding new Sales Orders is a feature of QuickBooks Premier and above; it is not supported in QuickBooks Pro.
A SalesOrder tracks inventory that is on back order for a customer. The operation of the component is similar to that of the Invoice Component.
Required Fields (Add): Customer*, Items
Supported Methods: Add, Get (Id), Delete
Example
SalesOrder1.CustomerName = "John Q. Customer" '*
SalesOrder1.TransactionDate = "1/17/03"
SalesOrder1.ItemCount = 1
SalesOrder1.ItemName(0) = "Our Company's Product" '*
SalesOrder1.ItemAmount(0) = "140.00"
SalesOrder1.Add()
'*: Item must already exist in QuickBooks.
Amount is the total of the item lines and (if present) expense lines. It is computed automatically, and should never be set.
Item Lines: Item lines are used to track the ordering of goods or services. To add item lines to the transaction, first set the ItemCount. This will initialize the Items array. For each item you add, set the Item Id (or Name) to an item that has been defined in QuickBooks. The Item Rate/RatePercent, Quantity, Description, Class, TaxCode, and Amount properties may be optionally set for each item as well.
The component supports a variety of other operations as well. The component's Get and Delete methods may be used to retrieve and delete SalesOrders, respectively. The ObjSearch Component may be used to search for SalesOrders in the QuickBooks database.

cmDontCare
Remarks
The mode of connection to QuickBooks. Specifies whether the integrated application logs in using single-user or multi-user mode.
The following values are permitted:
cmDontCare | 0 |
cmSingleUserMode | 1 |
cmMultiUserMode | 2 |
About Single-User and Multi-User Modes
If the connection to QuickBooks is made in single-user mode, QuickBooks will give exclusive access to the connecting application. It will lock out all other integrated applications; if QuickBooks and the company file are not already open in single-user mode by the QuickBooks user, the user will be locked out as well.
If the connection is made in multi-user mode, QuickBooks will allow all other integrated applications access. QuickBooks end users on other machines will also be allowed to access the file. However, if the application (rather than the end user) starts QuickBooks automatically, end users on the same machine will still be locked out.
If cmDontCare is specified, an appropriate connection mode will be chosen automatically. If a company file is open in either single-user or multi-user mode, the integrated application will accept that connection mode. If no company file is open, QuickBooks will login automatically in multi-user mode.
About Integrated and Automatic Login
Note that your application's login to QuickBooks might be either automatic or interactive. Interactive login is used when QuickBooks is already open. Access will be shared between the integrated application and the QuickBooks end user, and if multi-user mode is specified, other applications and users will have access as well. When a connection is made, QuickBooks will show a dialog window to the user, and ask the user if he/she wants to permit the connection.
Automatic login is used when QuickBooks is not already open. QuickBooks will be opened in the background, and will run until your application has finished its connection with QuickBooks. The QuickBooks user interface will not be displayed, and end-users on the same machine will be locked out. End-users on other machines, however, will be allowed access if multi-user mode is specified.
By default integrated applications do not have permission to login automatically. The first time an application interacts with QuickBooks, it must do so interactively, with QuickBooks and the company file open. The QuickBooks end user may then grant automatic login permission through Edit Preferences - Integrated Applications in the QuickBooks user interface. Click on the name of the application and then "Properties", and you may allow the application to login automatically.
For automatic login the CompanyFile must be specified. CompanyFile, ApplicationName, and other properties relating to the QuickBooks connection may be edited through QBConnectionString.
QBConnectionString Property (SalesOrder Component)
An aggregate consisting of various QuickBooks connection properties.
Syntax
property QBConnectionString: String read get_QBConnectionString write set_QBConnectionString;
Default Value
''
Remarks
QBConnectionString allows the user to customize the application's interaction with QuickBooks.
The connection properties should be formatted in a sequence as follows:
propertyname = "propertyvalue" propertyname = "propertyvalue" ...
The order is irrelevant, and the whitespace around the equal sign is optional.
The following properties are currently supported:
ApplicationName | The name of the developer's application. This name will appear when the application first connects to QuickBooks; QuickBooks will display this name and prompt the user to grant or refuse access. |
CompanyFile | The name of the company file to open. If QuickBooks is not currently open with a company
file, QuickBooks will be automatically opened in the background with the file specified.
Do not set CompanyFile when QuickBooks is open; if QuickBooks is open through the
application UI, only that company file may be used.
This setting is not applicable when communicating with QB Connector. |
URL | The URL for the Remote Connector, e.g., 'http://localhost:2080'. If the URL is specified, the component will not communicate directly with QuickBooks, and will instead send a request to the specified web address. QuickBooks and the Remote Connector should be installed at the remote location, and if the connector is listening on the specified port, it will communicate the component's request to QuickBooks, and return the response. |
User | A username for the Remote Connector connection (if required on the Connector side) |
Password | A password for the Remote Connector connection (if required on the Connector side) |
Timeout | A timeout, in seconds, for the Remote Connector connection. If the Connector does not finish and respond within the chosen length of time, the component will generate an exception instead of hanging. |
DelayAfterClose | A delay, in milliseconds, to be applied after each time a connection to QuickBooks is closed. If QuickBooks is generating internal errors (in particular with automatic login) setting this delay to a positive value may solve the problem. |
FirewallHost | Contains the name or IP address of firewall. If a FirewallHost is given, the requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting. |
FirewallPassword | Contains a password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall. If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword configs are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception. |
FirewallPort | Contains the TCP port for the firewall FirewallHost. Note this is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value. |
FirewallType | Determines the type of firewall to connect through. Supported values are: 0 - no firewall (default), 1 - Tunneling proxy, 2 - SOCKS4 proxy, and 3 - SOCKS5 proxy. For the Tunneling proxy (1), the FirewallPort defaults to 80. For SOCKS4 (2) and SOCKS5 (3) the FirewallPort defaults to 1080. |
FirewallUser | Contains a user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall. If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword configs are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception. |
ProxyAuthorization | Supported values are 0 - Basic authorization, 1 - Digest authentication, 3 - No authentication, and 4 - NTLM authentication. |
ProxyPassword | Contains a password if authentication is to be used for the proxy. |
ProxyPort | Contains the TCP port for a ProxyServer; (default 80). |
ProxySSL | Determines when to use SSL for the connection to the proxy. The applicable values are 0 - Automatic (SSL for https URLs, non-SSL for http URLs), 1 - The connection is always SSL-enabled, 2 - SSL is not enabled for any connection, and 3 - Connection is through a tunneling proxy. |
ProxyServer | If a ProxyServer is specified, then the HTTP request is sent to the proxy instead of the server otherwise specified. If the ProxyServer is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated and upon successful termination of the request, the ProxyServer is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned. |
ProxyUser | Contains a user name, if authentication is to be used for the proxy. |
LocalHost | The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted. |
LocalPort | The TCP port in the local host where the component binds. |
UseRDS | Whether to connect using Remote Data Sharing (RDS). If set to True, the component will attempt to connect using the RDS client installed on the machine. The RDS client and server must be configured separately. The default value is False. |
QBOpenCompanyFile Property (SalesOrder Component)
The file currently open in QuickBooks.
Syntax
property QBOpenCompanyFile: String read get_QBOpenCompanyFile;
Default Value
''
Remarks
The name of the file currently open in QuickBooks, specified completely with the path.
A query is submitted to QuickBooks when the value of this property is read. The empty string will be returned if no file is open, if QuickBooks is open in an access mode incompatible with QBConnectionMode, or if an error occurs.
If the value of this property is nonempty, the component may interact exclusively with the open file.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
QBRequestAggregate Property (SalesOrder Component)
The request aggregate.
Syntax
property QBRequestAggregate: String read get_QBRequestAggregate write set_QBRequestAggregate;
Default Value
''
Remarks
This property will be populated when QBRequestMode is set to rmOffline and a method is called. This is used when working with the QBWCServer component to generate requests to be sent to QuickBooks Web Connector.
This property is not available at design time.
QBRequestId Property (SalesOrder Component)
The Id of the next message to be sent to QuickBooks.
Syntax
property QBRequestId: String read get_QBRequestId write set_QBRequestId;
Default Value
''
Remarks
The next message Id to be sent to QuickBooks. Message Id's are used by CheckRequestStatus to check on the status of previously made requests.
This property allows the user to determine whether a previous request was successfully processed by QuickBooks. Ordinarily QuickBooks either processes requests successfully or returns an error, but in the event of a power outage or other system failure, QuickBooks might or might not have time to process a request before issuing a response.
QuickBooks stores internally a list of QBRequestIds for which it has processed a request, and updated its internal state accordingly. Use of this property in conjunction with CheckRequestStatus allows the user to query this internal list.
To enable error recovery, the user application should store the value of QBRequestId before submitting a request to QuickBooks. If a system failure occurs, CheckRequestStatus should be called with this value of QBRequestId to find whether the request was processed before the system failed.
Unique values for QBRequestId will be generated on startup and after each request to QuickBooks. The automatically generated value may be overwritten by the user. Error checking may be turned off by setting QBRequestId equal to the empty string. See CheckRequestStatus for more information on error recovery.
This property is not available at design time.
QBRequestMode Property (SalesOrder Component)
Defines whether the request is made online or stored offline.
Syntax
property QBRequestMode: TiqbQBRequestModes read get_QBRequestMode write set_QBRequestMode;
TiqbQBRequestModes = ( rmOnline, rmOffline );
Default Value
rmOnline
Remarks
This property defines the behavior of the component when calling a method. Possible values are:
0 (rmOnline - default) | The request is made normally. |
1 (rmOffline) | The request is generated but not sent, and QBRequestAggregate is populated. |
For normal communication to QuickBooks either directly or through the QBConnector application use the default online mode.
QBResponseAggregate Property (SalesOrder Component)
The last QBXML response aggregate received from QuickBooks.
Syntax
property QBResponseAggregate: String read get_QBResponseAggregate write set_QBResponseAggregate;
Default Value
''
Remarks
The last QBXML response aggregate received from QuickBooks. This property is set whenever a response is received from QuickBooks.
This property may also be set to a response aggregate. When set to a QBXML aggregate, such as a response from ObjSearch or QBWCServer the component will parse the response as if it had been received directly from QuickBooks and the applicable properties will be updated.
This property is not available at design time.
QBXMLVersion Property (SalesOrder Component)
The version of QBXML used in the outgoing message.
Syntax
property QBXMLVersion: String read get_QBXMLVersion write set_QBXMLVersion;
Default Value
'3.0'
Remarks
The SalesOrder prodtype; requires the use of QBXML version 2.1 or above. In particular, a U.S. version of QuickBooks 2003 or higher is required, and all software updates to QuickBooks must be downloaded from Intuit.
If the property is set to a value such as "1.1", "CA2.0", etc., the component will fail with an error. Currently sales orders cannot be added to Canadian editions of QuickBooks, although future versions of QuickBooks and QBXML might support this.
This property is not available at design time.
RefId Property (SalesOrder Component)
An alphanumerical identifier generated by the server.
Syntax
property RefId: String read get_RefId;
Default Value

Syntax
property RefNumber: String read get_RefNumber write set_RefNumber;
Default Value
''
Remarks
This is the reference number assigned to a transaction. Depending on the type of transaction, it appears in the QuickBooks user interface as Bill Number, Invoice Number, etc.
Reference numbers are alphanumeric strings and are not limited to actually being numbers.
For some types of transactions, if RefNumber is not assigned, QuickBooks will automatically assign a unique one. Reference numbers should generally be unique, but are not guaranteed to be so. It is recommended that applications generating their own reference numbers take steps to ensure their uniqueness.
SalesRepId Property (SalesOrder Component)
Reference to (initials of) sales rep.
Syntax
property SalesRepId: String read get_SalesRepId write set_SalesRepId;
Default Value
''

Using the Id is recommended when feasible, as the Id is guaranteed to never change once defined.
Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Name property to an empty string.
ShipMethodName Property (SalesOrder Component)
Reference to preferred method of shipping.
Syntax
property ShipMethodName: String read get_ShipMethodName write set_ShipMethodName;
Default Value
''
Remarks
Reference to the preferred method of shipping, e.g., UPS.
Name/Id Reference Properties
This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its full Name (this property) or its Id, for which a corresponding property is defined. If Name is used, it must contain the full name of the object referred to, as generated by QuickBooks. For hierarchically defined objects, such as Customers, this includes the names of parent objects, and the full name can be determined by reading the FullName special field.
Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Id property to an empty string.
ShippingAddress Property (SalesOrder Component)

TermsId Property (SalesOrder Component)
Reference to terms of payment.
Syntax
property TermsId: String read get_TermsId write set_TermsId;
Default Value
''
Remarks
A reference to terms of payment, predefined within QuickBooks. A typical example might be "2% 10 Net 60", i.e., payment due within 60 days, with a 2% discount if payment is made within 10 days.
Id/Name Reference Properties
This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its Id (this property) or its full Name, for which a corresponding property is defined.

property TransactionDate: String read get_TransactionDate write set_TransactionDate;
Default Value
''
Remarks
The date of the transaction.
The standard formatting for dates is YYYY-MM-DD; i.e., September 2, 2002 is formatted as 2002-09-02. When getting the value of a date property, the date will always be in this format.
When setting the value of a date property, the formats MM-DD-YY, MM-DD-YYYY, MM/DD/YY, and MM/DD/YYYY are also acceptable. Dates in these formats will be automatically parsed and stored in YYYY-MM-DD format.
This property is required in Accounts Payable (Bill and VendorCredit) transactions. In other kinds of transactions this property is optional.
Add Method (SalesOrder Component)
Adds the record into QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure Add();
Remarks
Add is used to add the object to QuickBooks.
If QuickBooks is able to add the object, it will return a copy of the object, and the values of all properties will be reset from the QuickBooks response. The QBResponseAggregate property will also be set to the entire QBXML aggregate received from QuickBooks.
For example, read-only properties such as RefIds will be assigned. In transaction objects, line item information will be filled out, and ItemGroups will be broken up into their respective Items. Also, a total will be calculated.
If QuickBooks is not able to add the object, a trappable error will occur.
Cancel Method (SalesOrder Component)
Cancels (voids) the transaction.
Syntax
procedure Cancel();
Remarks
Cancel causes the transaction to be voided in QuickBooks. The amount of the transaction and all line item quantities are changed to zero, and the memo is changed to "VOID:". The transaction will not, however, be deleted.
The transaction canceled in QuickBooks is the one specified by RefId. If the value of RefId is known then Get should first be called to retrieve the transaction. Otherwise the ObjSearch component should be used to search for the desired transaction in the QuickBooks database.
As the QuickBooks response to Cancel does not include the updated transaction, the values of all properties are instead set to their defaults. To get a copy of the updated transaction, the value of RefId should first be stored, and then Get should be called.
CheckRequestStatus Method (SalesOrder Component)
Checks whether or not the specified request was processed by QuickBooks.
Syntax
function CheckRequestStatus(RequestId: String): String;
Remarks
This method allows the user to determine whether a previous request was successfully processed by QuickBooks. Ordinarily QuickBooks either processes requests successfully or returns an error, but in the event of a power outage or other system failure, QuickBooks might or might not have time to process a request before issuing a response.
QuickBooks stores internally a list of QBRequestIds for which it has processed a request, and updated its internal state accordingly. Use of this method allows the user to query the list for any RequestId whose value is known.
The method returns a string corresponding to the result of the query. If the request was processed successfully, an empty string ("") will be returned. If the request was not processed, the string "Request not processed." will be returned. If the request was processed but an error occurred, a string containing the error code and a description will be returned; for example, "801: A QuickBooks internal error has occurred."
See QBRequestId for more information on error recovery.
CloseQBConnection Method (SalesOrder Component)
Closes a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure CloseQBConnection();
Remarks
Invoking CloseQBConnection closes the QuickBooks connection specified in QBConnectionString. After the connection has been closed, the component will revert to its default behavior, and a new connection will be established for each request until QBConnectionString is invoked again.
In case the connection is already closed invoking CloseQBConnection will have no effect. Moreover, if multiple connections are open CloseQBConnection will only close the connection specified in QBConnectionString.
Be sure to always invoke this method after calling OpenQBConnection.
Config Method (SalesOrder Component)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
function Config(ConfigurationString: String): String;
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Delete Method (SalesOrder Component)
Deletes the record from QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure Delete();
Remarks
Delete causes the object to be deleted in QuickBooks. After this method is called, the values of all fields will be reset to their defaults.
The object deleted in QuickBooks is the one specified by RefId. This read-only property may be assigned either by calling Get or by assigning the value of QBResponseAggregate.
A typical example:
Customer.GetByName("John Smith") 'this will assign the RefId
Customer.Delete()
Deleting entity objects (Customer, Employee, and Vendor) requires that
QuickBooks be open in single-user mode. Transaction objects, however, may be deleted
while QuickBooks is in any mode.
Use this method with caution, as there is no way to recover deleted objects.
Get Method (SalesOrder Component)
Gets a single record from QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure Get(Id: String);
Remarks
Get may be used to retrieve a single object from QuickBooks, based on its RefId. When the method is called, a search will be initiated for the requested object. If it is found, all properties of the component will be set to the information retrieved from QuickBooks. The QBResponseAggregate property will also be set to the entire QBXML aggregate received from QuickBooks.
The RefId of any component, or the Id of any reference property, may be used for the parameter. So for example, the following pseudocode would get customer information for a Customer listed on an Invoice:
Customer.Get( Invoice.CustomerId )
The GetByName method, present only in entity objects (Customer, Vendor, and Employee) and QBObject, may be used to get an object based on its Name. To retrieve multiple objects, to retrieve transaction objects whose RefId is not known, or to perform more advanced searches the ObjSearch component may be used.
GetCustomField Method (SalesOrder Component)
Gets a custom field value from QuickBooks.
Syntax
function GetCustomField(FieldName: String): String;
Remarks
This method will get the value of a custom field, which has been defined by the user from within the QuickBooks UI.
To read the values of custom fields, be sure to set QBXMLVersion to at least "2.0" when retrieving data from QuickBooks. Then, QuickBooks will return custom field information, and it will be accessible through this method.
You may also invoke Config to read the value of custom fields. However, to set the value of custom fields you must set QBXMLVersion to at least "3.0" and invoke SetCustomField.
ImportQBXML Method (SalesOrder Component)
Imports a QBXML response aggregate.
Syntax
procedure ImportQBXML(XMLData: String);
Remarks
This method imports a QBXML response aggregate. When called with a QBXML aggregate, such as a response from ObjSearch or QBWCServer the component will parse the response as if it had been received directly from QuickBooks and the applicable properties will be updated.
OpenQBConnection Method (SalesOrder Component)
Opens a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure OpenQBConnection();
Remarks
Invoking OpenQBConnection will open a persistent connection to QuickBooks. After invoking OpenQBConnection, all requests such as Get, Add, etc. will use the established connection until CloseQBConnection is invoked.
The effect of OpenQBConnection is to increase performance. If OpenQBConnection is not invoked, a connection to QuickBooks will automatically be created and destroyed each time the component communicates with QuickBooks. Using OpenQBConnection will be faster, particularly in the case of automatic login.
After OpenQBConnection is invoked, QuickBooks will issue a connection ticket, and it will be stored in QBConnectionString. When CloseQBConnection is invoked the ticket will be invalidated, and any further attempts to use it will fail.
Be sure to invoke CloseQBConnection when you have finished communicating with QuickBooks. Leaving an open QuickBooks connection may lock out other integrated applications, affect QuickBooks performance, or cause other problems.
Reset Method (SalesOrder Component)
Resets all properties to their defaults.
Syntax
procedure Reset();
Remarks
This method resets the values of all properties (and all special fields) to their defaults.
After calling this method, the component may be reused as if it were newly created.
SetCustomField Method (SalesOrder Component)
Sets a custom field value within QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure SetCustomField(FieldName: String; FieldValue: String);
Remarks
This method requires QuickBooks 2004 or above, with QBXMLVersion set to at least "3.0".
This method will immediately set the value of a QuickBooks custom field, which has been defined by the user from within the QuickBooks UI. Before calling this method, the preceding operation must retrieve the object from QuickBooks, using Get, ObjSearch, etc. Then, you may use SetCustomField to set custom field values (the fields will be modified or added, as appropriate).
Note that invoking this method will create a connection to QuickBooks if one is not already in place.
Update Method (SalesOrder Component)
Updates the sales order in QuickBooks.
Syntax
procedure Update();
Remarks
This method will update the sales order in QuickBooks.
When the method is called, an Update request will be submitted to QuickBooks. The sales order will have its information updated based on the various property values.
If QuickBooks is able to update the object, it will return a copy of the object, and the values of all properties will be reset from the QuickBooks response. The QBResponseAggregate property will also be set to the entire QBXML aggregate received from QuickBooks.
QBXMLVersion must be set to "3.0" or greater to update a sales order. Moreover, QBXMLVersion should be set to the same value when retrieving the sales order from QuickBooks (either through ObjSearch or through the Get method).
Error Event (SalesOrder Component)
Information about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
type TErrorEvent = procedure ( Sender: TObject; ErrorCode: Integer; const Description: String ) of Object;
property OnError: TErrorEvent read FOnError write FOnError;
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.
ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
SSLServerAuthentication Event (SalesOrder Component)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Syntax
type TSSLServerAuthenticationEvent = procedure ( Sender: TObject; CertEncoded: String; CertEncodedB: TBytes; const CertSubject: String; const CertIssuer: String; const Status: String; var Accept: Boolean ) of Object;
property OnSSLServerAuthentication: TSSLServerAuthenticationEvent read FOnSSLServerAuthentication write FOnSSLServerAuthentication;
Remarks
This event is where the client can decide whether to continue with the connection process or not. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether to continue or not.
When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string "OK"). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.
SSLStatus Event (SalesOrder Component)
Shows the progress of the secure connection.
Syntax
type TSSLStatusEvent = procedure ( Sender: TObject; const Message: String ) of Object;
property OnSSLStatus: TSSLStatusEvent read FOnSSLStatus write FOnSSLStatus;
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Status Event (SalesOrder Component)
Shows the progress of the QuickBooks connection.
Syntax
type TStatusEvent = procedure ( Sender: TObject; const Message: String ) of Object;
property OnStatus: TStatusEvent read FOnStatus write FOnStatus;
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Warning Event (SalesOrder Component)
Fired when a warning occurs.
Syntax
type TWarningEvent = procedure ( Sender: TObject; Code: Integer; const Description: String ) of Object;
property OnWarning: TWarningEvent read FOnWarning write FOnWarning;
Remarks
The Warning event is fired when the component has produced, or will produce, possibly unexpected results.
Warnings may be generated by QuickBooks or the component. Starred warning codes correspond to warnings and warning codes generated by QuickBooks.
510* | Object added successfully, but cannot now be read. |
520* | Insufficient permissions to get all data. |
801 | Unable to update field (name). |
802 | Unable to parse name. |
Warning 801 will be thrown if the user attempts to Update properties
that cannot be updated. For example, the following code will cause this warning
to be fired:
Customer1.GetByName("Joe Smith")
Customer1.Email = "joe@abc.com" 'ok
Customer1.CreditLimit = "200.00" 'Not used in Update operations!
Customer1.Update()
Only the email address will be updated, and the credit limit will be unchanged.
Each property description for entity objects lists whether or not it is used
in Update operations.
LinkedTransaction Type
A reference to an existing transaction in QuickBooks.
Remarks
A component may link to transactions which already exist in QuickBooks. This type contains information about those linked transactions.
Fields
Amount String |
The amount of the linked transaction. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date String |
The date of the linked transaction. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
LinkType String |
Indicates the nature of the link between the transactions. Possible responses include:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
RefNumber String |
This is the reference number assigned to the linked transaction. Depending on the type of transaction, it appears in the QuickBooks user interface as Bill Number, Invoice Number, etc. Reference numbers are alphanumeric strings and are not limited to actually being numbers. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TxnId String |
This property can be used by another component to reference the original transaction which is linked to the current response. Simply set the Id property of the appropriate component (based on the TxnType property) and call the Get method. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TxnType String |
This property indicates which type of linked transaction has been returned. The TxnType returned will tell you which component to use to retrieve the original transaction. Use the TxnId as the Id parameter in the indicated component's Get method to return the original transaction details. Valid values include:
|
Constructors
constructor Create();
SalesOrderItem Type
A single sales order line item.
Remarks
This type of line item is used by the SalesOrder component.
Fields
Aggregate String |
Contains an XML aggregate of the line item. If the line item has not been modified since receiving a response from QuickBooks, the exact LineRet aggregate that QuickBooks returned will be contained in this XML aggregate. However, if you have made changes to the this line item's properties the Aggregate property will re-generate the line item XML with the new data. If you set the other line item properties and then query the Aggregate, a LineRet aggregate will be generated from the currently set properties. You may set this property with raw xml. So long as you do not modify any other properties (forcing the line item to regenerate based on new changes), the xml will be sent as-is to the QuickBooks request processor. It is essential that you properly format the XML that you place in this property. When setting this property manually, the component will send exactly what you have set. You must ensure your xml is appropriate for the action you are attempting. For instance, if you are Adding an Invoice, you must ensure the outer tags are "InvoiceLineAdd". If Modifying an Invoice, the outer tags must be "InvoiceLineMod". If you do not expressly set the Aggregate field with your own custom XML, all of this will be taken care of you automatically by the component. |
Amount String |
Line item property: the total amount of this item. This property represents the total amount of a transaction line. If Rate, Cost and/or Quantity are specified the Amount will be automatically computed by QuickBooks. Whether Rate or Cost is used will depend on the transaction type. Rate is available for CreditMemo, Estimate, Invoice, PurchaseOrder, SalesOrder, and SalesReceipt transactions while Cost is available for Bill, CCCharge, CCCredit, Check, ItemReceipt, and VendorCredit transactions. The amount should be formatted as a string in dollars. |
ClassId String |
Line item property: Reference to the class of the item. A reference to the class of this item. Id/Name Reference Properties This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its Id (this property) or its full Name, for which a corresponding property is defined. Using the Id is recommended when feasible, as the Id is guaranteed to never change once defined. Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Name property to an empty string. |
ClassName String |
Line item property: Reference to the class of the item. Name/Id Reference Properties This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its full Name (this property) or its Id, for which a corresponding property is defined. If Name is used, it must contain the full name of the object referred to, as generated by QuickBooks. For hierarchically defined objects, such as Customers, this includes the names of parent objects, and the full name can be determined by reading the FullName special field. Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Id property to an empty string. |
Description String |
Line item property: Description of item. A string description of the Item specified by ItemName or ItemId. |
GroupId String |
Reference to a group of line items. Line item groups represent sets of items that are grouped together. A line item group is a predefined shortcut within QuickBooks. For example, a "Cheeseburger Meal" might consist of a cheeseburger, an order of french fries, and a soft drink. To include an item group in a transaction one should simply set the value of ItemGroup, and optionally, of ItemQuantity. QuickBooks will automatically expand the group into its constituent items. This will send an ItemGroup instead of a regular Item on for this index. When an ItemGroup is returned from QuickBooks it contains xml aggregates of all of the items in the group you specified. You may access the group's regular properties (total Amount, Quantity, and Description), but the line items returned are not accessible with this object. However, you may parse the returned line items by passing the contents of the Aggregate property to the LineItemGroups component. You may use the LineItemGroups component to view or change the contents of the line items, and then pass the xml aggregate generated by the component back to the Aggregate field to use in an Update transaction. |
GroupName String |
Reference to a group of line items. Line item groups represent sets of items that are grouped together. A line item group is a predefined shortcut within QuickBooks. For example, a "Cheeseburger Meal" might consist of a cheeseburger, an order of french fries, and a soft drink. To include an item group in a transaction one should simply set the value of ItemGroup, and optionally, of ItemQuantity. QuickBooks will automatically expand the group into its constituent items. This will send an ItemGroup instead of a regular Item on for this index. When an ItemGroup is returned from QuickBooks it contains xml aggregates of all of the items in the group you specified. You may access the group's regular properties (total Amount, Quantity, and Description), but the line items returned are not accessible with this object. However, you may parse the returned line items by passing the contents of the Aggregate property to the LineItemGroups component. You may use the LineItemGroups component to view or change the contents of the line items, and then pass the xml aggregate generated by the component back to the Aggregate field to use in an Update transaction. |
InvoicedAmount String |
The amount of this sales order line that has been invoiced. The amount should be formatted as a string in dollars. |
ItemId String |
Line item property: Reference to the kind of item. Line items represent goods or services bought in a QuickBooks transaction. Each line item is represented by a number of properties, each prefixed by Item (see the list of properties for individual components for details). Properties such as Quantity and Description are always present; some properties are found in only certain types of transactions. Item is a reference to a kind of item, predefined within QuickBooks. Generally items defined within QuickBooks have default values for Description, etc., and if only Item is set when adding a record to QuickBooks, the other properties will be set automatically. This component is used to create a single item. However, any InQB component may be set with an unlimited number of these items. For example:
Items may also be grouped into ItemGroups, using the LineItemGroups component. |
ItemName String |
Line item property: Reference to the kind of item. Line items represent goods or services bought in a QuickBooks transaction. Each line item is represented by a number of properties, each prefixed by Item (see the list of properties for individual components for details). Properties such as Quantity and Description are always present; some properties are found in only certain types of transactions. Item is a reference to a kind of item, predefined within QuickBooks. Generally items defined within QuickBooks have default values for Description, etc., and if only Item is set when adding a record to QuickBooks, the other properties will be set automatically. This component is used to create a single item. However, any InQB component may be set with an unlimited number of these items. For example:
Items may also be grouped into ItemGroups, using the LineItemGroups component. |
LineId String |
Identification number of the transaction line, used for Updates. If you need to add a new transaction line in a transaction Update request, you can do so by setting the LineId to -1. |
ManuallyClosed TiqbManuallyCloseds |
Indicates if the line item has been manually closed. If ManuallyClosed is mcManuallyClosed, the purchase order line has been closed, even if this item has not been received or its sale canceled. If all the purchase order lines are marked as closed, the purchase order itself is marked as closed as well. You cannot change ManuallyClosed to mcNotManuallyClosed after the purchase order line has been fully received. If set to mcNotSet the field is not sent in the request. Only applicable to Update transactions. |
Other1 String |
Standard QuickBooks Custom Field available for transaction line items. The Other1 and Other2 custom fields are available for immediate use: you don't need to enable these in the transaction template to be able to access them via SDK. (However, those Other1 and Other2 fields and their values are viewable and printable in QuickBooks only if the transaction template has these enabled!). QBXMLVersion 6.0 or higher is required to use this property. |
Other2 String |
Standard QuickBooks Custom Field available for transaction line items. The Other1 and Other2 custom fields are available for immediate use: you don't need to enable these in the transaction template to be able to access them via SDK. (However, those Other1 and Other2 fields and their values are viewable and printable in QuickBooks only if the transaction template has these enabled!). QBXMLVersion 6.0 or higher is required to use this property. |
PriceLevelId String |
Line Item property: Used to specify custom pricing for specific customers. Id for the PriceLevel selected for this transaction. If PriceLevelId and/or PriceLevelName are specified, then Amount will be calculated automatically and should not be specified. Note that PriceLevelId and PriceLevelName, OR Rate OR RatePercent may be specified. PriceLevelId and PriceLevelName are ONLY available for QBXMLVersions 4.0 and above. You can use price levels to specify custom pricing for specific customers. Once you create a price level for a customer, QuickBooks will automatically use the custom price in new invoices, sales receipts, sales orders or credit memos for that customer. You can override this automatic feature, however, when you create the invoices, sales receipts, etc.) The user can now specify a price level on line items in the following supported sales transactions: invoices, sales receipts, credit memos, and sales orders. Notice that the response data for the affected sales transaction does not list the price level that was used. The response simply lists the Rate, which was set using the price level. |
PriceLevelName String |
Line Item property: Specify custom pricing for specific customers. Id for the PriceLevel selected for this transaction. If PriceLevelId and/or PriceLevelName are specified, then Amount will be calculated automatically and should not be specified. Note that PriceLevelId and PriceLevelName, OR Rate OR RatePercent may be specified. PriceLevelId and PriceLevelName are ONLY available for QBXMLVersions 4.0 and above. You can use price levels to specify custom pricing for specific customers. Once you create a price level for a customer, QuickBooks will automatically use the custom price in new invoices, sales receipts, sales orders or credit memos for that customer. You can override this automatic feature, however, when you create the invoices, sales receipts, etc.) The user can now specify a price level on line items in the following supported sales transactions: invoices, sales receipts, credit memos, and sales orders. Notice that the response data for the affected sales transaction does not list the price level that was used. The response simply lists the Rate, which was set using the price level. |
Quantity String |
Line item property: Quantity of item or item group. The quantity of the Item specified in this line. If Quantity and only one of Cost, Rate, or Amount are specified, QuickBooks will automatically calculate the other. This property is a String type in order to allow setting fractional quantities. Setting this property with non-numeric data will cause an error. Correct usage of this property is shown below:
Leave this property blank and no quantity will be sent to QuickBooks. |
Rate String |
Unit rate of item. The unit rate charged for this item. If Amount is specified, then Rate will be calculated automatically and should not be specified. The amount should be formatted as a string in dollars. |
RatePercent String |
Line item property: A markup or discount percentage. If RatePercent is specified instead of Rate, then this line item represents a percentage markup or discount, to be applied to the previous Item or Item group. RatePercent should be formatted as a positive or negative integer; a positive value indicates a markup. Only one of RatePercent and Rate may be specified. If RatePercent is set, then Rate will be set to its default. |
TaxCodeId String |
Line item property: Sales tax information for this item. This is a reference to a sales tax code predefined within QuickBooks. By default, two standard TaxCodes exist: "TAX", or Taxable Sales, and "NON", or Non-Taxable Sales. The QuickBooks user may also define custom tax codes. Id/Name Reference Properties This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its Id (this property) or its full Name, for which a corresponding property is defined. Using the Id is recommended when feasible, as the Id is guaranteed to never change once defined. Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Name property to an empty string. |
TaxCodeName String |
Line item property: Sales tax information for this item. This is a reference to a sales tax code predefined within QuickBooks. By default, two standard TaxCodes exist: "TAX", or Taxable Sales, and "NON", or Non-Taxable Sales. The QuickBooks user may also define custom tax codes. Name/Id Reference Properties This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its full Name (this property) or its Id, for which a corresponding property is defined. If Name is used, it must contain the full name of the object referred to, as generated by QuickBooks. For hierarchically defined objects, such as Customers, this includes the names of parent objects, and the full name can be determined by reading the FullName special field. Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Id property to an empty string. |
UnitOfMeasure String |
Unit of measure describing the Quantity. In a transaction line item, the name of the unit of measure selected from within the item's available units. If the company file is enabled only for single unit of measure per item, this must be the base unit! This property is only available for QBXMLVersion 7.0 and higher. |

Config Settings (SalesOrder Component)
The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.SalesOrder Config Settings | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
AppendAfter: Appends an XML tag after the specified QBXML element.Write-only; Appends the specified text after the specified QBXML element (whether the QBXML element is present). This may be useful to extend the functionality of the component beyond what is provided. Example: Control1.Config("AppendAfter:ListID=<WeirdNewField>abc</WeirdNewField>") | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
AuthFlags:
Connection Flags (use for QuickBooks Simple Start).Since 2006, QuickBooks has allowed AuthFlags to be set before connecting to QuickBooks. By
default, the component can connect to Pro, Premier, and Enterprise editions of QuickBooks. However, because QuickBooks
Simple Start contains only a subset of the functionality that other desktop versions provide, Intuit does
not allow COM connection to Simple Start unless these AuthFlags explicitly indicate you wish to support it.
A list of allowable AuthFlags is provided below.
To specify support for multiple editions, OR together the values for each edition. NOTE: If the version of QuickBooks being used does not support AuthFlags, the contents of this config will be ignored. However, if QuickBooks does support this feature, setting "AuthFlags=1" (Support for Simple Start only) on a machine running QuickBooks 2013 Pro will result in an error message indicating that the Request Processor cannot be found. |

ExchangeRate:
Currency exchange rate for this invoice.This field is only supported for QBXMLVersion 8.0 and higher.
The exchange rate is the market price for which this currency can be exchanged for the currency used by the QuickBooks company file as the "home" currency. The exchange rate should be considered a snapshot of the rates in effect at the AsOfDate. You can update the exchange rate using the exchange rate property when you add a transaction. However, you need to obtain and supply the exchange rate. If you are using USD (United States Dollars) as the home currency and are connected to the Internet, you can download the current exchange rates for all active currencies automatically in the QuickBooks UI by selecting Lists->Currency->Activities->Download latest exchange rates. (Currently, you can't do this in the SDK.) Indicates the exchange rate for the transaction.Exchange Rate is a floating-point number stored with five digits after the decimal place.

IsToBeEmailed:
When true, if no email address is on file for the customer the transaction will fail.
If this is set to true, at runtime the customer referenced in this transaction will be checked for a valid email address. If there is no valid email address, the request will fail. If there is a valid email address currently in QuickBooks for the customer, and the request succeeds, the transaction will be added to QuickBook's list of forms to be emailed, possibly in a batch.
Notice that setting this field to true does not actually perform the emailing. Only the QuickBooks user can do that from within QuickBooks. This cannot be done from the SDK. Setting this field to false does not prevent the QuickBooks user from emailing the transaction later. It simply results in the transaction NOT being placed in the list of transactions to be emailed. This field is only available when QBXMLVersion is "6.0" or higher. |

PersonalDataPref:
Whether the connecting application will require access to personal data such as SSN or credit card information.This setting allows you to let the user know immediately whether your application requires access to personal data or not.
A list of available values is provided below.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
QBConnectionMode:
The mode of connection to QuickBooks.Specifies whether the integrated application logs in using single-user or multi-user mode.
The following values are permitted:
About Single-User and Multi-User Modes If the connection to QuickBooks is made in single-user mode, QuickBooks will give exclusive access to the connecting application. It will lock out all other integrated applications; if QuickBooks and the company file are not already open in single-user mode by the QuickBooks user, the user will be locked out as well. If the connection is made in multi-user mode, QuickBooks will allow all other integrated applications access. QuickBooks end users on other machines will also be allowed to access the file. However, if the application (rather than the end user) starts QuickBooks automatically, end users on the same machine will still be locked out. If cmDontCare is specified, an appropriate connection mode will be chosen automatically. If a company file is open in either single-user or multi-user mode, the integrated application will accept that connection mode. If no company file is open, QuickBooks will login automatically in multi-user mode. About Integrated and Automatic Login Note that your application's login to QuickBooks might be either automatic or interactive. Interactive login is used when QuickBooks is already open. Access will be shared between the integrated application and the QuickBooks end user, and if multi-user mode is specified, other applications and users will have access as well. When a connection is made, QuickBooks will show a dialog window to the user, and ask the user if he/she wants to permit the connection. Automatic login is used when QuickBooks is not already open. QuickBooks will be opened in the background, and will run until your application has finished its connection with QuickBooks. The QuickBooks user interface will not be displayed, and end-users on the same machine will be locked out. End-users on other machines, however, will be allowed access if multi-user mode is specified. By default integrated applications do not have permission to login automatically. The first time an application interacts with QuickBooks, it must do so interactively, with QuickBooks and the company file open. The QuickBooks end user may then grant automatic login permission through Edit Preferences - Integrated Applications in the QuickBooks user interface. Click on the name of the application and then "Properties", and you may allow the application to login automatically. For automatic login the CompanyFile must be specified. CompanyFile, ApplicationName, and other properties relating to the QuickBooks connection may be edited through QBConnectionString. |
