VendorCredit Module
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
A VendorCredit indicates that the QuickBooks company is owed money by a VENDOR . A VendorCredit is the opposite of a BILL .
Syntax
InQB.Vendorcredit
Remarks
The VendorCredit class represents a credit received from a Vendor. When a credit is added, the amount of the credit is automatically entered into the Accounts Payable register.
Required Fields (Add): Vendor*, TransactionDate, Items or Expenses
Supported Methods: Add, Get (Id), Cancel, Delete
Example
VendorCredit1.VendorName = "ACME Inc." '*
VendorCredit1.TransactionDate = "1/17/03"
VendorCredit1.ItemCount = 1
VendorCredit1.ItemName(0) = "ACME Widget X" '*
VendorCredit1.ItemAmount(0) = "299.95"
VendorCredit1.ExpenseCount = 1
VendorCredit1.ExpenseAccountName(0) = "Shipping" '*
VendorCredit1.ExpenseAmount(0) = "12.00"
VendorCredit1.Add()
'*: Item must already exist in QuickBooks.
The operation of the VendorCredit class is nearly identical to that of the
Bill Class. The only difference is that VendorCredit lacks the DueDate
and Terms properties of Bill.
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 purchase of goods or services. Line items may be added by first setting ItemCount. Then, for each line set the Item ID (or Name), Cost, Quantity, Description, Class, Customer, and Amount.
Note: For advanced users, the entire XML item structure may be set and retrieved through the Item's Aggregate property. However, it is up to the developer to ensure that this aggregate is formatted correctly.
Expense Lines: Expense lines are used to track portions of the total amount to expense accounts. To add expense lines to the transaction, first set ExpenseCount. This will initialize the Expenses array. Each expense will be tracked to the account specified in ExpenseAccount. The ExpenseAmount should also be specified for each expense; optionally, the ExpenseClass, ExpenseCustomer, and ExpenseMemo properties may be set as well.
The VendorCredit class supports a variety of other operations as well. The class's Get, Cancel, and Delete methods may be used to retrieve, cancel, and delete VendorCredits, respectively. The ObjSearch Class may be used to search for VendorCredits in the QuickBooks database.

public var qbConnectionString: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBConnectionString,setter=setQBConnectionString:) NSString* QBConnectionString; - (NSString*)QBConnectionString; - (void)setQBConnectionString :(NSString*)newQBConnectionString;
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 class 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 class'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 class 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 class . |
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 class . |
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 class binds. |
UseRDS | Whether to connect using Remote Data Sharing (RDS). If set to True, the class 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. |
QBRequestAggregate Property (VendorCredit Module)
The request aggregate.
Syntax
public var qbRequestAggregate: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBRequestAggregate,setter=setQBRequestAggregate:) NSString* QBRequestAggregate; - (NSString*)QBRequestAggregate; - (void)setQBRequestAggregate :(NSString*)newQBRequestAggregate;
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 class to generate requests to be sent to QuickBooks Web Connector.
QBRequestId Property (VendorCredit Module)
The Id of the next message to be sent to QuickBooks.
Syntax
public var qbRequestId: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBRequestId,setter=setQBRequestId:) NSString* QBRequestId; - (NSString*)QBRequestId; - (void)setQBRequestId :(NSString*)newQBRequestId;
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.
QBRequestMode Property (VendorCredit Module)
Defines whether the request is made online or stored offline.
Syntax
public var qbRequestMode: VendorcreditQBRequestModes { get {...} set {...} }
public enum VendorcreditQBRequestModes: Int32 { case rmOnline = 0 case rmOffline = 1 }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBRequestMode,setter=setQBRequestMode:) int QBRequestMode; - (int)QBRequestMode; - (void)setQBRequestMode :(int)newQBRequestMode;
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property defines the behavior of the class 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 (VendorCredit Module)
The last QBXML response aggregate received from QuickBooks.
Syntax
public var qbResponseAggregate: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBResponseAggregate,setter=setQBResponseAggregate:) NSString* QBResponseAggregate; - (NSString*)QBResponseAggregate; - (void)setQBResponseAggregate :(NSString*)newQBResponseAggregate;
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 class will parse the response as if it had been received directly from QuickBooks and the applicable properties will be updated.
QBXMLVersion Property (VendorCredit Module)
The version of QBXML used in the outgoing message.
Syntax
public var qbxmlVersion: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=QBXMLVersion,setter=setQBXMLVersion:) NSString* QBXMLVersion; - (NSString*)QBXMLVersion; - (void)setQBXMLVersion :(NSString*)newQBXMLVersion;
Default Value
"3.0"
Remarks
The version of QBXML used in the outgoing message. Except as noted in the documentation, a value of "1.1" will suffice for all requests, and for all versions of QuickBooks which support integrated applications.
With each release of QuickBooks since 2002, a corresponding version of the QuickBooks SDK has also been released: 1.0 for QuickBooks 2002, 2.0 for QuickBooks 2003, 3.0 for QuickBooks 2004, etc., up to 8.0 for QuickBooks 2009. In addition, each release of QuickBooks continues to support all earlier versions of the SDK, meaning that requests using version 1.1 of the QuickBooks SDK are supported by all versions of QuickBooks. However, new requests and newer fields in existing requests are only supported in later versions of the QuickBooks SDK. As such, it is recommended that you set the QBXMLVersion property to correspond to the version of QuickBooks you are interacting with. These values are:
QuickBooks 2002 | 1.0, 1.1 |
QuickBooks 2003 | 2.0 |
QuickBooks 2004 | 3.0 |
QuickBooks 2005 | 4.0, 4.1 |

An alphanumerical identifier generated by the server.
Syntax
public var refId: String { get {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readonly,assign,getter=refId) NSString* refId; - (NSString*)refId;
Default Value
""
Remarks
An Id is an alphanumerical identifier assigned by the server whenever an object is added to QuickBooks. It is guaranteed to be unique across all objects of the same type.
This property is read-only.
RefNumber Property (VendorCredit Module)
Reference number for the transaction.
Syntax
public var refNumber: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=refNumber,setter=setRefNumber:) NSString* refNumber; - (NSString*)refNumber; - (void)setRefNumber :(NSString*)newRefNumber;
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.
TransactionDate Property (VendorCredit Module)
Date of transaction.
Syntax
public var transactionDate: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=transactionDate,setter=setTransactionDate:) NSString* transactionDate; - (NSString*)transactionDate; - (void)setTransactionDate :(NSString*)newTransactionDate;
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.
VendorId Property (VendorCredit Module)
Reference to the vendor for this transaction.
Syntax
public var vendorId: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=vendorId,setter=setVendorId:) NSString* vendorId; - (NSString*)vendorId; - (void)setVendorId :(NSString*)newVendorId;
Default Value
""
Remarks
The Vendor property refers to the Vendor from whom the goods or services were purchased.
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.
Either VendorId or VendorName is required.
VendorName Property (VendorCredit Module)
Reference to the vendor for this transaction.
Syntax
public var vendorName: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=vendorName,setter=setVendorName:) NSString* vendorName; - (NSString*)vendorName; - (void)setVendorName :(NSString*)newVendorName;
Default Value
""
Remarks
The Vendor property refers to the Vendor from whom the goods or services were purchased.
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.
Either VendorId or VendorName is required.
Add Method (VendorCredit Module)
Adds the record into QuickBooks.
Syntax
public func add() throws -> Void
- (void)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 (VendorCredit Module)
Cancels (voids) the transaction.
Syntax
public func cancel() throws -> Void
- (void)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 class 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 (VendorCredit Module)
Checks whether or not the specified request was processed by QuickBooks.
Syntax
- (NSString*)checkRequestStatus:(NSString*)requestId;
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 (VendorCredit Module)
Closes a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Syntax
public func closeQBConnection() throws -> Void
- (void)closeQBConnection;
Remarks
Invoking CloseQBConnection closes the QuickBooks connection specified in QBConnectionString. After the connection has been closed, the class 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 (VendorCredit Module)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
- (NSString*)config:(NSString*)configurationString;
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, 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 (VendorCredit Module)
Deletes the record from QuickBooks.
Syntax
public func delete_() throws -> Void
- (void)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 (VendorCredit Module)
Gets a single record from QuickBooks.
Syntax
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 class 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 class, 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 class may be used.
GetCustomField Method (VendorCredit Module)
Gets a custom field value from QuickBooks.
Syntax
- (NSString*)getCustomField:(NSString*)fieldName;
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 (VendorCredit Module)
Imports a QBXML response aggregate.
Syntax
Remarks
This method imports a QBXML response aggregate. When called with a QBXML aggregate, such as a response from ObjSearch or QBWCServer the class will parse the response as if it had been received directly from QuickBooks and the applicable properties will be updated.
OpenQBConnection Method (VendorCredit Module)
Opens a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Syntax
public func openQBConnection() throws -> Void
- (void)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 class 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 (VendorCredit Module)
Resets all properties to their defaults.
Syntax
public func reset() throws -> Void
- (void)reset;
Remarks
This method resets the values of all properties (and all special fields) to their defaults.
After calling this method, the class may be reused as if it were newly created.
SetCustomField Method (VendorCredit Module)
Sets a custom field value within QuickBooks.
Syntax
- (void)setCustomField:(NSString*)fieldName :(NSString*)fieldValue;
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 (VendorCredit Module)
Updates the sales order in QuickBooks.
Syntax
public func update() throws -> Void
- (void)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 (VendorCredit Module)
Information about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
- (void)onError:(int)errorCode :(NSString*)description;
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 (VendorCredit Module)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Syntax
func onSSLServerAuthentication(certEncoded: Data, certSubject: String, certIssuer: String, status: String, accept: inout Bool)
- (void)onSSLServerAuthentication:(NSData*)certEncoded :(NSString*)certSubject :(NSString*)certIssuer :(NSString*)status :(int*)accept;
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 (VendorCredit Module)
Shows the progress of the secure connection.
Syntax
func onSSLStatus(message: String)
- (void)onSSLStatus:(NSString*)message;
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Status Event (VendorCredit Module)
Shows the progress of the QuickBooks connection.
Syntax
func onStatus(message: String)
- (void)onStatus:(NSString*)message;
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Warning Event (VendorCredit Module)
Fired when a warning occurs.
Syntax
- (void)onWarning:(int)code :(NSString*)description;
Remarks
The Warning event is fired when the class has produced, or will produce, possibly unexpected results.
Warnings may be generated by QuickBooks or the class. 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.

StandardItem Type
A single standard line item.
Remarks
This type of line item is used by the Bill, CCCharge, CCCredit, Check, VendorCredit, and ItemReceipt classs.
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 property will re-generate the line item XML with the new data. If you set the other line item properties and then query the , 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 class 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 field with your own custom XML, all of this will be taken care of you automatically by the class. |
amount String |
Line item property: the total amount of this item. This property represents the total amount of a transaction line. If , and/or are specified the will be automatically computed by QuickBooks. Whether or is used will depend on the transaction type. is available for CreditMemo, Estimate, Invoice, PurchaseOrder, SalesOrder, and SalesReceipt transactions while is available for Bill, CCCharge, CCCredit, Check, ItemReceipt, and VendorCredit transactions. The amount should be formatted as a string in dollars. |

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. |
cost String |
Line item property: Unit cost for item. The unit cost for this item. If is specified, then will be calculated automatically and should not be specified. The amount should be formatted as a string in dollars. |
customerId String |
Line item property: A reference to customer for whom the item was ordered. A reference to a Customer for whom this item was ordered. If this property is set, the expense will be set as billable to the Customer referenced. 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. |

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. |
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 , , and ), 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 property to the LineItemGroups class. You may use the LineItemGroups class to view or change the contents of the line items, and then pass the xml aggregate generated by the class back to the field to use in an Update transaction. |

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 classs for details). Properties such as and 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 , etc., and if only Item is set when adding a record to QuickBooks, the other properties will be set automatically. This class is used to create a single item. However, any InQB class may be set with an unlimited number of these items. For example:
Items may also be grouped into ItemGroups, using the LineItemGroups class. |

Generally items defined within QuickBooks have default values for , etc., and if only Item is set when adding a record to QuickBooks, the other properties will be set automatically. This class is used to create a single item. However, any InQB class may be set with an unlimited number of these items. For example:
Items may also be grouped into ItemGroups, using the LineItemGroups class. |
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 to -1. |
overrideAccountId String |
An account which will override the default account for the line item. QBXMLVersion must be 2.0 or higher to use this configuration setting. |
overrideAccountName String |
An account which will override the default account for the line item. QBXMLVersion must be 2.0 or higher to use this configuration setting. |
quantity String |
Line item property: Quantity of item or item group. The quantity of the Item specified in this line. If and only one of , , or 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. |
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 . 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 (VendorCredit Module)
The class 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 class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.VendorCredit 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 class 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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
EditSequence: An identifier for this copy of the object.Indicates the state of an object when doing an Update. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
EnforceMaxLength: Indicates whether to enforce max lengths for QB Fields.If you change this setting to False, the class will no longer check (or error) when the length of a property exceeds the maximum length specified in the QuickBooks SDK. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
ExchangeRate:
Indicates the exchange rate for the transaction.Exchange Rate is a floating-point number stored with five digits after the decimal place.
The exchange rate is multiplied by the foreign currency amount to get the home currency amount; that is,
ExchangeRate x (foreign currency amount) = (home currency amount). (The foreign currency and home currency are set in the QuickBooks application) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
ExpenseLineAggregate[index]:
Contains the XML aggregate of the expense line item.If the line item has not been modified since receiving a response
from QuickBooks, the exact ExpenseLineRet aggregate that QuickBooks
returned will be contained in this XML aggregate. However, if you
have made changes to the ExpenseLine fields, the Aggregate
field will re-generate the line item XML with the new data.
If you set the other line item fields and then query the Aggregate, a ExpenseLineRet aggregate will be generated from the currently set fields. You may set this field with raw xml. So long as you do not modify any other fields (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 field. When setting this field 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, you must ensure the outer tags are "ExpenseLineAdd". If modifying, the outer tags must be "ExpenseLineMod". 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. |

GetSupportedVersions: Returns a list of QBXMLVersions that are supported by QuickBooks.If QuickBooks is installed on the system, this setting will retrieve a list of all supported QBXMLVersions that may be used for sending transactions to QuickBooks. While GetHighestVersion config returns only the highest QBXMLVersion supported, this config returns ALL supported QBXMLVersions. The list is delimited with '\n' (linefeed) characters. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. |

QBOpenCompanyFile:
The file currently open in QuickBooks.The name of the file currently open in QuickBooks, specified completely with
the path. This field is read-only.
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 class may interact exclusively with the open file. |
