Required Fields (Add): QBName. Some ListTypes will have additional required fields.
Supported Methods: Add, Get (Id), Cancel, Delete. Update is supported for SalesRep ItemTypes.
List Items supported:
Class | Classes can be used to separate transactions into meaningful categories (for example, transactions could be classified according to department, business location, or type of work). In QuickBooks, class tracking is off by default. |
CustomerType | Customer types allow business owners to categorize customers in ways that are meaningful for their businesses. For example, a customer type might indicate which industry a customer represents, or which part of the country a customer is in. |
JobType | Job type can be used to separate jobs into any categories that are meaningful to the business. |
PaymentMethod | A customer's payment method, for example, cash, check, or Master Card. |
PayrollItemWage | Each payroll wage item describes and names a payment scheme, for example, Regular Pay or Overtime Pay. Additional required fields: PayrollWageType and either PayrollAccountId or PayrollAccountName. |
SalesTaxCode | Each item on a sales form is assigned a sales-tax code that indicates whether the item is taxable or non-taxable, and why. Additional required field: IsTaxable. |
SalesRep | A sales representative must be on the Employee, Vendor, or Other Names list within QuickBooks. Sales representative's names and initials appear on the Rep drop-down list on QuickBooks sales forms. A SalesRepEntity refers to a person on the SalesRep list. Additional required field: SalesRepEntityName or SalesRepEntityId. |
VendorType | Vendor types allow business owners to categorize vendors in ways that are meaningful for their businesses. For example, a vendor type might indicate which industry a vendor represents, or which part of the country a vendor is in. |

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 fails with an error. |
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 fails with an error. |
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. |
Data Type
String
QBName Property (InQB_QBLists Class)
Name of the object.

Object Oriented Interface
public function getQBRequestId(); public function setQBRequestId($value);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_get($res, 12 ); inqb_qblists_set($res, 12, $value );
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.
Data Type

CheckRequestStatus Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Checks whether or not the specified request was processed by QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doCheckRequestStatus($requestid);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_checkrequeststatus($res, $requestid);
Remarks
This method allows the user to determine whether a previous request was successfully processed by QuickBooks. Ordinarily QuickBooks either processes requests successfully or returns an error, but in the event of a power outage or other system failure, QuickBooks might or might not have time to process a request before issuing a response.
QuickBooks stores internally a list of QBRequestIds for which it has processed a request, and updated its internal state accordingly. Use of this method allows the user to query the list for any RequestId whose value is known.
The method returns a string corresponding to the result of the query. If the request was processed successfully, an empty string ("") will be returned. If the request was not processed, the string "Request not processed." will be returned. If the request was processed but an error occurred, a string containing the error code and a description will be returned; for example, "801: A QuickBooks internal error has occurred."
See QBRequestId for more information on error recovery.
CloseQBConnection Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Closes a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doCloseQBConnection();
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_closeqbconnection($res);
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 (InQB_QBLists Class)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doConfig($configurationstring);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_config($res, $configurationstring);
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Delete Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Deletes the record from QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doDelete();
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_delete($res);
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 (InQB_QBLists Class)
Gets a single record from QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doGet($id);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_get($res, $id);
Remarks
Get may be used to retrieve a single object from QuickBooks, based on its RefId. When the method is called, a search will be initiated for the requested object. If it is found, all properties of the class will be set to the information retrieved from QuickBooks. The QBResponseAggregate property will also be set to the entire QBXML aggregate received from QuickBooks.
The RefId of any class, or the Id of any reference property, may be used for the parameter. So for example, the following pseudocode would get customer information for a Customer listed on an Invoice:
Customer.Get( Invoice.CustomerId )
The GetByName method, present only in entity objects (Customer, Vendor, and Employee) and QBObject, may be used to get an object based on its Name. To retrieve multiple objects, to retrieve transaction objects whose RefId is not known, or to perform more advanced searches the ObjSearch class may be used.
GetByName Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Gets a single record from QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doGetByName($fullname);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_getbyname($res, $fullname);
Remarks
GetByName may be used to retrieve a single object from QuickBooks, based on its full Name. For Employee and Vendor objects, and for most Customer objects, the full name is given by the Name (CustomerName, VendorName, or EmployeeName property. For Customer objects that represent jobs or sub-customers, the full name will include the parent objects' name(s), and is given by the FullName special field. When the method is called, a search will be initiated for the requested object. If it is found, all properties of the class will be set to the information retrieved from QuickBooks. The QBResponseAggregate property will also be set to the entire QBXML aggregate received from QuickBooks.
The full name of any class may be used for the parameter. So, for example, the following pseudocode would get customer information for a Customer listed on an Invoice:
Customer.GetByName( Invoice.CustomerName )
The GetByName method, present only in entity objects (Customer, Vendor, and Employee) and QBObject, may be used to get an object based on its Name. To retrieve multiple objects, to retrieve transaction objects whose name is not known, or to perform more advanced searches the ObjSearch class may be used.
GetCustomField Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Gets a custom field value from QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doGetCustomField($fieldname);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_getcustomfield($res, $fieldname);
Remarks
This method will get the value of a custom field, which has been defined by the user from within the QuickBooks UI.
To read the values of custom fields, be sure to set QBXMLVersion to at least "2.0" when retrieving data from QuickBooks. Then, QuickBooks will return custom field information, and it will be accessible through this method.
You may also invoke Config to read the value of custom fields. However, to set the value of custom fields you must set QBXMLVersion to at least "3.0" and invoke SetCustomField.
ImportQBXML Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Imports a QBXML response aggregate.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doImportQBXML($xmldata);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_importqbxml($res, $xmldata);
Remarks
This method imports a QBXML response aggregate. When called with a QBXML aggregate, such as a response from ObjSearch or QBWCServer the class will parse the response as if it had been received directly from QuickBooks and the applicable properties will be updated.
OpenQBConnection Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Opens a persistent connection to QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doOpenQBConnection();
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_openqbconnection($res);
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 (InQB_QBLists Class)
Resets all properties to their defaults.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doReset();
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_reset($res);
Remarks
This method resets the values of all properties (and all special fields) to their defaults.
After calling this method, the class may be reused as if it were newly created.
SetCustomField Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Sets a custom field value within QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doSetCustomField($fieldname, $fieldvalue);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_setcustomfield($res, $fieldname, $fieldvalue);
Remarks
This method requires QuickBooks 2004 or above, with QBXMLVersion set to at least "3.0".
This method will immediately set the value of a QuickBooks custom field, which has been defined by the user from within the QuickBooks UI. Before calling this method, the preceding operation must retrieve the object from QuickBooks, using Get, ObjSearch, etc. Then, you may use SetCustomField to set custom field values (the fields will be modified or added, as appropriate).
Note that invoking this method will create a connection to QuickBooks if one is not already in place.
Update Method (InQB_QBLists Class)
Updates the entity object in QuickBooks.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doUpdate();
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_do_update($res);
Remarks
This method is used to update entity (Customer, Vendor, and Employee) records in QuickBooks.
When the method is called, an Update request will be submitted to QuickBooks. The object represented by RefId 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.
One condition must be met for an Update operation to succeed: QuickBooks checks a property called EditSequence. EditSequence is similar to RefId, but is changed every time the object is changed. When an Updateoperation is submitted, the server compares EditSequence with its own EditSequence for the object. If they match, this means that the client program has the latest copy of the object, and the Update operation is permitted. If they don't match, an error will be returned.
If this object represents a value returned from QuickBooks (i.e., a Get or Add call has been made, or the QBResponseAggregate property has been set), the EditSequence will be automatically set. Otherwise this value may be accessed through Config.
Error Event (InQB_QBLists Class)
Information about errors during data delivery.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireError($param);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_register_callback($res, 1, array($this, 'fireError'));
Parameter List
'errorcode'
'description'
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.
ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
SSLServerAuthentication Event (InQB_QBLists Class)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireSSLServerAuthentication($param);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_register_callback($res, 2, array($this, 'fireSSLServerAuthentication'));
Parameter List
'certencoded'
'certsubject'
'certissuer'
'status'
'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 (InQB_QBLists Class)
Shows the progress of the secure connection.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireSSLStatus($param);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_register_callback($res, 3, array($this, 'fireSSLStatus'));
Parameter List
'message'
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Status Event (InQB_QBLists Class)
Shows the progress of the QuickBooks connection.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireStatus($param);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_register_callback($res, 4, array($this, 'fireStatus'));
Parameter List
'message'
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Warning Event (InQB_QBLists Class)
Fired when a warning occurs.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireWarning($param);
Procedural Interface
inqb_qblists_register_callback($res, 5, array($this, 'fireWarning'));
Parameter List
'code'
'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.
Config Settings (QBLists Class)
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.QBLists 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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
DueNextMonthDays: Defers payment until next month if bill issued within this many days of the due date.This setting is used for the ltStandardTerms and ltDateDrivenTerms ListType. This setting handles cases when an invoice or bill is issued close to its due date. If the invoice or bill is issued within this many days of the due date, payment is not due until the following month. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
FullName: The name of the account.FullName (along with ListID) is a way to identify a list object. FullName consists of the name of the Object indicated by ListType, including any ancestors. In other words, the FullName is the name prefixed by the names of each ancestor. For example: "Jones:Kitchen:Cabinets". FullName values are not case-sensitive. If this setting returns a value different from QBName (containing one or more parents), then this is the version of the name that should be used in Get operations. This setting is read-only. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
GetHighestVersion: Highest QBXMLVersion supported by the installed instance of QuickBooks.If QuickBooks is installed on the system, this setting will retrieve the highest QBXMLVersion that may be used for sending transactions to QuickBooks. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
GetRequestProcessorDLLVersion: Returns the version of the QB Request Processor that is installed on your system. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
IsActive: Indicates whether the object is currently enabled for use by QuickBooks.The default value is true. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
IsReadOnly: This causes the QuickBooks authorization dialog to display text informing the user that its access will be read-only.The default value is false. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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.
The default value is pdpOptional. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
QBFileStatus:
The status of the company file as it pertains to accepting connections.This setting may be queried before attempting to connect to QuickBooks to determine the current company file status. When
queried the class will attempt to determine whether a subsequent connection using the provided QBConnectionString
value would succeed. Possible return values are:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SendRawXML: Sends specified XML to quickbooks without modification.Available for write only. Immediately sends the specified XML over the current or default QuickBooks connection (as specified elsewhere), and returns the QBXML response. Syntax: Control1.Config("SendRawXML=<?xml version="1.0" ?>...") | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SSLAcceptServerCert:
The SSL certificate being used by the QuickBooks Gateway (aka Remote Connector).
The Base-64 encoded certificate being used by the Remote Connector (you may get this
certificate from the Remote Connector by going to the Security tab, and clicking Export.)
This is only necessary if using a self-signed certificate, or any other certificate that has not been signed by a Certificate Authority (CA) trusted by the system. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SSLAcceptServerCertFile:
The SSL certificate file being used by the QuickBooks Gateway (aka Remote Connector).
If your public key certificate is stored in a file, you may set this configuration setting
to the full path of the certificate, and it will be immediately read from disk and stored in
SSLAcceptServerCert. Equivalent to setting SSLAcceptServerCert to file contents.
Reading the value of this setting will return an empty string. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
StopOnError: Specifies how QuickBooks is to proceed if an error occurs in processing of the current request. If StopOnError is True (default), QuickBooks will stop processing when an error occurs. Requests that have already been processed will not be rolled back. An error is returned for the operation that caused the error condition. If StopOnError is False, QuickBooks will continue processing the remaining requests if an error occurs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Sublevel: The number of ancestors this Account has.This setting is read-only. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
MaskSensitive:
Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.
This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
ProcessIdleEvents: Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SelectWaitMillis: The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.If there are no events to process when DoEvents is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:
Tells the class whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.
When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.
Setting this setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries. On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default. To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section. |
