Quickbooks Import QBI

Hi Adam & fellow zenners,

I installed QBI recently and have been going through the manual and setting up the configuration. I thought I had everything matched and set up, but on the "create iif" page, the number of New Orders is always 0, even after a new order has been placed. So when I create an iif, of course the iif file that downloads is empty (0 kb file size). It seems to see the Products, New Products & Customers just fine---it's only the orders that aren't showing up.

Anyone have any ideas? There's no error message from either Zen Cart or Quickbooks, just no data to pass between them. For some reason, the orders aren't being seen by QBI.

Thanks!

Sarah :huh:

I had the same problem, try setting your configure in QBI to import orders any status or something like that....if you change the status or the status in configure doesn't match it won't recognize it.
HTH


anyone know the answers to my problems, I am really starting to think about not using qb and I really need to to make life easier.

I was finally able to test this mod with quick books the other day and I have some questions if anyone could help who has gotten this to work correctly. I downloaded the customers and imported them into quickbooks and it only imports the customers who have purchased something. I important orders but didn't come up with invoices or anything like that. Is there something I am missing. What I really want the mod for is to be able to transfer customers to my quickbooks so I don't have to type all the new information everytime I need to add a new customer and second I would love it to bring over the items they purchased the total and have like an invoice. Is this possible?

Does the most recent QBI update version also work with Zencart version 1.3.8?

What I was told, is that QBI only exports customers who have made a purchase. There is a setting down at the very bottom to tell QBI, whether or not to send the info as an Invoice & Payment or as a Sales Receipt. In the book, which he did a very thorough job of putting it together for us, discusses why you would go one way or the other. Trust me, if all of the mods had his thoroughness in instructions, we would all be asking way less questions !!

Yes.. I'm running 1.38a and it runs fine.

My client has QuickBooks Premiere Edition 2006.
Does this leave them in the dust for using QBI,
or will QBI work with their version?

Will they need to upgrade?

Thanks in advance.

I know it has been a long time since this post but just got time to get back at it. When you said in the book which book are you talking about?

Sorry, I just got to this subscribtion to see what was new.. My turn I see :smile: In Adam's ZIp file, there is the gamut of files that need to be placed throughout -AND- he has a very extensive manual that walks you through step by step.. If you follow it, you will succeed installing it and matching the files to Quickbooks.

As an FYI, I'm using ZC 1.3.8 + QBI 3.21b + Quickbooks Pro 2007.

I scanned through the manuals For You and found that this is preported to work all versions from Quickbooks Pro 2004-2007 assuredly, maybe earlier than that, but untested.
