Quickbooks Import QBI

[JackQBTeK]

Our Shopping Cart eIntegrator for QuickBooks has been running for years. It has extreme flexibility to meet your business needs. Supports all recent versions expect Simple Start editions including QB Online and QuickBooks Point of Sale (QBPOS). We ourselves are using ZenCart 1.5.

Hi,

I finally figured out what is happening here. If the "Orders.Orders_Status" field is not = 1 then the QBI add-on won't pull the record as being a new order.

The Order Status does not necessarily have to be =1. It can be whatever you select in the QBI configuration.
Thanks,
Adam

Hi there,
new to the zen cart community, had a couple of questions for anyone who may be able to help.
first, how does the QBI work for you? and second, will it support Quickbboks Premier 2013?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'd like to be able to import my inventory items from Quickbooks Pro 2013 into ZenCart, and then my ZenCart orders back to quickbooks (thus decrementing the inventory appropriately) -now THAT is integration.

In simple terms, this "plugin" does not work with Zen Cart 1.50 or above. I have attempted "everything known to man" and re-read EVERY posting..., and there is no response or solution. (other than to PURCHASE the authors new "plugin" for $175.00).

Even though Zen Cart is a highly technical program to get "up and running"..., I have used Zen Cart for nearly five years. (however, since the update..., I am now, unfortunately, committed to using it)

With that said, I STRONGLY regret updating to 1.50! Most of the "bells and whistles" are no longer available or supported. I am VERY displeased with this new release and the lack of functioning "plugins". Especially, when you take away one of the main functions that every shopping cart program should have, (which I believe is to have the ability to actually download your customer and order information into a format in which your accounting program can actully utilize)!!!! Because, if you can't download this info into a usable format..., YOU HAVE TO COPY EVERYTHING INTO YOUR ACCOUNTING PROGRAM BY HAND!


This is a great program, with a multitude of knowlegable authors. All of whom deserve credit and thanks. But overall, If I had to do this over again..., I would have paid for a FUNCTIONING shopping cart.

Daniel,

The free version of QBI is quite old, I don't guarantee its functionality, and I only provide minimal support for it. That being said, there is nothing about ZC 1.5 that presents any compatibility issue. In fact, there were no changes made to the paid version of QBI to accommodate the move from ZC 1.39 to ZC 1.5 and it works perfectly with it.

QBI uses no ZC code whatsoever and interacts directly with the ZC MySQL database (the only changes made in ZC during installation are to place a link to QBI in the admin menu). So, it is immune to changes in ZC code, and only affected by changes in the ZC database structure, of which there were none of importance that affected QBI.

The issues you may run into have to do with deprecated PHP functions and SQL commands, both of which I have addressed in a recent post. Additionally, if you created a new database for your ZC 1.5 installation, you will likely need to update the QBI config file to connect to it.

I don't know what the problem is that you are experiencing, but I can pretty much be sure that it is not due to any difference between ZC 1.39 and 1.5. I suggest that you make the PHP and MySQL fixes in QBI if needed (depending on the PHP and MySQL versions on your server), check the database connection login details in the QBI config, and check your server log for any PHP errors when you try to run QBI.

Thanks,
Adam

I just installed this on 1.5 cart - used the page admin registration (BOX_CUSTOMERS_QBI for both the first 2 boxes, FILENAME_QBI for filename. Put it under tools with sort of 20). It shows up and installs. I have not and will not be the one configuring it so I may eventually hear back that something doesn't work but it looks good at first glance.

I have an installation of 1.51 and am trying to install QBI. After following the installation procedures, when I login to zen-cart admin there is no link for the installation module in customers, therefore I am unable to complete installation.
After reading through numerous pages of this blog the only thing I am able to find addressing this issue is back in Jan 2010 stating that qbi_customers_dhtml.php should be in extra_boxes rather than boxes. I checked and the version I downloaded already has this change made so that is not my issue.

My question now is: will QBI work with version 1.51 or does anyone know what I can do to make it work?

OK I followed the instructions posted by delia for Admin Page Registration and was able to get to the database installation page (I placed it in "customers" rather than tools). I ran this step and it said that the installation was successful, however when I follow the instructions to configure QBI it takes me back to the install page /qbi_install.php?db_ver=0&qbi_vers=3.21
There is no option to configure.
