&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:1.38;white-space:pre-wrap;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;"&gt;This week was the first new production deployment of Method&amp;#39;s QuickBooks Desktop sync engine since we moved our environment to Amazon Web Services.&amp;nbsp; While all our tests passed, differences between configurations in the test environment from the production environments led to a failed deployment and rollback. This deployment affected QuickBooks Desktop sync and some customers who were customizing screens and modifying tables during the depl&lt;span id="mce_0_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;o&lt;/span&gt;yment. All is&lt;span id="mce_1_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;s&lt;/span&gt;ues have been resolved. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
