Method Community

Good morning, since I do not want to go to the expense of recreating my method account to work with Quickbooks online , we are looking at using a third party hosting company that will host our Quickbooks database. So, my question is, how will this affect your sync engine running in the background? Is your sync engine capable of connecting to our ...

In that case you should create your template based off the Contacts table and select Activity.ContactsRef as a Detail Table. You'll then be able to utilize fields in both the Contacts and Activity tables. *Note: In order to utilize the Activity fields correctly you'll need to expand the Contacts table data set on the right side of ...

Hi, I am trying to use the API to create QB Estimates from the project management system I wrote for my client. I want to link my new Estimate to an existing Customer record, but I can't figure out how to do it. The best solution I have so far is to fill in the Estimate.Customer field with the FullName from the Customer I want to link to the ...

Is there any way of setting a filter on a grid depending on an action result retrieved on screen load? I'm looking to change grid filters when a particular screen is opened from different tabs and tab links. Edit: just found this in the grid actions under set filter view.

Anyone calling the Method API from javascript (jquery)? Examples?

thanks for the response. Issue is I need to pull fields from the contact table as well, not just the activity table. I know the tables are linked but I am just unsure how to create a report using contact and activity tables. thanks

Hey Jerry, You can do this by editing the Estimate template using our Report Designer tool. You'll need to be running in a Windows environment in order to download and install this tool. You'll just need to delete the EstimateLine.SalesTaxCode field. Hope this helps! - Ashur

On some of our estimates, we have noticed the phrase Non-Tax in the Datial portion of the Total column next to the prices per line item.  This appears on the printed estimates we send to customers.  We need to remove the wording "Non-Tax" in the Total column.

Thanks Adam, This customer does not show in my resolve conflicts, I tried what you said to no avail. Also, the customer does exist in QB and to my knowledge we have never tried to delete this customer from QB or from Method. Is there anything else I can do to try and get Method to re-add this customer or something of the like?

We celebrated too soon... I was able to change the template for the Estimates in order to display the Sales Rep's FullName, and it worked briefly, but now that part of the template has reverted back to displaying Estimate.SalesRep Instead of FullName. I am making sure to save before closing the report designer, but I cannot get it to ...
