 [quote user="salson"] Also, if I only want Method to sync in one direction (ie end users can not make changes that affect Quickbooks) what is the best way to do this? [/quote]   I neglected to answer your question above: Although you can't prevent Method from "syncing" over with QuickBooks, as that ...

Are you guys planning on releasing a 64-bit version of the sync engine any time soon? I feel like the sync is not happening fast enough when performing large updates in the 10's or 100's of thousands record-wise. Yes, I am a speed freak. Thoughts? EDIT: Maybe a stupid question, but are do you guys have a version of the sync engine that ...

Inder, thanks for your reply. The speed of the computer is maxed out so I guess we're at the mercy of the SDK at this point. I was only hoping that the SDK might function faster in a server environment. Can you comment on this? Were you directly involved with the development of the sync engine or would someone else be able to offer some ...

Does Method sync in real time, or is it periodic sync?    For example I have my Method sync option set to every 20 minutes.  Other than manually running the sync, does Method and QB on my PC sync automatically only once every 20 minutes?  I've noticed some transactions sync right away even ...

 Hi Dave, We've looked into this and we made some changes to make custom fields more useable. Just to give you a technical bit of insight from the back end side of things: 1. QB does not provide us with a unique identifier for custom fields.  It just gives us a name and a value.  So it is very hard to maintain values in ...

Modifying the JournalEntryLine would NOT send the tranaction to QuickBooks.   Modifying the JournalEntry WOULD send the transaction to QuickBooks. After you are finished editing all your JournalEntryLine records, call the SendToDesktop action for the JournalEntry and that will tell Method "hey I'm doing making all the modifications ...

Hi scott2X, Just so I have a better understanding of the issue, can you outline a use case where this would come up?  What kind of errors are being produced and where?  Do these errors show up in resolve conflicts? There is an option to "Wait for Sync Approval".  When this is checked, the transaction will not post to ...

 Hi Jim, 1. The “flickering” is something that you would typically see if there are many transactions that haven’t been synched yet, or more likely when there is a Full Sync going.  The Full Sync should only happen once a day, in the middle of the night, so it shouldn’t be doing this.  However, if there ...

Dear Haident, Thank you for your suggestion to have a two way synchronization. Although this feature will not be implemented in current version of Outlook Plugin, it will be one of the features we'll review for version 3.0. 1.      In Outlook press the "New Mail Message" ...

Hi Karen, Any other users who connect to that QuickBooks file and use Method will need the Method Integration Engine installed on their PC's so that changes made in QuickBooks sync automatically to the web. Check out our Initial Setup Guide for more information. - Ashur
