It's probably a UTC timing problem.  Since the data is on a web server which can be accessed and updated by web browsers from throughout the world, all times are stored on the Method server in UTC, which at this time of year is 5 hours ahead for someone in an Eastern time zone, and 6 hours ahead for someone in the ...

Hey Matt, We checked into it further using the reserved word "Day", and have put more validation in.  We have tried using the latest API on it, and everything seems good now, and you properly get back the warning about the reserved word, and it causes no havoc this time.  Do you want to check your database on your end and ...

Hey guys - one thing I'll add before going further on that is check the table the dropdown is going to.  Make sure the values are unique. Since you are using the API, I could see you doing something like creating a new table, populating it with all the values and creating a dropdown in another table that references this new table.  ...

Hmmm....hard to say what the original problem was.  We were getting a few error messages from the API, after it was first released, which we were quickly able to solve.  Not sure if those errors had anything to do with you, so we'll keep an eye on it. For the customer screen, yes, it is confusing.  Since the Customer is ...

Hey Matt - Both Peter and I tried it here and couldn't duplicate the problem. Everything worked fine on our end with no messages. Was it a certain table you were having problems with, or all tables? Does it happen every time? Paul

We don't have the plan for .ics files in the immediate future, but we aren't far off having Outlook integration between Outlook calendars and Method Calendars, as well as Outlook emails to CRM activities and cases. :)  iCal, if it is still needed, isn't that hard to pull off, though.  In fact, you could easily do it using ...

Hey developers, I wanted to let everyone know that we made two API calls available today: MethodAPICreateTable and MethodAPICreateField. These simulate what you can do directly in the Method web app, under Customize > Tables / Fields.  So in other words you can create your own tables, as well as add fields to existing tables.  ...

"It seems the Fields from the Customer Tables are linked with Quickbooks. If so, is it possible to get activate the customfields for Customer Table from quickbooks or is that only possible by learning the Quickbooks SDK? Any limitations on the amount of "custom fields"?"-These are just the custom fields from QuickBooks.  ...

Hey Brent - yes I did receive the email about Google Gears.  Thank you for sending me that.  I haven't had the time to go through everything myself, and the other Method developers have their hands full, so it's something we need to look into in the future once we get time on our hands. Without knowing too much about it, though, ...

Brent, Hope your holidays went well. "CustomFields are not returning when i tried with MethodAPIFieldList which will return list of fields for the Customer table..(According to method documentation, we can post the values to the fileds, which is returning by the API - MethodAPIFieldList" -If there aren't any custom fields coming ...
