meninkilts — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 01:19:20 GMT

Hey Guys, Just wondering if it is possible yet (or general timeline) to have the calendars we would create in Method be "Subscribe" or "Read Only" .ICS files for crews in the field to subscribe to them with Google, Outlook or iCal? Regards Brent

Paul...our programmer asks the following... Here is his original question again and below his follow up question:....//"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" Paul replies....."-If there aren't any custom fields coming in, chances are the custom fields don't even exist in QuickBooks at all. If you have custom fields setup they will should show in the API just fine. They have to be setup in QuickBooks first." So our programmers question is...... "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"? Cheers Brent

Hi Paul, Holidays have been great!! Hope you had a great time with your family ;-) I'm going to have the programmer post in this forum as well if they have something that may get a too technical for me.. but I want to thank you for your replies and helping us push through this learning curve. Also curious ...did you look at Google Gears and Remember the Milk (I'm sure you get tons of email...it was from email address bhohlweg AT meninkilts.net couple weeks back ...) those examples will allow you to take Method On and Offline if the internet goes down !!! Cheers Brent

Hi Guys, Our programmer replies below...could you help us with their questions: "I have checked Method integration issue for meninkilts project still the same problem i am facing what i have faced before. Here is the Method Integration Issues that i am facing.. I've checked the Method people's response in Method forum.. As per our requirement in meninkilts , Need to pass all the customer information along with Estimation values.. As per the Method persons response, 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) so, i can't able to insert any values using customfields.. And another thing is like, when i tried to pass some grandtotal value to TotalBalance field in Customer table, its not allowing to insert because TotalBalance fields are not supporting for edit or add a value in to that, because Default setting for the TotalBalance fields is set as False..so, only string values can be able to insert using MethodAPI.. only the customer information can be able to insert using MethodAPI.. " Thanks again guys

Method API - Advanced Development Question

meninkilts — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 05:11:34 GMT

Hi Guys, We are creating an online form that calls into the Method API...my programmer has these questions that I'm hoping you can help us with in our development....

He writes.... "How can i make use of customfields in the table Customer in Method Integration, I found some customfields in Customer table Customize Table/Fields section.

I've tried to insert some customer information using the WebMethod using webservice file service.asmx from my .aspx page. The method name is MethodAPIInsert(sCompanyAccount,sUserName,sPassword,sInsertTable, arrInsertFieldsArray,arrInsertValueArray, ref intRecordID)

Here in arrInsertFieldsArray , i tried to pass CustomField2 with corresponding arrInsertValueArray .. But its not inserting the value in CustomField2

And also i want to know about this MethodAPIInsert function like, it accepts only array of string as arrInsertValueArray is an String Array. How can i pass some field values like TotalBalance? TotalBalance datatype is Money..so, when i tried to insert customer information along with TotalBalance amount its not inserting because TotalBalance datatype is Money? But MethodAPIInsert function accepts only array of strings arrInsertFieldsArray, arrInsertValueArray ?.."

Thanks very much.

Regards Brent

Re: Quickbooks file in Multi User

meninkilts — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 23:19:57 GMT

It appeared below a RESOLVE CONFLICT as ``method recommends perhaps using single user mode`...something to this effect. I cleared the Conflict and do not see a way to have a history of conflicts report so I can not be more accurate.

Most important everyonr now knows that using Quickbooks in MULTI USER is just fine.

Thank you.

Quickbooks file in Multi User

meninkilts — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 22:27:28 GMT

Can the Quickbooks file you link to with Method be run in Multi User mode instead of Single User. We have an error coming up and Method appears to suggest that it should be run in Single User as a solution.

Why Multi User...

We want to continue to run Qxpress in house on our Server. Then build up our Method account as the web connection to our Qxpress system. This allows us to avoid the ìf the internet is offline, how can we use method`
