When syncing SME to QuickBooks, if you receive the message "Error Connecting to QuickBooks", you are logging into QuickBooks with a path that is different than that refereced by SQLink. This typically happens if you open QuickBooks on a client and try to sync when the initial sync was established on the server.
To run SQLink on client machines, you will need to do the following:
- From the client computer, browse to the sme5 executable folder and locate the SQLink Documentation folder.
- Run the QBFC7_0Installer.
Also, SQLink and QuickBooks must reference the same path to access the QuickBooks company file. to check this:
- Open QuickBooks.
- Press F2 to open the Product Information window.
- Locate the File Information section and make note of the path in the Location field.
- Launch SQLink.
- Click File > Link Setup.
- Locate the Quick Books Company File field. The path in this field must be the same as the path noted in QuickBooks (step 3 above).
