Correction.  Actually, we had to capture the county name in the checkout, wrote that to the orders table during the checkout wrapup process, and built a new report.

Phone or e-mail - see my site for details.  Easy solution - we just changed a report that allows the client to gather the details they need for sales tax reporting.  That client does not use the QB Synch tool.

Many thanks for the comments.  We are trying to give qbsync module another go if we can get over the tax hurdle.  Am curious how to others overcome not being able to pull taxes in by county as NC has different taxes in different counties and have up to know running our sales tax reports based on county.  Any ideas or solutions, anyone?

@sdalan  -  We created a new build that supports both auto incrementing order numbering (in supported QB versions) and ProductCart order numbering.

I can see how the invoice numbering behavior could be problematic if you enter orders directly into QB as well. For me, however, this was a welcomed improvement from the prior sync app that incremented from the last number in used in QB. Don't know how everyone else works, but for us, after we ship we bring orders in as sales receipts and the receipts show up in undeposited funds. Now that the PC order number is the SR number, it makes handling receipts and reconciling a lot easier for us. Because the dates are sometimes different for various reasons, it use to be a maddening experience. Now it's a breeze. Hopefully the developers can make it an option so the end users can choose to operate it.

Just an update on this thread: a support ticket was raised with regard to the Invoice Number issue and we are researching ways to address the limitation.

The problem (and the reason why the ProductCart Synchronizer for QuickBooks was written that way) is that different versions of QuickBooks appear to react differently to the data that is transferred to QuickBooks from ProductCart.

More to come...

I agree with the previous comment.  However, there are a few limitations.

The most significant is with the Quickbooks invoice number.  Whenever a ProductCart order is transferred to Quickbooks it resets the Quickbooks invoice number to the ProductCard order number.  This is very inconvenient especially when you are using both ProductCard and Quickbooks to place orders simultaneously.  Our previous shopping cart vendor did not act this way.  It also had a Quickbooks synchronizer.  When the order was transferred to Quickbooks it always used the next Quickbooks invoice number in the sequence.

With that said, I suppose if you never create an invoice in Quickbooks and use ProductCart to place all your orders this would not be an issue.

I also thought of sending all ProductCart orders to Quickbooks as sales receipts and never use Quickbooks to create a sales receipt since the same problem exists with reseting the sales receipt number.

Another limitation is the synchronizer (web connector) will fail if there is a modul window open in Quickbooks.

I still give the plugin a thumbs up with hopes these issues will be resolved in the near future.  I'm a ProductCart reseller and developer, so I plan on continuing to recommend ProductCart to our customers.
