At some point during the order syncing process from ProductCart to Quickbooks, the "&" in the company name field becomes "& 38:" Not sure if this is a Quickbooks bug or if it has been addressed in the forums previously, but it is becoming a significant inconvenience.

Hi, It's a character translation problem &#38 is a character reference to represent an ampersand. Please raise a support ticket.

Thanks for the quick response! I'm assuming this will be a "ProductCart Synchronizer for Quickbooks - Support Incidents" vs. a standard technical support ticket...
