Error: This application has not accessed this QuickBooks company data file before. The QuickBooks administrator must grant an application permission to access a QuickBooks company data file for the first time.
Cause: The Edge does not have permission to access QuickBooks. This may happen after updating The Edge. You will probably be prompted to give permission.
Solution: Follow prompts to give the highest permission available. See the section in The Edge User Guide entitled QuickBooks Setup.
Error: “incMisc(accountName) is not set up”
Cause: There is a new Miscellaneous Sale Line setup that is being used at point of sale. This Miscellaneous Line is not associated with a QuickBooks account.
Solution: Select Administrative ► QB ► Setup QB Integration ► MISC. Then select and map the unmapped Misc. Line to an account in QuickBooks. See the section entitled QuickBooks Misc Items Tab for complete details.
Error: QBXML … There is an invalid reference to QuickBooks PaymentMethod “XYZ” in the ReceivePayment.

1. Then, in QuickBooks, go to Banking> Make Deposits and deposit what you know to be real and factual.
2. This puts a checkmark on all the entries in undeposited funds leaving the duplicates as unchecked.
3. Go the chart of accounts and double click undeposited funds.
4. Scroll to the bottom (for the most recent)
5. Highlight the first UNCHECKED entry and press CTRL+D
6. Repeat for all remaining duplicates.
