Also a new “Reauthorize” button has been added in the Integrated App Preferences that will generate the new config files for the QB XML SDK apps running in unattended mode. User-specific apps will require the individual user to log in once the update has been installed.Customers using QuickBooks Desktop on a single computer in a multi-user mode will need to ensure that the administrator/ or users on that computer have logged-in at least once.If a new app needs to be authorized, the Admin should log in to authorize the app for the first time.

If there is a password change, , it should be the respective user who should login to the QuickBooks UI to complete the update. Customers will also be asked to log in if access levels of a third-party application are changed, a new application is added to the list of QB XML SDK applications, or if the QuickBooks password has been changed.Once the update is installed, each user on every computer used to access QuickBooks Desktop will be required to log in to QuickBooks to enable the QB XML SDK application to connect or the Admin can login to QuickBooks on each computer for the first time after the upgrade and this will automatically authorize all of the applications for all of the users previously authorized to access the apps.The implementation of this update will require customers to re-enter their login-in credentials. A new file specific to a Windows user in a given machine is created on user login that provides access to a QB XML SDK app in QuickBooks. The earlier concept of an LGB file that provided access to QB XML SDK apps has been deprecated. Rather, the update might affect applications where the desktop application runs in unattended mode (e.g., shopping cart integration via web connector). There is no impact to QB XML SDK applications that access QuickBooks Desktop while being used by a QuickBooks user. Intuit is reinforcing existing security features that help protect QuickBooks customers’ sensitive information.Īs a result of this effort, Intuit is delivering an update that impacts third-party applications that connect to QuickBooks Desktop using the QuickBooks XML SDK.
