Updating Quickbooks, Experiencing Yardi
by admin on Sep.24, 2008, under Computers, Installation, Programs
Recently, I had to work on some Quickbooks for a client. One thing I noticed is that there are so many ways to botch a configuration or install if you are going off of someone else’s work. Regardless, if you are running a database server with Quickbooks, and are installing the Single-Host client on machines, make sure that you have added your folders to the first tab in the Database Manager for Quickbooks, and allowed it to scan. Once this is done, you should be good.
Another thing you may encounter is a program called Yardi. If you do, make sure that wherever your files are located (I was lucky enough to have two sets of data for different purposes), write down what users have what access to those files. In my case, the people trying to access both sets of data had to log into one, then open another database and change the location. It was not giving them a choice for the data, so you must log on with whatever user has access to the first one you setup and then switch to the second.
If anyone has problems with either application, comment on this article or contact me via the Contact Me form and I’ll see if I have any insights. Good luck, and make sure you always document.
