Intuit has released the
R9 update for
QuickBooks 2011 that addresses a number of issues with QuickBooks 2011. This update will take care of the known 1603 error that most of our QuickBooks 2011 users are experiencing.
As of the moment, the R4 patch is available as a manual update from QuickBooks support website, if everything goes well with this update it will be available as an automatic update very soon.
Here’s a list of important fixes included in this update:
Install
• Fixed most of the 1603 error.
Startup
• QuickBooks should now open correctly and not get any issues where old QuickBooks services prevent the program from opening after installing an update.
File Operation
• QuickBooks will no longer get stuck on the message: “Working: Rebuilding data “while rebuilding the company data file when there are special characters in the online payee record.
• All the possible fields that could contain the correct name (name, address line 0, address line 1, name on check, first-middle-last) – are compared to the online payee to find the right match. Verify data should now only report a problem when there is no match.
• QuickBooks will no longer display the message: Message: “Another user has made changes to this Invoice or a transaction that is linked to it” when creating or editing transactions in Multi-User mode.
Accountant’s Copy
• The error “Warning: There was a problem sending changes to the accountant copy file transfer server…” will no longer be caused by entering long dashes in MS Word and pasting them into the Additional Notes.
• Using the Accountants File Transfer Service to convert a QB 2009 client’s file with QBA 2011 will no longer give the following incorrect message: “The accountant’s Copy transfer file came from QuickBooks 2009. You can edit it with QuickBooks Accountant 2011……” The message is incorrect – you can only edit files from the previous year’s version.
Client Data Review
• Client Data Review will no longer unexpectedly close when using the Troubleshoot Inventory feature and changing the filter criteria.
• Client Data Review will no longer unexpectedly close when filtering by account in the “Fix unapplied customer payments and credits” feature.
User Interface
