The following changes, improvements, and fixes are included in maintenance release R6 for QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2018, QuickBooks Desktop Premier 2018 and QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise 18.0. Later releases (ones with higher numbers) include all changes in earlier releases.
Bank Feeds - For users of Capital One bank, this maintenance release will require you to perform a special one-time set-up in order to continue use of 'bank feeds'. This is required so you can use the upgraded technology which Capital One has mandated for on-line 'bank feed' users.
Payroll (Pay Stubs) - There has been in issue in which some employees actually received the pay-stub for another employee and were able to open it with their own password. The R6 maintenance release reportedly resolves this error.
Payments - As part of this R6 maintenance release, all first-time users who have never sent an e-invoice to their customers will have a reminder displayed advising them to send e-invoices after every 7th invoice emailed.
Error 80029c4a - Maintenance release R6 reportedly makes improvements to the installation process to reduce the occurrence of this error.
As always I recommend waiting a brief time to see if any issues arise out of this newest maintenance release; however, if you are making use of these features you may wish to proceed with download and update. If you do not want to proceed, now is the time to turn off 'automatic updates' on all your QuickBooks installations as Intuit will be pushing out these updates over the next few days even though they are already available for 'manual update' from Intuit's official Downloads and Update website. By the way, if you have not seen it, the "Downloads and Update" page has undergone some revisions as of late.
