As per usual, Intuit has rolled out a Happy Holidays set of QuickBooks Desktop Product Release Updates just in time for your holiday celebration.
Be aware, if you have automatic updates turned on, QuickBooks will be prompting you to install the download in the near future. That means if you don't want to install it, you need to turn-off auto-updates now.
Release 7 (R7) – December 2022
The changes, improvements and fixes elaborated below were included in this release for QuickBooks Pro-Plus 2022, QuickBooks Premier-Plus 2022, QuickBooks Accountant 2022 and QuickBooks Enterprise v22.0. As always, each new update also includes all the changes, enhancements and fixes from any earlier updates.
Web Connector
- Patch support available for Web Connector 3.0 providing better management for request time out scenarios.
Migrate from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online
- Providing a streamlined tool to migrate to QuickBooks Online from either QuickBooks Pro/Premier products or QuickBooks Enterprise versions.
SDK Problem Fixes
- Fixed issues with SDK version 15 schema in support of QuickBooks Desktop 2020 along with new tags put in place in both SDK 15 and 16.
Should You Update?
This is always a question, and because of the holidays I wanted to get this out to you even though supposedly our presses are closed, so I haven't even given the release a test run yet. Therefore, you are on your own if you go ahead and get in a rush to download and install.
Personally, I don't see anything here that won't wait unless you’ve been having problems with your application not connecting via Web Connector, or you cannot use an application because of SDK integration issues.
Even in these cases, you may still have to wait on your application developer to adjust to either the Web Connector or SDK related changes.
If you aren't in a rush to get to any of the few things in this release and you decide to hold off for a week or so while perhaps others chime in if they experience issues, you may want to make certain that Auto-updates have been turned-off inside QuickBooks until you are ready to proceed with this update.
If you do proceed with updating to Release 7, let us know if you experience issues by posting comments to this article.
