Requirements

The computer where QuickBooks is installed will be communicating directly with the ChamberMaster server over the Internet and through your local network. This computer will need a piece of software installed on it called ChamberMaster-QuickBooks Interface (CQI) software. Only one machine may have this software installed. The machine where this software is installed is sometimes referred to as the CQI computer. Before installing or identifying this QuickBooks computer, keep these considerations in mind:

This QuickBooks computer

Must be a Windows-based, PC computer (Macintosh may not be used)

must have QuickBooks Pro 2003 or newer installed*

(QuickBooks Pro 2005 for Windows or higher recommended)

(QuickBooks Premiere may be used)

(QuickBooks Online Edition may not be used)

*If using Windows 7, QuickBooks Pro 2007 or newer is required and the QB data file(s) must be in a shared folder that has NTFS permissions set to allow everyone Read/Write ability.

*If using QuickBooks 2009 or later, ensure all QuickBooks updates have been installed before installing CQI. Help->Update QuickBooks.

must be powered on when membership record updates are synchronized with QuickBooks, a balance is refreshed, or invoices created (QB Updates will continue to be marked even if this machine is not powered on. Updates may be synchronized at a later time. Event & one-time invoices are queued and generated at your convenience. Recurring invoices may be run whenever you desire.)

must use only this one QuickBooks company file; opening multiple, different QuickBooks companies on this computer may compromise integrity

is recommended to be the machine that most often uses QuickBooks

will perform best if accessed on one of your fastest computers
