Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getExpenseClassId([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setExpenseClassId([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

A reference to the class of this expense. The class may be specified by either ExpenseClassName or ExpenseClassId. This property is only used if class tracking is being done with the QuickBooks company.

Name/Id Reference Properties

This property is used to reference an object that is already done within QuickBooks. This may be done with its full Name (this property) or its Id, for which a corresponding property is defined. If Name is used, it must contain the full name of the object referred to, as generated by QuickBooks. For hierarchically defined objects, such as Customers, this includes the names of parent objects, and the full name can be determined by reading the FullName special property.

Setting the value of this property will set the corresponding Id property to an empty string.

About Expenses:

In payment transactions (a Bill, a VendorCredit, a CCCharge, a CCCredit, or a Check) the payment may be tracked through Items and/or Expenses. A set of array properties is available for each. Expense lines are used to charge regularly occurring expenses such as freight charges, rent, etc., to an ExpenseAccount.

Expense line items consist of an ExpenseAccount (Name or Id), an ExpenseAmount, an ExpenseClass (Name or Id), an ExpenseCustomer (Name or Id), and an ExpenseMemo. The number of expense lines is given by ExpenseCount.

The size of the array is controlled by the ExpenseCount property.

This property is not available at design time.
