setCustomField (method)

Sets a custom field value within QuickBooks.

- (void)setCustomField:(NSString*)fieldName :(NSString*)fieldValue

Discussion

This method requires QuickBooks 2004 or above, with QBXMLVersion set to at least "3.0".

This method will immediately set the value of a QuickBooks custom field, which has been defined by the user from within the QuickBooks UI. You must first retrieve the appropriate object from QuickBooks, using Get, ObjSearch, etc. Then, you may use SetCustomField to set custom field values (the fields will be modified or added, as appropriate).

Note that invoking this method will create a connection to QuickBooks if one is not already in place.
