OwnerId Property

The Id of an application.

Syntax

 company.getOwnerId([callback])
 company.setOwnerId( ownerId, [callback])

Default Value

""

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 getOwnerId([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 setOwnerId([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

This property specifies the Id of an application. It is commonly used in conjunction with the QBWCServer class to check if the application has previously communicated with the specified company file in the past.

If this property is set before calling Get, QuickBooks will return a value for FileId (if one exists). This can be compared to a known FileId value to determine if your application has previously worked with this file.

This format of this value must adhere to the GUIDTYPE defined in the QuickBooks SDK. The format is

{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}

where X is a hexadecimal digit. For example:

{6B063959-81B0-4622-85D6-F548C8CCB517}
