Remarks

An account for this item. The interpretation of this property depends on the type of item. For items that are sold to customers, it should refer to an income account. For items that are purchased from vendors, it should refer to an expense account. For items are both purchased and sold, it should refer to the income account, and the appropriate purchase accounts may be specified with PurchaseExpenseAccount, PurchaseCOGSAccount, and PurchaseAssetAccount.

For payment items, this is the account to which funds are deposited. For discount items, this might typically refer to an associated income account. 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 field.

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