AddProperty Method

Sets the value of the specified property.

Syntax

qbobject.addProperty(propertyName, propertyValue, [callback])

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 this 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 method should be used to specify the object's property values, before invoking Add.

The properties should be specified one by one, in the same order that they are listed in the SDK documentation. All property values should be formatted as a string; aggregate properties should be formatted with XML tags, as appropriate.

The following pseudocode shows how to add a service line item to QuickBooks.

GenericQBObject1.ObjectName = "ItemService"
GenericQBObject1.ObjectType = "Txn"
GenericQBObject1.AddProperty("Name", "Item name here")
GenericQBObject1.AddProperty("SalesOrPurchase",
  "<AccountRef><FullName>Account name here</FullName></AccountRef>")
GenericQBObject1.Add()
