qbxml QuickBooks XML BillAddress invalid according to DTD - quickbooks

Version 13.0 of qbxml. Why is the validator listing XML elements that are not in my XML and are not required as something it's expecting?
In all the references I've seen it lists Memo after BillAddress for InvoiceAdd.

The order of the tags in qbXML is important.
If the OSR shows, for example, that the ShipMethod, ShipDate, and PONumber tags come AFTER the BillAddress tag, then you MUST follow that order.
Refer to the OSR:
https://developer-static.intuit.com/qbSDK-current/Common/newOSR/index.html
Make sure your tags are in the correct order. Currently they are not due to the ShipDate, ShipMethodRef, and PONumber tags being prior to BillAddress.

QBXML InvoiceAdd Error 3250 Feature Not Enabled Or Available

I have been able to create basic invoices via the API with single line items. These have not shipping etc.
Now, when trying to add complete Invoice with the Shipping Line Item (Type = Other Charge). I am getting error 3250 - This feature is not enabled or not available in this version of QuickBooks.

I have tried searching the docs for some setting in QB I may need to change but have come up empty. Hoping someone can help with this.
This error is usually related to something you don't have turned on in QuickBooks.
If you were to create this same invoice in QuickBooks directly, would you be able to choose all of those options?
Have you tried creating an invoice with an absolute minimum of information? e.g. without the sales tax, without the inventory sites, without the template, without the sales terms, etc.?
I'd bet that you either:
Don't have sales tax enabled
or
Don't have inventory site location tracking enabled

How to open the QuickBooks Desktop UI and prefill an invoice with items?

I'm using Intuit QuickBooks Pro 2015.
With QBXMLRP2 and with the following XML file I can open the QuickBooks UI and prefill a new invoice with the desired customer, on this case: George Clooney.
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<?qbxml version="4.0"?>
<QBXML>
<QBXMLMsgsRq onError="stopOnError">
<TxnDisplayAddRq requestID = "1">
<TxnDisplayAddType>Invoice</TxnDisplayAddType>
<EntityRef>
<FullName>George Clooney</FullName>
</EntityRef>
</TxnDisplayAddRq>
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>
Until here everything is OK.
My problem is that I need to add items to this invoice.
Then, I try something like:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<?qbxml version="4.0"?>
<QBXML>
<QBXMLMsgsRq onError="stopOnError">
<TxnDisplayAddRq requestID = "1">
<TxnDisplayAddType>Invoice</TxnDisplayAddType>
<EntityRef>
<FullName>George Clooney</FullName>
</EntityRef>
<InvoiceLineAdd>
<Desc>For the house</Desc>
<Quantity>1</Quantity>
<Rate>120.00</Rate>
</InvoiceLineAdd>
</TxnDisplayAddRq>
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>
but I get the following error:
Exception: QuickBooks found an error when parsing the provided XML text stream.
On the Programmer's Guide I don't find the way to do this:
https://developer-static.intuit.com/qbSDK-current/doc/PDF/QBSDK_ProGuide.pdf
Here are the available XML examples:
https://github.com/IntuitDeveloper/QBXML_SDK13_Samples/tree/master/xmlfiles/legacy
For my example I used specifically, the file: TxnDisplayAdd_Invoice.xml.
My question: How do I add items to this new invoice?
Thanks.
You should refer to the QuickBooks OSR for qbXML reference:
https://developer-static.intuit.com/qbsdk-current/common/newosr/index.html
The supported XML request nodes look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?qbxml version="13.0"?>
<QBXML>
<QBXMLMsgsRq onError="stopOnError">
<TxnDisplayAddRq>
<!-- TxnDisplayAddType may have one of the following values: Bill, BillPayment, BuildAssembly, Charge, Check, CreditCardCharge, CreditCardCredit, CreditMemo, Deposit, Estimate, InventoryAdjustment, Invoice, ItemReceipt, JournalEntry, PurchaseOrder, ReceivePayment, SalesOrder, SalesReceipt, SalesTaxPaymentCheck, VendorCredit -->
<TxnDisplayAddType >ENUMTYPE</TxnDisplayAddType> <!-- required -->
<EntityRef> <!-- optional -->
<ListID >IDTYPE</ListID> <!-- optional -->
<FullName >STRTYPE</FullName> <!-- optional -->
</EntityRef>
</TxnDisplayAddRq>
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>
In short - you can't do what you're trying to do. QuickBooks doesn't support it.
The only thing you can pre-fill is the entity (customer).

quickbooks desktop web connector qbxml: add invoice with CLASS field

I'm trying to add an invoice and populate its CLASS field with a value (I can't post a screenshot of the invoice "CLASS" field because I don't have the reputation, its the field just to the right of "PRICE EACH" field), I don't know how to add the CLASS value in the qbxml.
Here is the xml I'm using and it works:
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<QBXML>
<QBXMLMsgsRq onError="stopOnError">

</InvoiceLineAdd>
</InvoiceAdd>
</InvoiceAddRq>
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>';
I'm using QuickBooks Enterprise, Web connector ver: 2.1.0.30. So what do I have to add in the xml for the "CLASS" field?
Thanks in advance.
You can always refer to the QuickBooks OSR for XML reference for QuickBooks desktop:
https://developer-static.intuit.com/qbSDK-current/Common/newOSR/index.html
In this specific case, you can set the Class on a per line item basis like this:
...
<InvoiceLineAdd>
<ItemRef>
<FullName>16 Electrical and Lighting</FullName>
</ItemRef>
<Desc>Item 1 Description Goes Here</Desc>
<Quantity>1</Quantity>
<Rate>33.00</Rate>
<ClassRef>
<ListID> ... specify a ListID here ...</ListID
<!-- Or, instead of ListID you can specify: -->
<FullName> ... specify Class FullName here ...</FullName>
</InvoiceLineAdd>

Error adding sales order with InventoryRef in quickbooks desktop

I am sending a QBXML to quickbooks for adding a sales order. Everything runs fine but when i add the tag for InventoryRef as below i get XML not valid error.
<SalesOrderLineAdd>
<InventorySiteRef>
<FullName>Austin</FullName>
</InventorySiteRef>
<ItemRef>
<FullName>ES-10BLU</FullName>
</ItemRef>
<Desc>BS10ELU</Desc>
<Quantity>3</Quantity>
<Rate>100.0</Rate>
</SalesOrderLineAdd>
http://www.consolibyte.com/docs/index.php/QbXML_for_Adding_a_Sales_Order
the above link does not have InventorySiteRef as a valid add tag, but the on screen reference on intuit( https://developer-static.intuit.com/qbSDK-current/Common/newOSR/index.html ) has this field as a valid tag in add request.
Please let me know why i get invalid XML error when i send InventorySiteRef tag as mentioned in OSR?

<InventorySiteRef>
<FullName>Austin</FullName>
</InventorySiteRef>
</SalesOrderLineAdd>
</SalesOrderAdd>
</SalesOrderAddRq>
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>
The above is the request XML which i am sending. I tested it with Quickbooks SDK and it gives me the following error
-2147220480 QuickBooks found an error when parsing the provided XML text stream.
The error occurs only when InventorySiteRef is added. Otherwise it is processed though the OSR shows this tag in request
I have resolved this issue. The qbxml version was the issue. I was using 8.0 which didn't support InventorySiteRef tag in sales order add. I changed it to 12 which supports this tag and it worked like a charm.
Hope it helps someone facing such issue. :)
You should use the Validator program included with the QBXML SDK to see what line is in error.
In this case, InventorySiteRef is not in the correct order. Order does matter and this should be at the end of the SalesOrderLineAdd and not the beginning.

QBXML InvoiceAddRq and Taxes

I'm having an issue trying to get tax applied to an invoice with QBXML. I'm using SalesTaxCodeRef in InvoiceLineAdd but it doesn't seem that it's working for whatever reason. This same code worked for SalesReceiptAddRq. Am I missing a flag or something?

For non-USA versions of QuickBooks (CA, UK, etc.):
What you have should work, ASSUMING that the Sales Tax Code "SBT" is correctly mapped to a tax rate in your tax preferences within QuickBooks.
For USA versions of QuickBooks:
Sales tax codes just indicate whether something is TAXable, or NONtaxable. They do NOT actually indicate any tax amount, or force tax to be recorded/charged.
In addition to the Sales tax code, you also need to specify an ItemSalesTaxRef, which is a reference to a specific tax item (a specific tax rate, e.g. 7%).
...
<ItemSalesTaxRef>
<FullName>My Existing Tax Item Name</FullName>
</ItemSalesTaxRef>
<IsToBePrinted>true</IsToBePrinted>
...
CHeck your XML with the SDK Validator.
