QuickBooks Online sync error: Type field is required for Item CREATE/UPDATE requests for Minor Version 51 or above.
Why the sync error occurs
This error occurs because QuickBooks Online supports only 3 item types: inventory, non-inventory, and service. Items of any other type will trigger this sync error when they try to sync to QuickBooks Online.
How to fix the sync error
If the item was created in Key CashFlow:
Delete the item that is erroring.
- Select Settings
- Select Classifications under Accounting
- Select Items
- Select the delete icon
Re-create the item with the correct type
- Select Settings
- Select Classifications under Accounting
- Select Items
- Select New
- Enter item details
- Select Save
If the item synced over from QuickBooks Online to Key CashFlow, update the type of the item in QuickBooks Online and run a sync to update the item in Key CashFlow.
To avoid this error in the future, create items of type inventory, non-inventory, or service only.
