I'm attempting to add an item to the ItemNonInventory table using QB Pro 2007 and v7.00.00.207 of the QODBC driver.  For compatability with another program I'm using in my solution, I've trimmed the number of significant characters in a QB field name to 31.

Here's my SQL statement:

INSERT INTO ItemNonInventory ("Name", "SalesAndPurchaseSalesDesc", "SalesAndPurchaseSalesPrice", "SalesAndPurchaseIncomeAcctRefL") VALUES ('048243163557', '12/3G 250 GRND SOLID N-M WIRE', 00.00, '80000008-1167849636')

The SDK log contains:

20070209.151917 I 3192 QBSDKProcessRequest Application named 'FLEXquarters QODBC' starting requests (process 2612).
20070209.151918 E 3192 XercesSAXErrorHandler Not enough elements to match content model : '(SalesDesc?,SalesPrice?,IncomeAccountRef,PurchaseDesc?,PurchaseCost?,PurchaseTaxCodeRef?,ExpenseAccountRef,PrefVendorRef?)' -- error at line 7, column 220 in XML data.

20070209.151918 E 2612 RequestProcessor Process Request error = 80042500, There was an error when parsing the provided XML file.

The QODBC log contains:

Please help.

The SQL statement you're using is incorrect, it should be:

INSERT INTO ItemNonInventory
("Name", "IsActive", "SalesTaxCodeRefListID", "SalesAndPurchaseSalesDesc",
"SalesAndPurchaseSalesPrice","SalesAndPurchaseIncomeAccountRefListID", "SalesAndPurchasePurchaseDesc",
"SalesAndPurchasePurchaseCost", "SalesAndPurchaseExpenseAccountRefListID", "SalesAndPurchasePrefVendorRefListID")
VALUES
('Support Ticket', TRUE, '10000-999022286', 'Callback VoIP Charge',
33.00, '1D0000-933270542', 'CallBack VoIP', 
33.00, '4D0000-933270542', '140000-933272657')

See: How do I insert data into ItemNonInventory? for more.

OK, but the data required seems excessive.  I've had to start using the "SalesAndPurchase..." elements since my customer is using a different method to input his data using QB Pro 2007.  He was previously using QB Pro 2002 and with that imported QBW file, the SQL statement to perform the same function was:

INSERT INTO ItemNonInventory
("Name", "SalesOrPurchaseDesc", "SalesOrPurchasePrice","SalesOrPurchaseAccountRefListID")
VALUES
('Support Ticket', '10000-999022286', 33.00, '1D0000-933270542')

Why does going to the "SalesAndPurchase..." model from "SalesOrPurchase..." require so much overhead?

To create a standard Non Inventory Part you can also use a more simplified INSERT statement like this:

INSERT INTO ItemNonInventory
("Name", "IsActive", "SalesORPurchaseDesc",
"SalesTaxCodeRefListID", "SalesOrPurchasePrice", "SalesOrPurchaseAccountRefListID")
VALUES
('QODBC NonInventory Test', TRUE, 'Test Insert of Non Inventory Part',
'20000-999022286', 100.00, '190000-933270541')

QODBC doesn't do any data validation, this is done by QuickBooks. For the samples I provided I've used all the columns necessary to ensure we are not putting garbage in and we are setting up proper accounting procedures.
