如何为QuickBooks Web连接器创建.qwc文件？

Question

我正在将QuickBooks（桌面版本）与ASP.NET应用程序集成。为此，我正在使用QuickBooks Web连接器。如何为我的自定义Web服务创建.qwc文件？

Answer 1

Web连接器实际上只是位于QuickBooks和您自己的应用程序之间的代理或中继。

作为一个概述 - 基本上，您构建了一个SOAP服务器/ Web服务，它讲述了一组特定的方法。然后，Web连接器安装在运行QuickBooks的计算机上，并询问您的Web服务，询问“嘿，我有什么要做？”然后，您的Web服务可以响应qbXML请求（examples of qbXML here），告诉Web连接器“添加此客户：...“或”发送匹配的发票......“等.Web Connector然后将这些请求转发给QuickBooks，QuickBooks处理它们，并将响应转发回您的Web服务。您的Web服务可能会以某种方式处理响应，然后将下一个请求发送到Web连接器。

还有一个更大的overview of the Web Connector here或者，如果您下载QuickBooks SDK它有一个100页以上的PDF页面详细解释了这一点。

你可能也想看看下面这个例子安装QuickBooks的SDK后：

• C：\ Program Files文件（x86）的\忒\ IDN \ QBSDK12.0 \样本\ qbdt \ C-锐\ qbXML \ WCWebService

这是Web连接器SOAP实现的完整工作示例。

在它的最基本的形式，它看起来是这样的：

[WebMethod] 
    /// <summary> 
    /// WebMethod - authenticate() 
    /// To verify username and password for the web connector that is trying to connect 
    /// Signature: public string[] authenticate(string strUserName, string strPassword) 
    /// 
    /// IN: 
    /// string strUserName 
    /// string strPassword 
    /// 
    /// OUT: 
    /// string[] authReturn 
    /// Possible values: 
    /// string[0] = ticket 
    /// string[1] 
    /// - empty string = use current company file 
    /// - "none" = no further request/no further action required 
    /// - "nvu" = not valid user 
    /// - any other string value = use this company file 
    /// </summary> 
    public string[] authenticate(string strUserName, string strPassword) 
    { 
     string[] authReturn = new string[2]; 

     // Generate a random session ticket 
     authReturn[0]= System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString(); 

     // For simplicity of sample, a hardcoded username/password is used. 
     string pwd="password"; 

     if (strUserName.Trim().Equals("username") && strPassword.Trim().Equals(pwd)) 
     { 
      // An empty string for authReturn[1] means asking QBWebConnector 
      // to connect to the company file that is currently openned in QB 
      authReturn[1]=""; 
     } 
     else 
     { 
      authReturn[1]="nvu"; 
     } 

     return authReturn; 
    } 

    [ WebMethod(Description="This web method facilitates web service to send request XML to QuickBooks via QBWebConnector",EnableSession=true) ] 
    /// <summary> 
    /// WebMethod - sendRequestXML() 
    /// Signature: public string sendRequestXML(string ticket, string strHCPResponse, string strCompanyFileName, 
    /// string Country, int qbXMLMajorVers, int qbXMLMinorVers) 
    /// 
    /// IN: 
    /// int qbXMLMajorVers 
    /// int qbXMLMinorVers 
    /// string ticket 
    /// string strHCPResponse 
    /// string strCompanyFileName 
    /// string Country 
    /// int qbXMLMajorVers 
    /// int qbXMLMinorVers 
    /// 
    /// OUT: 
    /// string request 
    /// Possible values: 
    /// - “any_string” = Request XML for QBWebConnector to process 
    /// - "" = No more request XML 
    /// </summary> 
    public string sendRequestXML(string ticket, string strHCPResponse, string strCompanyFileName, 
     string qbXMLCountry, int qbXMLMajorVers, int qbXMLMinorVers) 
    { 
     // QuickBooks has asked for your next request 

     ... return a qbXML request here ... 
    } 

    [ WebMethod(Description="This web method facilitates web service to receive response XML from QuickBooks via QBWebConnector",EnableSession=true) ] 
    /// <summary> 
    /// WebMethod - receiveResponseXML() 
    /// Signature: public int receiveResponseXML(string ticket, string response, string hresult, string message) 
    /// 
    /// IN: 
    /// string ticket 
    /// string response 
    /// string hresult 
    /// string message 
    /// 
    /// OUT: 
    /// int retVal 
    /// Greater than zero = There are more request to send 
    /// 100 = Done. no more request to send 
    /// Less than zero = Custom Error codes 
    /// </summary> 
    public int receiveResponseXML(string ticket, string response, string hresult, string message) 
    { 
     // QuickBooks has sent you a qbXML response to your request 

     ... do something with 'response' here ... 
    } 

这个例子还包括例如.QWC文件。 Here's some .QWC file documentation这里有一个基本的例子：

<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<QBWCXML> 
    <AppName>QuickBooks Integrator</AppName> 
    <AppID></AppID> 
    <AppURL>https://secure.domain.com/quickbooks/server.php</AppURL> 
    <AppDescription></AppDescription> 
    <AppSupport>http://www.domain.com/quickbooks/support.php</AppSupport>

    <FileID>{57F3B9B6-86F1-4FCC-B1FF-967DE1813D20}</FileID>

    <Scheduler> 
     <RunEveryNMinutes>2</RunEveryNMinutes>

</QBWCXML>
