Time will not transfer, it keeps aborting.

When I open the QB Web Connector and click the application and update selected, it comes up with an error message "Application requested to abort". I downloaded the troubleshoot software and ran that and it did not fix the problem.

Yes I did get the problem fixed but now my app is not sinking to be able to clock in and out.

I'm glad that the previous issue has been resolved, Hobenour. Now, let's address the sync issue and the inability to clock in and out by performing some troubleshooting steps.

 

Before we move forward, have you encountered any error messages while accessing your QuickBooks Time app? Any additional details you can provide will help us understand the issue better and deliver the appropriate solution. 

 

For now, please ensure that your app is updated. Then, let's verify if you have location services turned on on your iPhone or Android device for the app. Doing so will ensure you can clock in and out.

 

If you're using an iPhone, please follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to Settings, select Privacy & Security, then Location Services. Ensure Location Services at the top is toggled On. Toggle off and back on again to refresh.
  2. Then, find the QuickBooks Workforce app in the list and set it to Always.
  3. Enable Precise Location.

 

If you're using Android, here's the step you can follow:

 

  1. Open your mobile Settings, then Apps.
  2. Choose QuickBooks Workforce, then Permissions.
  3. Select Location, Allow all the time, and Use precise location.

 

Refer to this article for more information: Troubleshoot QuickBooks Workforce.


If the issue persists, let's refresh the application to isolate the problem. This process is similar to clearing the cache on your web browser.

 

For IOS users, please follow these steps:

 

  1. Open your Settings, then tap General.
  2. Tap iPhone Storage. Choose the QuickBooks Workforce app.
  3. Click Offload App.

 

For Android users, here's how:

 

  1. Proceed to the Home menu or tap the three dots in the right upper right corner.
  2. Tap on Settings, then select Refresh Data.
  3. Press Yes.

It is fixed, but now the app is not synching with QB Time. How do I fix that?

It's good to hear that the clock in and out issue is fixed, @hobenour. Concerning the syncing error with QB Time, let's dive in and resolve it together.

 

Because of the troubleshooting steps that were performed, the preferences of the integration of QB Time and QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) have been reset. With that, we need to review and customize it according to your needs.

 

Here's how for QBDT:

 

  1. Go to the Edit tab and click Preferences.
  2. Select Time and Expenses.
  3. Pick Company Preferences, then click Yes next to Do you track time.
  4. Then, OK.

 

In QB Time:

 

  1. Select the QuickBooks dropdown, and click Preferences.

  2. Beneath Exporting Time to QuickBooks, select Export Approved Timesheets when Syncing.
  3. Map your payroll items.

 

Additionally, ensure that the Unlock Exported Time tab is activated. For additional information, check out this article: Sync data between QuickBooks Time and QuickBooks Desktop using Web Connector.

 

If your integration setup is correct, I recommend contacting QBDT Payroll or QB Time Support. They can review the connection between your two products and check the root cause of the sync issue. This way they can provide you the exact resolution on how to fix it.

 

Additionally, if you want to learn how to create, edit, delete, approve, and reject timesheets, or insert a break for your team members or crew, check out this article: Manage timesheets in QuickBooks Workforce.

 

Let me know if you have additional questions about fixing the syncing issue with your QBDT and QB Time. We'll be glad to assist you again. Take care always, and have a good one.
