Remarks

Except as noted in the documentation, a value of "1.1" will suffice for all requests and for all versions of QuickBooks Desktop that support integrated applications.

With each release of QuickBooks Desktop since 2002, a corresponding version of the QuickBooks Desktop SDK has also been released: 1.0 for QuickBooks Desktop 2002, 2.0 for QuickBooks Desktop 2003, 3.0 for QuickBooks Desktop 2004, etc., up to 8.0 for QuickBooks Desktop 2009. In addition, each release of QuickBooks Desktop continues to support all earlier versions of the SDK, meaning that requests using version 1.1 of the QuickBooks Desktop SDK are supported by all versions of QuickBooks Desktop. However, new requests and newer fields in existing requests are supported in only later versions of the QuickBooks Desktop SDK. As such, it is recommended that you set the QBXMLVersion property to correspond to the version of QuickBooks Desktop you are interacting with. These values are:

QuickBooks Desktop 2002	1.0, 1.1
QuickBooks Desktop 2003	2.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2004	3.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2005	4.0, 4.1
QuickBooks Desktop 2006	5.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2007	6.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2008	7.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2009	8.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2010	9.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2011	10.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2012	11.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2013	12.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2014	13.0
QuickBooks Desktop 2018	14.0

In addition, versions of QuickBooks Desktop outside of the U.S. released before QuickBooks Desktop 2008 adhere to a different version of the QuickBooks Desktop SDK. These versions were updated with less frequency than the U.S. SDK and may omit features introduced in later releases:

QuickBooks Desktop Canadian 2003	CA2.0
QuickBooks Desktop Canadian 2004 to 2007	CA3.0
QuickBooks Desktop UK 2003	UK2.0
QuickBooks Desktop UK 2004 to 2007	UK3.0
