Are you seeing this error when syncing orders into QuickBooks Online?

Error

Error:6000: [A business validation error has occurred while processing your request], with one of the below messages:

  • Something this action required is no longer available. Another user may have deleted it. Please refresh your screen to see the current information.
  • An unexpected error occurred while accessing or saving your data. Please wait a few minutes and try again. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

This error usually occurs:

  • When some type of data (customer, product, account) has been recently deleted in QuickBooks, and our sync isn't aware of this deletion.
  • A tax-related setting/mapping is incorrectly set/missing in our sync.

Troubleshooting Steps

  • Visit MyWorks Sync > Dashboard and click Refresh Customers & Products to update our sync with the latest QuickBooks customers/products. This will also update mappings if a customer/product has been deleted in QuickBooks.
  • If the error remains when re-pushing the order over, check your settings in MyWorks Sync > Settings - ensure all settings in the Default and Tax tab are correctly set, then save.
  • If the error remains, check your tax mappings in MyWorks Sync > Map. Ensure everything is correctly mapped to corresponding rates in QuickBooks, then click save.
