Resolution

This error means that a related customer or product for the order is missing in QuickBooks (this could mean that it was recently deleted) - that our sync is relying on.

To resolve this, you would run a Refresh Data of your customers/products by following the steps in MyWorks Sync > Refresh Data.

To refresh data, follow the below steps:

  1. Visit MyWorks Sync > Refresh Data in your WordPress admin.
  2. Enable the switches for data you wish to refresh (ex. Customer, Product) – then save.
  3. Ensure the Queue in MyWorks Sync > Queue is empty – (0).
  4. Visit the Web Connector on your computer, and click Update Selected.
  5. Once the progress bars are complete in the Web Connector, re-visit the Refresh Data page above, turn off all the switches, and save.
