    Actinic Quickbooks Link Translation Bug

    Unfortunately (and to my cost) I have found another problem with the Actinic Quickbooks Link application. An Italian customer placed an order and the address included this line:

    C/o Residenza Unversitaria "Segesta" Via Gaetano Daita 11 Palermo

    A month after importing this into Quickbooks using Actinic and shipping the order the customer reported the item as missing. I had to ship a duplicate order using a priority service.

    Today the missing package arrived, and on the package that address line reads:

    c/o Residenza Unversitaria "Segesta" via

    I have determined that Quickbooks has a limit on the length of the address field (40 characters). During import the data is being truncated. It would be nice if Actinic Link could warn the user (me) of any data that is too big for the Quickbooks field or that is going to be truncated.

    The problem I have now is that I am going to have to count the number of characters in eacxh line of an address before importing.

    I think Quickbooks Link is a bit of a misnomer.
