QuickBooksRepair Open Quantity Repair Tool

Have you received the warning message "Some sales orders or estimates may be incorrectly marked as closed or display incorrect invoiced quantities" or the QBWin.log error "Verify Target: Invalid Open Quantity: Target ="? While they may not be critical errors they can cause other problems such as preventing the QuickBooks backup procedure from completing if your settings indicate that verify should be run prior to backing the file up. If that continues to happen and no recent backups have been successfully made then should some catastrophic error occur and the file become seriously corrupted for another reason then you could be left with the options of either sending your file off for a costly repair or spending countless hours re-entering all your important information.

The solution to the problem lies in locating and correcting the offending transactions. All the information required to locate the transactions is contained in the QuickBooks log file. If there are only one or two transactions then all you need to do is locate each one and record a new line at the end of the transaction with a character such as a period in the description field and then rebuild the file. If there are many transactions then this process can be tedious.

The QuickBooksRepair Open Quantity Repair Tool enables you to easily locate and repair the transactions causing verify to fail. Before running any repair utility we recommend making a backup or copy of the data file prior to running the repair tool as a safe practice to be able to restore your file to a known state in the event of an uncontrollable occurrence such as a power outage while running the utility.

Start by running a verify in QuickBooks to ensure that the current qbwin.log file has the problem transactions recorded in it. Then start the open quantity repair tool and select the qbwin.log file from appropriate installation of QuickBooks by highlighting the correct line in the list and clicking the process log button. If you have more than one version of QuickBooks installed the utility will list each one so you can select the appropriate log file. If you want to select a log file that is located in a different folder than the ones that are listed then click the process log file button without selecting any log from the list. That will open a browse window and allow you to select a file from any location of your choosing. When the log has been processed you will see the list of offending transactions in the list control window.

Make sure that you have QuickBooks running and open the data file you wish to work with. Click on the process transactions button and the tool will locate each transaction in QuickBooks and add a new lineitem to the end of the transaction with a period in the description field. If you have set a closing date in the file you will receive a warning if any of the transactions are prior to that closing date informing you that if there is also a closing date password the utility will not be able to adjust the transaction. Before clicking ok to continue you should temporarily switch to QuickBooks and remove the closing date password so the tool can edit the transactions as needed. After the transactions have been edited you may recreate the closing date password.

The first time you run the program, or until it has been registered, you will be prompted to register the software to fully enable it. If you have an internet connection available select the option "Register online now to get a license number" and then enter your name and serial number on the following screen. If you do not have an internet connection available on the machine you wish to run the program on then you may select the "I already have a license number" button and a screen will appear with your software installation ID. Provide this number to technical support along with your serial number and you will receive a license code to enter on the manual registration screen.

If this is the first time the tool accesses the file, QuickBooks will prompt you for permission to allow the tool access to the data file as indicated in the following screen shot. Select one of the options to allow the utility access to the QuickBooks file and follow through the screens until you see the Access Confirmation screen and click Done.

After you have granted access to the open Quantity repair utility it will process the transactions listed on screen. When the utility has finished editing the transactions run a rebuild followed by a verify to ensure that all the transactions have been corrected.
