How to Turn On the Trace Log

You can Turn on Detail Trace from Start >> All Programs >> QODBC Driver for use with QuickBooks >> Configure QODBC Data Source.

Go To the "System DSN" Tab, Select "QuickBooks Data" DSN & click "Configure."

Navigate to the "Message" Tab & enable the "Detail Tracing (Slow)" option.

Switch to the "Advanced" tab & Select "Add XML to Detail Trace Log."

Apply the changes. Close all the applications. ( If any of the application is already connected, QODBC will not start logging ) Connect again.

Messages Tab

      Messages allow you to review message logs from QODBC regarding errors and issues communicating with QuickBooks, clear these messages, and review messages produced by the QuickBooks qbXML SDK interface.

Instructions for Message Options

      Detail Tracing (Slow) creates a trace log of exactly what QODBC is doing in the background with the application and is used for debugging purposes. Ensure the log is turned off when not needed, as these logs can use up large amounts of disk space.

      Display Optimizer Status Panel will display the progress of the optimization of the data. This is especially helpful on large data files being reloaded in their entirety.

       When selected, Display Driver Status Panel shows exactly what QODBC is doing when accessing the QuickBooks data and provides a good assessment of speed using optimized and non-optimized data.

       Note: Be sure to uncheck this option when you no longer need the tracing log turned on, as it will increase and slow QODBC performance.
