QuickBooks SDK 6.0 for U.S. editions of QuickBooks 2007

As of Date: 2006-07-13

QuickBooks SDK 6.0 Feature List  

QuickBooks SDK 6.0, scheduled to be released in the fall of 2006, will include a number of new features requested by IDN member developers. Of course, QBSDK 6.0 will also support all parts of our previous versions of the QuickBooks SDK, so software built using QBSDK 5.0 or earlier can be easily migrated to QBSDK 6.0.
