How to use Quick-books online Minor-version >= 4 - php

Question

I have done integration with Quick-Books online using quick-books sdk from this link: https://github.com/consolibyte/quickbooks-php.
Everything works perfectly except one issue.
The issue is, when I retrieve Items from quick-books, it returns "Non Inventory" items as "service".
I have read different topics which state that I will have to shift to minor version 4 to resolve the issue.
But I can't find a way of how I can make my current SDK to use minor version 4 or above.
Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

For those who have similar issue, I have found a workaround and sharing it for others to benefit if they want:
open the file quickbook_sdk\QuickBooks\IPP\Service.php
Find the following function protected function _query($Context, $realmID, $query)
Replace the following code
$return = $IPP->IDS($Context, $realmID, null, QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_QUERY, urlencode($query));
With
$query = urlencode($query);
$query .= "&minorversion=4";
$return = $IPP->IDS($Context, $realmID, null, QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_QUERY, $query);
Note: I was querying Items, so this workaround may only be beneficial in case of getting data through query.
UPDATE:
if you want to add / update items to QuickBooks online with item type NonInventory, You need to modify the following code in your quickbook_sdk/QuickBooks/IPP.php file.
Find function named function _IDS_v3 and inside that function find the following condition
if ($optype == QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_ADD or $optype == QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_MOD)
{
$post = true;
$url = $this->baseURL() . '/company/' . $realm . '/' . strtolower($resource);
$xml = $xml_or_query;
}
Replace it with
if ($optype == QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_ADD or $optype == QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::OPTYPE_MOD)
{
$post = true;
$url = $this->baseURL() . '/company/' . $realm . '/' . strtolower($resource);
$xml = $xml_or_query;
$url .= "?minorversion=4"; // this is the only addition
}

For those who use the official php sdk from Intuit, in the root folder you'll find the file sdk.config. Edit <minorVersion>3</minorVersion>.

Answer 3

If you go to the official PHP SDK:
https://github.com/intuit/QuickBooks-V3-PHP-SDK
You will see that you can use:
$dataService->setMinorVersion("4");
to set the minor version you want to use before making the HTTP call.
