Common QuickBooks Online Export Errors
Customer Export Errors:
- Email Error (ErrorCode:2210)
What you’ll see: “Email Address does not conform to RFC 822…”
How to fix:- Replace any underscore “_” in your customer’s email (e.g., change emailaddress@domain_name.com to emailaddress@domainname.com).
- Export again—now it will work!
- Parent/Child Error (ErrorCode:900 or Error 6130):
What you’ll see: “parent can not be child” or similar message.
How to fix:- Check the Address Name and Display Name for the customer—they can’t be exactly the same.
- Make one slightly different and re-export.
- Billing Relationship Error:
What you’ll see: “Cannot Change Who Customer Bills With…”
How to fix:- There are payments tying this customer and its “parent” together.
- Delete linked invoices or payments between the parent and this customer, then try again.
Service Item Export Errors:
- Invalid Category (ErrorCode:2500):
What you’ll see: “Categories cannot be used…”
How to fix:- Deactivate/delete any “category” items that imported as Service Items in RazorSync.
- Create NEW Service Items if needed.
- Bundle Service Item (ErrorCode:9331):
What you’ll see: “Invalid bundle id..."
How to fix:- Remove any bundled items from your RazorSync invoice before exporting.
- Bundles in QuickBooks import as one item—keep them as individual lines in RazorSync.
- Colon in Service Item Name (Error Code: 700):
What you’ll see: “Parent Reference Invalid: Select a Category”
How to fix:- Remove colons “:” from your Service Item name—the colon means “category” to QuickBooks.
- Adjust and re-export.
- Inactive Product/Service (ErrorCode:2500):
What you’ll see: “assigned to this transaction has been deleted…”
How to fix:- Make sure the Service Item is active in RazorSync.
- Activate the item and export the invoice again.
Invoice Export Errors:
- Memo Too Long (ErrorCode:2050):
- If your Invoicing Memo is huge, cut it down and export the invoice, then paste it back if you really need it.
- Nothing Exported (“No Invoices were created”):
- Make sure RazorSync is connected to QuickBooks Online (check “connection ticket”), especially if your QB account was suspended.
- Duplicate Invoice Number (ErrorCode:6140):
- In QBO, check “Account and Settings > Sales > Custom Transaction Numbers.” Toggle the setting so it aligns with how you want numbers assigned (if you got this error, just change it to the opposite!).
Payment Export Errors:
- Missing Customer Reference (ErrorCode2020):
- If you’re exporting addresses as sub-customers, and you see this error, try removing the Billing Address Name before exporting payments.
- Tax ID Error (Error Code 620):
- Uncheck “Invoice has been exported to QuickBooks” for both Invoice and Payment.
- Run QuickBooks sync again.
Accounts & Tax Errors:
- Time Card Export “No Records” Error:
- The employee’s display name in RazorSync needs to match QuickBooks exactly. Edit the name in RazorSync if needed.
- Tax Code Error (Invalid InvoiceLineItem SalesTaxCode “Tax”):
- On your Invoice, make sure every item is marked as Taxable or Non-Taxable—don’t leave as “Not Set.”
- Tax Exemption Reason Error (ErrorCode:6000):
- If a customer is not taxable, mark them as taxable (current workaround).
