Note for QuickBooks Enterprise Users

When you have added multiple QuickBooks companies in StarShip, and you want to switch between them, follow these steps.

  1. In order to switch companies, you must first exit out of the StarShip Client.
  2. Open the company file of the company you want to switch to in QuickBooks.
  3. Once the company is open in QuickBooks, relaunch the StarShip Client.
  4. Due to a limitation of QuickBooks, you will need to click Cancel on this dialog until StarShip connects to the new company. You may need to click Cancel multiple times.
