Example SOAP Request and Response for the QuickBooks Web Connector sendRequestXML() Method

The very first call top sendRequestXML() for each session will send you a strHCPResponse from QuickBooks. It will look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

			</strHCPResponse>
			<strCompanyFileName>C:\Documents and Settings\Keith Palmer Jr\Desktop\Accounting\QBW\Test Company 2.QBW</strCompanyFileName>

			<qbXMLMajorVers>5</qbXMLMajorVers>
			<qbXMLMinorVers>0</qbXMLMinorVers>
		</sendRequestXML>
	</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Every subsequent request will leave out the strHCPResponse data.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

			<qbXMLMajorVers>5</qbXMLMajorVers>
			<qbXMLMinorVers>0</qbXMLMinorVers>
		</sendRequestXML>
	</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Your response should be a valid SOAP response with the qbXML portion encoded as a SOAP value. The example below shows a qbXML RecievePaymentAdd request being sent back to the QuickBooks Web Connector.
