OwnerIDList

The list of Owner IDs in the requests. An ownerID refers to the owner of a data extension:If OwnerID is 0, this is a public data extension. For example, if you intend to use this with a custom field that is supported in the UI, you must use an owner ID of 0.If OwnerID is a GUID, for example {6B063959-81B0-4622-85D6-F548C8CCB517}, this field is a private data extension defined by an integrated application. Note that OwnerID values are not case-sensitive, meaning that if you enter an OwnerID value with lower-case letters, the value will be saved and returned with upper-case letters. When you share a private data extension with another application, the other application must know both the OwnerID and the DataExtName, as these together form a data extension’s unique name.
IGUIDList      

AssignToObjectList

This list contains one or more type enums that specify the object types that can use the data extension definition. To add a type to this list, you invoke AssignToObjectList.Add on the data extension def add object, specifying the object type, as in the following snippet that adds two types to the AssignToObjectList: MyDataExtDefAdd.AssignToObjectList.Add atoDepartment MyDataExtDefAdd.AssignToObjectList.Add atoVendor

IResponse

Queries for the specified data extension defintion or set of definitions.
       

StatusCode

A number that corresponds to a statusSeverity and statusMessage. Five status codes relate directly to signon messages: 2000, 2010, 2020, 2030, and 2040. For details about these and other statusCode values that can be returned, see the statusCode table on the Error Codes page.
IQBIntType     Y

StatusSeverity

One of the following values: INFO The request was completed, and the results are consistent with what your application expected. WARNING The request was completed, but the results might not be consistent with what you expected. ERROR The request was not completed. No data will appear in the server’s response after the statusMessage.
IQBStringType     Y

StatusMessage

A user-readable explanation of the success or error condition that is indicated by the statusCode. For details about the statusMessage values that can be returned, see the “Explanation” column of the statusCode table on the Error Codes page.

OwnerID

OwnerID refers to the owner of a data extension. A value of 0 means the data extension is a custom field visible and usable within the QuickBooks UI. Any other non zero value that is a valid GUID means that the data extension is a private data extension. Usually you would keep your application’s GUID confidential to prevent other applications from accessing your data extensions. But if you want to share data extensions with another application, the applications need to use the same GUID. In this case, each application could use two GUIDs, one for shared data extensions and one for confidential data extensions. (An application can have any number of GUIDs.) When you share a data extension with another application, the other application must know both the OwnerID and the DataExtName, as these together form a data extension’s unique name.
IQBGUIDType     Y

DataExtName

The name of the data extension. If this is a custom field, DataExtName will be visible as a label in the QuickBooks user interface. Also because OwnerID and DataExtName together make the data extension unique, and because custom fields all have the same OwnerID of zero, the DataExtName must be a unique value among existing custom fields. In contrast, the DataExtName for private data extensions must be unique only for the specified OwnerID GUID.
IQBStringType     Y

DataExtType

b>DataExtType The type of the data extension.
IQBENDataExtTypeType     Y

AssignToObjectList

This list contains one or more type enums that specify the object types that can use the data extension definition. To add a type to this list, you invoke AssignToObjectList.Add on the data extension def add object, specifying the object type, as in the following snippet that adds two types to the AssignToObjectList: MyDataExtDefAdd.AssignToObjectList.Add atoDepartment MyDataExtDefAdd.AssignToObjectList.Add atoVendor
