Summary
When you receive an error in the connector in relation to Payment Type Mapping, you will need to map the new payment in the Connector. Meadow will have created the payment type in their system, and the steps below will assist in mapping that item to QuickBooks.
There is work to be performed in QB prior to setting up the Connector. Before attempting to map the Connector, you may need to create a QuickBooks Bank/Cash Account if you don’t currently have one you want to use and you may want to create a new Payment Method within the Payment Method list.
Two common ways to confirm that the payment method mapping has NOT been completed are in the Log File or via a pop-up during processing.
How to Access Payment Mapping
In order to access where you’ll begin the process of mapping any payments old or new, you’ll click File>Settings and Entity. Then click Payment Items to pull up the payment mapping window.
In the new window that opens you will see a list of all mapped Payment Types. First you will not see any new Payments to map. Click Refresh List to pull in any unmapped Payments.
Meadow will not pop-up that any new items have been added. You will need to scroll to the bottom of the list to see the new Payments, and mapping needed.
Mapping Meadow Payments
Meadow populated the missing payment type, but now you will need to map the payment to the QB Payment Method, QB Deposit Account, and QB Credit Memo Payment Item, and QB Offset Item. However, QB CM Payment Item and QB CM Offset Item as a standard are selected to Total Sales Offset.
To save the changes you made, you will need to select UPDATE on BOTH the Payment Type window and the Main Settings window, which have been highlighted below.

Main Settings Update:
Your Payments are now updated and you can return to the main window and attempt to resync.
