QuickBooks Desktop Add-on Installation Guide

Before Starting the Add-on installation, be sure to Allow API access to your eCheck account.

API for Direct Integrations, Mobile Checkbook & eChecks Add-ons

This setting can be found by navigating to your User Profile (log in, click the User Name in the upper right-hand corner and then select Profile from the drop-down menu).

Installing the add-on is easy!  Before you begin, make sure you are logged into QuickBooks™ as the administrator and as a single user*.

*Note: To check if you are in single user mode, in QuickBooks™, go to the file menu and look to see if it says “switch to Multi User mode." If so, you are in single user mode and ready to start installing the add-on.

1. Minimize QuickBooks™ and go to the DPX website.
   
   
2. The QuickBooks™ add-on for eChecks can be found under ADDITIONAL RESOURCES> Add-ons > QuickBooks™ Desktop. Click  the green download button.

3. Agree to the terms and conditions and click "next"

4. Click the blue "Download and Run" button - your Internet browser should prompt you to either Save, Open, or Run the file you are downloading.  Follow the instructions on your browser to start this process.  If you Save the file, please locate and run it.

5. Soon you will get an installation box, click "install."

6.  You will get a message that says “Connecting to the current company in QuickBooks™. QuickBooks must be running as single-user administrator the very first time to enable security settings to be established. Please also ensure that all QuickBooks dialog boxes are closed.”

We took care of that at the beginning, so click OK.

7. Now your QuickBooks™ icon will be blinking at you.  Click on that and you will see an application certificate.  On the application certificate, choose “Yes, whenever this QuickBooks™ company file is open”. Then click "continue."

8. QuickBooks™ will verify your choice, then Click “done”

9. To make sure you can always find the Add-on, Pin the add-on icon to your task bar by right clicking on the Red "PX" that is in the "Deluxe Enterprise Operations" folder.

At this point the add-on is installed and you are ready to write eChecks from QuickBooks™!
