Integrate QuickBooks, Peachtree, or Sage 50 Accounting with AmeriCommerce:
Installation Prerequisites:
To maximize your fully-functional free 10 day trial of CartSpan, you should have the following in-place before installation:
1) Your shopping cart should be configured to the point where you have one or more orders available for download. Also, the API (Application Programming Interface) is not always, by default, automatically enabled for all Shopping Carts. The Shopping Cart API is the mechanism by which CartSpan comunicates with the Shopping Cart. CartSpan enjoys a special relationship with AmeriCommerce in that subscribers of their 'Silver' package or higher do not pay extra for API access. You will need to inquire and verify that the API for your AmeriCommerce cart is active and ready to accept communications from the CartSpan product.
2) You should have version 2011 (or later) of Peachtree Accounting or Peachtree's higher-end Quantum or QuickBooks version 2012 (or later) of Enterprise, Pro, or Premium accounting packages. CartSpan will work with the trial versions of these products if you are interested in testing end-to-end integration before making a purchase.
STEP 1: Download and install Peachtree (or QuickBooks)
Peachtree offers a 30 day trial of its Premium Accounting product. Be sure to install all features including the Crystal reports options:
STEP 2: Download the appropriate version of CartSpan
Full Installation
-
If installing for the first time, or upgrading to support a newer version of Peachtree, download the appropriate full installation packge below. Note that you will need to uninstall any existing installation of CartSpan before you attempt a full installation. Your application configuration and licensing file will remain unaffected by the uninstall process.

Simply extract the appropriate executable file(s) to the directory ...\Program Files\Cadence Software\CartSpan\ (overwriting the existing files).
STEP 3: Download pre-configuration file for AmeriCommerce
