WHS QuickBooks 2011

WHS QuickBooks 2011 is a Windows Server Solutions add-in for use with Windows Home Server 2011, Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials, or Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 Essentials. It provides individual user-level access to Intuit’s QuickBooks application from your server.

WHS QuickBooks 2011 can run a server-installed copy of QuickBooks from any computer just as if it were running directly on the local computer. QuickBooks runs in its own fully resizable window with its own entry in the taskbar. Its popup windows are redirected to the local desktop, its notification area icons (if any) appear in the local computer’s notification area, and the local computer’s drives and printers can be redirected to it; making a completely seamless “QuickBooks” experience for your end-users.

With WHS QuickBooks 2011, a single server-side installation of QuickBooks can be accessed by up to 10 users of your network (up to 25 when used with WSBS2011e or WSS2008R2e). Each user is provided with full access to their very own instance of QuickBooks (note that multiple user access to the same Company file is fully supported when QuickBooks is running in its multi-user mode along with a valid multi-user license that has been purchased separately from Intuit). They’ll be able to organize their business finances, create invoices, pay bills, track sales & expenses, and manage payroll from any Windows-based computer on your network, from almost anywhere using your server’s built-in Remote Web Access website, or from Mac, iOS, Android, and Windows PC/Mobile computers and devices.

Installation Notes

Before installing the WHS QuickBooks 2011 add-in, you should install a licensed copy of QuickBooks directly on your server (it may also be installed on the server any time after the add-in has been installed). It can be any 2009 or later Windows-based version/edition of QuickBooks.

Once you have QuickBooks installed, you can go ahead and install the WHS QuickBooks 2011 add-in (just as you would any other Windows Server Solutions .WSSX add-in). NOTE: WHS QuickBooks 2011 requires that the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 or higher be installed on your server. If necessary, you can download the .NET Framework 4.5 or higher installer package from here: Installing the .NET Framework

After the WHS QuickBooks 2011 add-in has been successfully installed, open the server Dashboard application, click on the new “WHS QuickBooks” icon in the navigation pane, and choose which users you want to allow access to WHS QuickBooks 2011.

WHS QuickBooks 2011 can be used completely free of charge for up to 21 days (some features are not available during the evaluation period). To continue using WHS QuickBooks 2011 after that, you will need to purchase a license and register the add-in. Click the shopping cart link, located in the sidebar of this page, to purchase a license for WHS QuickBooks 2011. Upon receipt of payment, you will be sent personalized registration information along with detailed instructions on how to register the add-in.

Additional Information (advanced)

WHS QuickBooks 2011 works with your server just as it comes straight out-of-the-box. It does not install any of the Remote Desktop Services (RDS) server roles on your server (e.g. Remote Desktop Session Host, etc.). Rather, it utilizes the underlying “Windows Server Solutions” (WSS) functionality of your server in order to work its magic. Your server remains in its default “Remote Administration” mode (as opposed to it being placed in “Application Server” mode as it would be when using RDS), and multiple concurrent remote connections to the server can be enabled using the add-in’s “multiple simultaneous connections” feature.
