Get in touch with a QB support team at 1-855-856-0042 to resolve the issue with their assistance.

Reasons

QBDT displays this error code when it fails to connect with the company file and run it on the software. The reasons your accounting software falls prey to issues while accessing a company file are given below-

  • There is a discrepancy between the company file and the transaction log file, which causes issues when the software tries to run the file.

  • QuickBooks cannot retrieve the company file from its location due to insufficient folder permissions.

  • QuickBooks struggles to run its background processes or open a company file if its program files get blocked by security software.



Solutions

This error keeps you out of the business data in the company file until you take the actions required to prevent the issues. The techniques mentioned below are effective in terminating this error and using the data file for business accounting-

Solution 1- Recreate the Transactions log file before scanning it using the DBSM

The transaction log is a duplicate company file that stores all the financial data as the company file. It is also used for data recovery when the company file gets damaged or corrupted. Your QBDT can also display this error code if a discrepancy between both files causes issues while opening the company file. You can deal with the issue by recreating the transaction log file and scanning it in the Database Server Manager to register the updated file on the network. Use these steps-

  • Go to the QuickBooks folder on your system using File Explorer or the search panel.

  • Right-click the Transaction log (.tlg) file inside the folder and select the Rename option.

  • Type ‘.old’ as an extension to the file name without making changes to its original name.

  • Launch QuickBooks DBSM after saving the file and go to the Scan Folders tab.

  • Click Browse and locate your QuickBooks folder.

  • Tap Start Scan to register the recreated .tlg file on the network.

  • Open the company file when the DBSM stops scanning the folders.

Move to the next solution if problems occur while using the methods.



Solution 2- Give QuickBooks Admin rights to prevent it from getting blocked

You can also run into the error when QBDT fails to connect with the company file due to a lack of folder permissions or when Windows Firewall blocks the software functions. The following methods will help you grant special access to QuickBooks-

  • Go to the QuickBooks launch icon (QuickBooks.exe) stored among its other program files.

  • Right-click the QBDT icon and tap the Run as Administrator option.

  • Open the company file when QuickBooks opens in admin mode.
