Edge Error: The ticket parameter is invalid (QuickBooks Posting Error)


The Ticket Parameter error message received when  is a problem where permissions to update QB has been lost.

The most common solution to this as listed on Intuit's website is to Rebuild the QB Company File, with detailed steps on doing so listed below.  In addition to rebuilding the QB company file, we also have included instructions on how to compact the EDGE database, as this may help as well.

First Steps to Resolve Error Message

REBUILD THE QB COMPANY FILE

First, make sure everyone is out of QuickBooks.
Then in QuickBooks:

  • Click File > Utilities > Rebuild Data
  • Click File > Utilities > Verify Data

COMPACT THE EDGE DATABASE

  1. Get everyone out of The EDGE.
  2. Go to the server and open The EDGE.
  3. Click File > Compact Database.
  4. Wait for the Done box.
    NOTE: DO NOT interrupt this process. It may take several minutes to complete which is normal. While it may look frozen, it is not.

If the QuickBooks Error - "Ticket Parameter is Invalid" persists after rebuilding the QB Company File and Compacting the EDGE database, a more aggressive approach may be needed to resolve it for good. 

Here are two additional methods that have proven successful: Reset the Integrated Applications and/or Uninstall/Reinstall QB.

  1. To Remove / Reset the EDGE Updater permission in the QB Company file:

    • Open QB File in single user mode:
    Click EDIT > PREFERENCES > Integrated Applications
    Click COMPANY PROFILES
    Click and REMOVE the EDGE UPDATER

    • In EDGE:
    Click ADMIN > QB > SETUP QB INTEGRATION
    Click the drop down for POS CUSTOMER, which should trigger QB to ask for permission

    Click the QB Box that will be blinking
    Choose ALLOW, as logged in as "admin" (regardless of how you normally login)
     

  2. And the LAST resort option:
    Uninstall/Reinstall QuickBooks completely.
