Fishbowl: "Accounting system configuration not valid"

AccountingAccounting module settings or sync operation

What it means

Fishbowl attempted to access your accounting system during an operation (typically when syncing data or posting a transaction) and found the configuration invalid. The connection details, credentials, or integration settings are either incomplete, corrupted, or the link to your accounting system has become disconnected.

What to check

  • Verify your accounting system is reachable and current (QuickBooks company file open, Xero account accessible, etc.)
  • Check Accounting settings for missing or invalid connection credentials
  • Confirm the accounting system link hasn’t been disabled or requires re-authentication
  • Look for any recent account permission changes or authentication token expiration
