Encountering QuickBooks error h101 can be frustrating as it generally appears when trying to access company files located on another computer. Here’s how you can fix this error:
Verify Hosting Settings: Ensure that only one server (the one hosting the company files) has the hosting option enabled. Workstations should be in multi-user mode and not host the files.
Check Firewall Settings: Sometimes, firewalls block communication between computers. Adjust your firewall settings to allow exceptions for QuickBooks.
Use QuickBooks File Doctor: Download and run the QuickBooks File Doctor tool. It can diagnose and potentially fix network issues that might be causing QuickBooks error h101.
Configure Network Files: Check the.ND files which enable QuickBooks to access files in a network. If they are corrupted, deleting and rescanning them using the QuickBooks Database Server Manager might help.
Set Proper Services: Ensure that QuickBooksDBXX and QBCFMonitorService are running and set to automatic.
