8.6. QuickBooks Export Seems Very Slow?

When exporting transactions to QuickBooks, it seems to hang between selecting the transactions I want to export and assigning the customers to the transactions.  What's up?

This is due to the time required to pull over the QuickBooks customer list from QuickBooks into EstiMate. Unfortunately our hands are tied at the moment to speed this up; however, be patient and the list will come over.  On our development system (P4 3 GHz with 2 GB RAM) 4,500 customers takes about 4 minutes total.  This should scale to your customer list so you can approximate the time that will be required.

We are definitely looking into ways to speed this up but haven't found a good way yet.  This article will be updated when we do.
