Does this add-on allow for products already in Quick Books to transfer to Zen?
No, this is just a payment module for zen cart. If you have a quickbooks merchant account, this might be for you.
Are you aware of any modules that will pull from Quick Books Point of Sale and populate the store?
No, that would be too easy:D!
You can export all your items to an excel sheet and then use the Easy Populate mod to bulk upload items. But still, the exported list will need work and reformatting. And this would be an issue for another thread.

There are a few "middleware" products which will do exactly that. They are not free, and it introduces a new middleware application to maintain. Look into Atandra's "T-Hub" and Webgility. They both might do what you are looking for - and both support QB POS up to version 8.0 with Zen Cart.
Wow, I stand corrected. I assume one still has to do some "manual" work to it as QB product listings most likely do not match zen store category structure nor are any picture references in QB. Maybe the export and Easy Populate is not that bad after all as it is a free solution. I guess now you do have options. The knowledge of the zen community is the real power!!
QuickBooks POS does incorporate pictures as part of item detail (and departments as well). Those middleware products are pretty capable, and use the QB API to sync items and orders, including on hand quantities.

How nice to have the thread so quiet! That means that the add on is working and stable for users. It appears that the module has been downloaded 100+ times since these updates - so it is getting good use it would seem.
I got this module set up with the AppID, Application Login, and Connection Ticket. My settings are Enabled = True, Desktop, SSL Certificate (i left this blank for testing), Testing = False (it is going into a live QBMS account), CVV2 = True, Payment Zone = none.
Whenever I try to process my own credit card for $0.04 it gives meThe QB computer has QBMS enabled and the QBMS SDK installed, what else do I need to check to make sure this works?Code:Your credit card has been declined. Please try another card or contact your bank for more info.
First place to look is in your merchant service account settings. Have you "enabled" web store for your account?
PS - SSL Cert will always be blank for desktop model. That is used for "hosted" model.
