System Requirements

Application:

Client-side plug-in:
FileMaker Pro 19.6 - 2024 for Windows
FileMaker Pro 19.6 - 2024 for Mac

Claris Pro for Windows
Claris Pro for Mac

Server-side plug-in: 
FileMaker Server 19.6 - 2024 for Windows

QuickBooks® Online (QBO)*

Platform:

Windows® 10/11 Enterprise and Pro Editions (64-bit only)
macOS 13 - 15
Windows Server 2019 and 2022

Mac version: Apple Silicon and Intel chipset compatible.

The client-side plug-in may work with earlier versions of FileMaker or operating systems, however, these are no longer supported.
The server-side plug-in may work with earlier versions of FileMaker Server or operating systems, however, these are no longer supported. At this time Claris Server is Linux based and is not compatible with Windows or Mac plug-ins. Therefore, the plug-in is not compatible with Claris Server at this time.

The server-side plug-in comes with a free copy of the single user (client-side) plug-in for development purposes.

As of FileMaker 19, all plug-ins need to be 64-bit. If using older plug-ins or older versions of FileMaker, the plug-in bit version that you use depends upon the FileMaker Pro bit version you have installed. FileMaker and the plug-in need to be running in the same bit version.
