QuickBooks Database Server Manager (QBDBMgrN) is a tool that allows multiple users to access a company file stored on a server in a multi-user network setup. It manages the connection between the QuickBooks application and the company file by creating .ND (Network Data) files, which help identify the location of the company file on the server.
The tool needs to be installed on the server computer where the company file is stored. It runs as a background service and must be active for multi-user mode to function properly. If the service stops running, it can lead to errors like H202 or QBDBMgrN not running. To ensure smooth operation, the firewall should allow QBDBMgrN.exe and the tool should be kept updated alongside QuickBooks Desktop.
