Quick books uses dynamic ports such that you should configure incoming rule based on the application that listens making any port the service uses will be allowed in.<br />
<br />
Check the qb service main, not the version based helpers and grant it rights on the incoming firewall..

Hi I'm trying to get Quickbooks Enterprise running on A Server 2019, but the database server manager reports error with the Windows firewall. &nbsp;I have added the ports to the allow list in the firewall, but It is still being blocked. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I opened 8019, 56728, 55378-55382 but no go, I also ran file doctor that usually finds the problem but it didn't find anything.<br />
<br />
Thanks all.
