Trouble with E-mail Validation - Part 2

Some Quickbooks users with Gmail accounts have reported having issues with Webmail Authorization:

Gmail considers Quickbooks to be a "Less Secure App (LSA)".  If you use Gmail, you can turn on a feature called "Less Secure App Access":

- Open Chrome from your Citrix Workspace (not from your local machine).

- Logon to your Gmail  account.

- Click on the Manage your Google Account button.

- Navigate to the Security section.

- Scroll down to the "Less secure app access" section.

- Click on "Turn on access (not recommended)".

- Click on the Send button to receive a verification code.

- Enter the verification code and click the Next button.

- Turn the switch on to allow the less secure apps to run.

- Click the left arrow to return to the Security screen.

- Now start Quickbooks and add your e-mail account.   How?

- Now return to the Gmail security screen and allow the security exception that will come from Quickbooks.
