Common issues associated with enabling TLS 1.2
Explaining about TLS 2.1

The IT field has boomed in the last few years, and thus the developing technology has also led to the need for more security and stability. That is where TLS 1.2 comes into the picture. Modern applications are developed to match these security protocol standards. While it is highly useful, there are certain problems associated with it, such as QuickBooks TLS error, TLS handshake failure etc. 

 

Are you facing a QuickBooks TLS Error? You have nothing to worry about, just reach out to an expert and they will fix it for you.

 

Problems User Face When Enabling TLS 1.2

The latest generation system comes equipped with TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3. But old workstations need to enable it on their system. This is the list of problems users face while enabling TLS 1.2 on their system:- 

 

  1. Unsupported Platforms

Apple OS X and Windows devices managed with on-premises MDM are not supported to work in the TLS 1.2 environment.

 

  • FIPS Security Policy enabled

Secure Channel (Schannel) negotiation can force your system to use TLS 1.0 if the FIPS security policy setting is enabled for either the client or the server. Even if you disable the protocol in the registry, TLS 1.2 is not enabled. To investigate, turn on Secure Channel event logging and look through the system log for Schannel events.

 

  • Failure of Configuration Manager client communication

If the Configuration Manager client fails to communicate with site roles, check to see if Windows has been updated to support TLS 1.2 for client-server communication via WinHTTP. Distribution points, management points, and state migration points are all common site roles.

 

  • Failure of Service Connection Point

Update the.NET Framework and enable strong cryptography on each computer if the service connection point fails to upload data to SCCMConnectedService. Remember to restart the computers after you've made the changes.

 

  • Configuration Manager Console Fail To Sign in to Azure

If the Azure Services onboarding dialogue box immediately fails after you click on Sign in, update the.NET Framework, and enable strong cryptography when trying to create applications in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Remember to restart the computers after you've made the changes.

 

  • An Error Arise and Reporting Services Point fails

Check the SRSRP.log for the following if the reporting services point doesn’t configure reports:- 

      • The underlying connection was closed
      • An expected error occurred on a receive.

 

Follow these steps to fix this issue:-

  • Update .NET Framework, and enable strong cryptography on all relevant computers.
  • Restart the SMS_Executive service after you install any updates.

 

  • Configuration Manager Console Show Intune Onboarding Dialog Box

Update the.NET Framework and enable strong cryptography on each computer if the Intune onboarding dialogue box appears when the console tries to connect to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin centre. Remember to restart the computers after you've made the changes.

Conclusion

So these are primary reasons why users may face difficulty enabling TLS 1.2 on your system. You must have it activated on your system as a lot of online services for various applications would be hindered if not done so. We also hope that this helped you understand the reason for Quickbooks TLS Error. If you are still unable to resolve your issue, reach out to an expert and they can guide you step by step to fix it.
