QuickBooks error message: The transaction is empty.

Occurs: When trying to import a Receive Payment (customer payment) type transaction into QuickBooks.  QuickBooks returns an error: The transaction is empty

Cause:
 When importing a receive payment type transaction into QuickBooks, if the Total Amount column is not mapped or blank QuickBooks thinks that the total is 0.00 and therefore empty.
