The QBCFMonitorService service terminated unexpectedly. (Running Payroll)

[cbs_IT-ksw]

Windows Event 7034 when running payroll.  Description: "The QBCFMonitorService service terminated unexpectedly."  When the error occurs a cascade of errors continue in the Event Viewer.  

It is unknown why the error occurs, when it does run then Quickbooks is slower running on the server AND workstation.  Batches are unable to be processed when exporting back to Quickbooks.  The status of the ServiceTitan Web Connector is green the whole time.

Temporary remediation seems to be (on workstation) close out ServiceTitan webconnector app, close Quickbooks (if not locked up completely), close out QBCFmonitorservice.exe if running on workstation or server.  On server, Restart Quickbooks services (or run Quickbooks Database Server Manager and run Scan Folders> Start Scan [usually it finds that QBCFMonitorService is not running]).  Then on workstation, start the ServiceTitan Web Connector app, then 5 seconds later start the Quickbooks app (starting it after 5 seconds gets a visible QB that can be logged into instead of the hidden one that runs in the background).   

If left unattended, then the ServiceTitan/Quickbooks connection seems to corrupt the Quickbooks database and a restore is needed every 2 months.
