(Xojo Plugin) QuickBooks - Read an EmployeeDemonstrates how to fetch the information for a specific Quickbooks employee. The employee information is fetched by Id. The employee Ids can be obtained by querying the employees and parsing the JSON that is returned. Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater. For more information, see https://developer.intuit.com/app/developer/qbo/docs/api/accounting/all-entities/employee#read-an-employee
