(Excel) QuickBooks - Full Update an Employee

Demonstrates how to update any of the writable fields of an existing employee. The example first reads the JSON data for the employee, makes some changes, and then POST's the updated JSON to update the employee.

For more information, see https://developer.intuit.com/app/developer/qbo/docs/api/accounting/all-entities/employee#full-update-an-employee
