Account management
I appreciate your time joining in on this thread, Peter521.
I'll share some information about the process, and what you can do to import the data.
You can only move your QuickBooks Desktop file within 60 days after signing up to QuickBooks Online. Extending the process is currently unavailable.
On the other hand, you can do the following:
- Cancel your current subscription and subscribe to a new account.
- Export your QuickBooks Desktop lists and import them to QuickBooks Online.
- Manually record the transactions in QuickBooks.
If you consider canceling the account and getting a new subscription, you can check out the links provided by my colleague Jovychris_A. Before doing so, please read this article: What happens to my QuickBooks Online data after I cancel?.
To export the lists from QuickBooks Desktop, you can follow the steps here. Then, import the information in QuickBooks Online by following these steps:
- Go to the Gear > Import data.
- Select the list you want to import.
- Click the Browse button ang choose the CSV file saved from your computer.
- Follow the on-screen steps to map the fields.
Here's a sample screenshot for a visual reference:
For manually recording your transactions in QuickBooks Online, the step by step process is included in this guide: Manually add transactions to account registers in QuickBooks Online.
Please let me know if you need more help with the process or you have other concerns. I'll be right here to guide you. Stay safe!
