This was somewhat helpful. However, if I retire, and no longer need an active program I does not make sense that I can not access a Desktop program in at least a read only version. Bookkeepers and accountants are generally required to keep records for 7 years. It appears you will wipe out our ability to access old records when a subscription has expired in six months. Does this mean I have to go back and print out hard copies of everything I have done? I would also have no ability to upload past records to an accountant if there was an IRS audit?
I wanted to have a Desktop version that I owned. I understand that some features can not be supported for ever, but access to information is crucial for longer than 6 months.
I am so very very disappointed in Quickbooks. Going to online and expecting Quickbooks clouds to be forever secure is quite an ask. My own little computer is much easier to secure than these big cloud centers. I am only dependent on a local electric source.
That is the rant, how do suggest we handle getting information that is 6 years old for IRS audits?
