You are wanting to make applesauce from oranges.  An iPad is nothing more than a large format phone. It is a tablet, not a full computer. QB Desktop in both PC and IOS versions has minimum machine and operating system specs and neither is directly compatible with the other. QB PC cannot open QB MAC and vice versa.

 

Your easiest solution however IS REMOTE DESKTOP. I recommend Splashtop. Yes you will pay some nominal monthly fee but you ido not after installing splashtop or other remote app have to install anything else. All you need do is ensure your desktop is always powered on and able to be woken remotely,  which is an easy setting. Guaranteed you can access your QB for Windows from your is based iPad or absolutely any internet connected device. It will even work with a 1st Gen ipad! I have done so.
