Yes, you're correct, @BarbaraMc. So many of us working remotely these times, and the benefit of having a laptop is a plus. 

 

In addition to Fiat Lux - ASIA's response, QuickBooks isn't IP address specific, so you can use it anywhere.

 

You can install QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) Pro 2021 on your laptop. You’ll want to make sure the laptop has the correct system requirements.

 

To move your QBDT, you'll want to install it on your laptop and restore a backup copy of your company file.

 

Install QuickBooks:

  1. On the computer where you want QuickBooks Desktop installed, download the installation files or insert the CD.
  2. Install QuickBooks Desktop as you normally would. See Install QuickBooks Desktop for more detailed steps.

 

To back up and restore your file:

  1. Create a backup of your file on the old computer.
  2. Copy the backup file to your new computer:
    • using a flash drive or other external device; or
    • through a network, if the computers are connected.

       3. Restore the backup on your new computer.

 

Well done! Keep me posted if you have any additional questions about installing QuickBooks or anything else. Anytime I can help.
