Hello there, @Estimator1900. Thanks for getting back to us and providing clarification with us.
Yes, you're right. The steps provided by my MaryLandT's are applicable for QuickBooks Desktop for Mac.
For QuickBooks Desktop, you can follow these steps:
- Open QuickBooks Desktop.
- In the No Company Open window, select Create a new company.
You have two setup options:
- Select Express Start or Start Setup if you want to get started right away. You only need to enter your business name, industry, and business type and select Create Company File to create your company. You can enter this info later on.
- Select Detailed Start if you want to do a complete setup, so all of your info is in from the start.
Then, follow the onscreen steps to finish the setup. If you have an existing company file in QuickBooks, give your new one a unique name. This prevents QuickBooks from accidentally overwriting your data. Once done, select Start Working.
Then, you can check these articles for more tips and information about adding data and managing your new company file:
