Good to know that you're able to create a backup file, SunlightElec.

I'll now provide the steps on how to create the accountant's copy. Here's how: 

1. Go to the File menu, then select Send Company File.
2. Select Accountant's Copy, then click Client Activities.
3. Click Save File if you want to save it locally. Select Send to Accountant if you want to send the file using Accountant's Copy File Transfer (ACFT) service.
4. Select Accountant's Copy if you choose to save it locally. Then, enter the dividing date, then click Next.
5. Enter your accountant's email address, your name, and your email address if you've selected the second option (ACFT).
6. Create and reenter a file transfer password for security. If needed, you can also include a note to your accountant.
7. Select Send. QuickBooks will then close all windows.
