2. Press Ctrl + 1 to open the Product Information window.
3. Select Ctrl + B + Q, then choose OK to display the export window.
4. On the export window, click Get started.
5. Sign in as an admin to your QuickBooks Online company.
6. Select Choose online company, then select the QuickBooks Online company you want to replace with your company file.
7. Click Continue.
8. If you track inventory in QuickBooks Desktop, click Yes to bring them over, then specify the as of date. 
9. Enter “Agree” in the text field, then click Replace.
10. Press Yes, go ahead and replace the data, then select Replace.
