Thanks for joining us here, @socius.

 

I'll share the steps on how you can export your QuickBooks Online data to QuickBooks Desktop. The migration process will take effect when you replace the URL of the browser with exportqbodatatoqbdt. In order to download the tool make sure you're using the supported browser. Please note that Internet Explorer and older versions of Safari are no longer supported.

 

 

Let me guide you how.

 

  1. Sign in to the QuickBooks Online account you want to convert using a supported web browser.  
  2. Highlight the URL and replace anything after /app/ with exportqbodatatoqbdt.  The URL should say https://cxx.qbo.intuit.com/app/exportqbodatatoqbdtXX  in the URL is a number, (don't edit the number), and select Enter on your keyboard.  Other support task links won't work during this process.
  3. You'll see an Export Overview Window.  Read the Export Overview. You can print it if you'd like. Tap Get Started.
  4. Tap the Download tool to download the QuickBooks Desktop migration tool.
  5. Once you download the tool, launch the tool to install it and select Next.
  6. Accept the terms in the license agreement and then Next,
  7. Choose Complete as the type of setup,  select Next and then Install.
  8. Click Finish

 

Details on the process are found in this guide: Export and convert your QuickBooks Online data to QuickBooks Desktop.
