Hello there, @lrhmail451.

 

I'm here to help with exporting or copying your Chart of Accounts. With QuickBooks Enterprise we have Utilities that assist with tasks like these. They would be Export and Import. The first step is exporting the Chart of Accounts.

 

Step 1: Exporting a List

  1. Go to File menu, then select Utilities
  2. Select Export, then Lists to IIF Files.
  3. Select the list you want to export,(which is Chart of Accounts) then select OK.
  4. Browse the location where you want to save your file and select Save.

 

Now that we have copied the Chart of Accounts, we can import the list.

 

Step 2: Import the list

  1. Sign in to your company file as Administrator.
  2. Switch to single-user mode.
  3. Go to the File menu, then select Utilities.
  4. Select Import, then IIF Files.
  5. Import the Chart of Accounts.

 

I've also added an article to help you export your old data to your new data file in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to leave a message in the comment section. I'll be happier to help. Take care, and have a good day.
