How We Can Help

If you’re considering migrating to QuickBooks Online but don’t know where to start, we can help you through the process. Here’s what to expect during the conversion:

Prepare for the migration

Backing up QuickBooks Desktop data is an important first step. This ensures that if any data is lost during the transfer, you have it stored safely in your desktop version.

Identify what won’t convert

Most of the data will transfer to QuickBooks Online, however, there are some items that need to be manually re-added.

Troubleshoot common issues

There are plenty of resources available that will walk you through troubleshooting migration issues. Rather than trying to figure it out on your own, our experts can do this for you which saves time and eliminates the guesswork.

Run and compare reports

After the migration is complete, we compare reports from your QuickBooks Desktop version and your new QuickBooks Online system. This helps us identify any discrepancies and solve issues.

Review accounts and settings

We confirm that the list of accounts, company settings, payroll and tax information, and every detail matches. Once the process is complete, you can begin to use QuickBooks Online and input new transactions.
