Hi all,
I have had a company for a few years but I only started using Quickbooks in 2019. Before that it was pretty much only Excel. I am being told that the reports I have on Quickbooks are not useful for tax purposes because I have to enter all the information from previous years into Quickbooks. Is that true? I do not mind enter consolidates but do I have to add every single transaction? Are there some guidelines on how to do this?
Thanks!

To be sure you'd need to migrate older transactions for tax purposes, I recommend talking to your accountant. If you don't have an accountant, you can find one on our Find-a-ProAdvisor website
