Hi Safetyglassco.
The method for obtaining a validation code varies based on where you made your purchase. Let me share some information about this with you.
If you purchased QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) online, the validation code can be found in the email receipt or confirmation message sent after your purchase, along with the license and product number.
On the other hand, if you purchased a physical copy, the validation code is printed on the packaging or included in the installation documents provided in the box.
Please note that Intuit no longer provides verification codes for products that are no longer supported and were not activated during their supported lifecycle. To activate the software, upgrading to a supported version is required.
Additionally, QBDT is currently supported and available only in the U.S. and Canada regions.
If you are in the mentioned region and recently purchased the product but are unable to locate the validation code or are experiencing activation issues, I recommend reaching out to our live support team. They can assist you with the activation process and provide any necessary information.
Let us know if you need further assistance.
