Hello Userdalrympledecorat, 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

So it all depends on if you need to submit VAT to HMRC or if you need to submit a self-assessment to HMRC. 

 

If you need to submit a Self-assessment to HMRC then you will need the self-employed Quickbooks product. 

 

If you submit VAT to HMRC then you can keep and use the simplestart package you ahve taken out already.
