Hello there, magazine in Suffolk. I understand that transitioning to QuickBooks Online (QBO) might be a bit challenging, especially if you're used to traditional pen-and-paper methods. Whether you're new to QBO or have been using it for a while, here are some steps you can take to reset your account.
If you're a new customer, you can purge your data and start over. However, if you've used QuickBooks for a while, you need to create a new company. The process for resetting your account depends on your company's age and subscription level:
- If you've been using QBO for less than 90 days, you can purge your data. This option is available for QuickBooks Online Advanced, Plus, or Essentials users only. If you use QuickBooks Online Simple Start, you'll have to cancel your current subscription and start a new one. Please note that purging your data will delete all data in the company file, and you won't be able to restore it.
- If you've been using QBO for 90 days or more, you can't delete your data. Instead, you'll have to cancel your subscription and start a new one.
Before you proceed with purging your data or deleting your account, it's important to be cautious. If you choose to start over, you may want to keep your current lists by moving them to a new file.
