How do I delete all previous figures from 2020 and get ready to start my new year in April, I stopped using this in 2020 but now need it for vat thx

I know a way on how you can delete previous data of your company file, @rimmer-n-sky-com.

Let me discuss the details so you can achieve your tasks.

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can delete all of the data in your file if it is been active within 90 days of signup. If more than that, the option you can take is to cancel your subscription and create a new company. Here's how:

Delete the data of your 90-day old account 

1. Login to your QBO Company.
2. Next, edit the URL to include /purgecompany. Example: Change https://app.qbo.intuit.com/app/homepage to https://app.qbo.intuit.com/app/purgecompany
3. You'll be routed to the screen that will provide a summary of the items to delete. Type YES to delete the data. 
4. Then, click OK.

Reset the data of your account that is more than 90 days old

1. In your QBO account, go to the Settings icon and choose Account and Settings.
2. Next, click Billing & Subscription.
3. Then, select Cancel Subscription.
4. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the process.
5. Once finished, you can now create a new account. 

You'll know about this process by visiting this article: Delete your data and start over in QuickBooks Online.

I've also got here a compilation of articles and guides that you can browse if you need handy references.

I would recommend opening a new blank QBO account

then you may have 2 ways to migrate data from 2020

1. Utilize a migration tool
