No just QBOA in US just want to switch to QBO Simple Start on US. I've tried exporting but not sure which list I exactly for all my transactions. Somehow when my bookkeeper was switching and importing from another program she used QBOA.  Now just trying to be on QBO Simple Start to have books shared to my current accountant.  I was trying Rewind but don't seem to be able to move between 2 diff accounts.
