Get 50% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months*
Buy nowI have a client who accidentally created a new QuickBooks account, even though I had already set one up for them. They chose a lower-cost subscription, whereas the account I created used a more expensive plan. I sent my account to the client for them to pay for the subscription, and in the meantime, I entered months of transactions to get their file set up for the past eight months.
Now, my account is read-only. I need to find out if there’s a way to switch my current account to the cheaper subscription they want and then delete the new account they created.
Hi, VP.
Yes, you can switch your current account to the cheaper subscription, but first, make sure the plan includes all the features you need. Additionally, the duplicate account your client created can be removed by canceling its subscription. I’ll provide you with the necessary steps to guide you through the process seamlessly.
Note: Review and learn what happens when you downgrade a QuickBooks Online subscription. Your client may need to turn off certain features before you can downgrade them.
Here’s how:
Note: If you don't see the Downgrade option, you can't downgrade your customer's subscription.
Important: If your client downgrades from QuickBooks Online Advanced, they may need to remove users. Each subscription level has a different user limit.
For guidance on canceling the subscription your client created, please refer to this article: Cancel your subscription.
