Indeed, they either don’t really care about customers that pay little and upgrade as they grow or they don’t have enough skilled people to develop a solution, either way just shows how in 2023 a company can be so closed minded and ignore such basic functions that they hurt themself by looking like this to their own customers 

Hi Rolandtgs,

I know the inconvenience of not having the option to migrate from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online.

With that, I recommend sharing this product suggestion with our developer's team. They'll review your idea and will collate additional propositions from other customers.

Here's how you can share your ideas:

1. Click the Gear icon.
2. Under PROFILE, select Feedback.
3. Enter a few words.
4. Click Next.

As a workaround, you may look for a third-party application that can help achieve this goal. While I'm unable to recommend one, you can browse our Apps page to scan some apps that work best with your company.

Furthermore, I've added this article that has an overview of how to get started with QuickBooks Online: Get started and adjust settings after you sign up for QuickBooks Online.

I'm always around whenever you have concerns with your QuickBooks account.
