Usually you can't use a US version outside of the US.  At which address did you register your desktop version?

Thanks for joining this thread, @kimcarsten

 

I'll help ensure you're able to change your company details. 

 

It's possible QuickBooks isn't updated. This maybe the reason you're unable to see the Company Information.

 

Can I verify what QuickBooks version and year are you using? You can update the program to the latest release. By doing so, it will help download the latest features within the software. 

 

Once updated, let's perform the steps below: 

 

  1. Go to Company menu at the top. 
  2. Select My Company
  3. Click the Edit (pencil) icon at the upper right of the My Company page. 
  4. In the Company Information window, make any necessary changes. 
  5. Click OK

 

The steps above will help you update your company information, @kimcarsten

 

I'll be here if you have follow-up concerns about this or should you need anything else. Have a wonderful day ahead!

How do I change my company address and phone number?

Hello - 

 

We updated our phone number the correct way, but the old number is still showing up in our Email Templates. Any insight on why this isn't updating automatically?

Hi there, Buttercup376.

 

It could be that the template has been damaged or corrupted that's why the changes that you've made wasn't applied. Generally, when we encounter situations like this, we can repair the template to resolves most data integrity issues. Corruption can occur if QuickBooks shuts down or the connection to the QB Database Server is lost with a transaction open but no portion of it saved.

 

Before doing this process, we'll have to create a dummy template to test for a Corrupted Template or know if there's any data damage. You can follow the steps that I've listed below.

 

First, begin by creating a custom template within a QuickBooks sample company:

  1. Open a QuickBooks sample company
  2. Create a custom template similar to the template that's not working
  3. Test the template in the sample/test company to assure it works
  4. Export the new template to your desktop

Second, import that template into your company file:

  1. Open your QuickBooks Company file
  2. Import the custom template from your desktop
  3. Open a form that can use the test template
  4. Test to see if your issue still occurs with the test template

Then, we can now evaluate the test results:

  • If the issue does not occur with the test template, your actual template may be damaged.
  • If the issue still occurs with the test template, your template list may be damaged.

Please follow these steps in repairing a corrupted template:

  1. In the menu bar, select Lists, then choose Templates.
  2. Right-click on the damaged template, and then click the Templates down arrow at the bottom left.
  3. On the drop-down menu, click Duplicate.
  4. On Select Template Type, select the appropriate type of template and click OK
  5. Double click on the copy of the template – this opens the Basic Customization window.
  6. Click Advanced Customization at the bottom of the Basic Customization window.
  7. At the bottom, center of the Advanced Customization window, click the button Default. Please note that this will delete all of the modifications in the template and reset it to the original default format.
  8. Click OK on the Additional Customization window.
  9. Click OK on the Basic Customization window.
  10. Test the defaulted copy of the template. If these steps resolved the issue, recreate the template using the copy. But if the issue still persists, we may need to repair the Template List.

Here's how to repair the Template List:

  1. Resort the Template List.
  2. If the issue still is not resolved, Back-up your Company file.
  3. Use the procedure above to Repair a Corrupted Template for all of your custom templates returning each to their default state.
  4. Run the Rebuild Data utility after you return all templates to default.

I also recommend checking out this article to learn more about fixing common template issues in QuickBooks Desktop.

The "email" is not a template in the List Templates. It's some internally generated stock template.

How do I change my company address and phone number?

I'm using QB Premier Plus addition 2020. My company has a new legal address. We used to have assisted payroll but have not had that in over a year. When I try to change the legal address it says I have to contact assisted payroll but I don't know how. I have already submitted a form 8822-B. Please help

I appreciate you for joining the thread, Donna.

 

I can guide you on how to update the legal business address with QuickBooks Assisted Payroll.

 

With Assisted Payroll, Intuit won't change your legal address, you must submit the change directly to the IRS.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Download the Assisted Legal Name change form.
  2. Complete the form (signed and dated), then print it. If you're also going to change your Intuit account name which is your business name known to us, check the box under the new fax number field.
  3. Upload your completed and signed form.

 

The next time you process your payroll, your company name will automatically update in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

To learn more about updating account name, legal business name, and address for QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Standard, Basic, Enhanced, and Assisted, I recommend checking out this article: Update your business name and address for QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

On the other hand, if you need to connect with our Support Team, you can message an agent through this link: Assisted Payroll Messaging Team.

 

If you need to help with managing your business information like your EIN and subscription in your Intuit account in CAMPS, I also suggest opening these links:

How do I change my company address and phone number?

I am having a similar problem. Under "Company Information" -  my "Legal Information" is correct. Somehow in "Contact Information" my street address and suite have been removed. When I enter the information, I receive the following error: "You did not update your Legal Address. QuickBooks uses this information when it creates paychecks and payroll tax forms. The information needs to be current. Do you want to go back and update the information in the Legal Address section?" It becomes an endless loop. The result is my invoices do not have my complete address on them. My information is correct everywhere else.

Good day, @Elysha.

 

Thank you for sharing your concern in this thread. Let me help you fix this so you can update your contact information.

 

There might be data damage in your company file. This is the reason why you keep on getting the error message when updating your information.

 

Let's run some basic troubleshooting steps to clear this out. To start, update QuickBooks Desktop to its latest release. Doing this will keep your software up-to-date and fix some minor data issues.

 

  1. Go to the Help menu and select Update QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Click the Update Now tab. 
  3. Select Get Updates to start the download.
  4. When the download finishes, restart QuickBooks.
  5. Once prompted, accept the option to install the new release.

 

If you're still getting the same result, I recommend running the Verify and Rebuild Data tools. Verify Data self-identifies the most commonly known data issues within a company file. On the other hand, Rebuild Data resolves most data integrity issues that were verified. 

 

Additionally, you can browse through this article: Help Articles. This link contains a lot of information and steps that you might use in the future. 

 

Let us know if you run into issues again or if you have other questions about QuickBooks. I'm just one click away to assist you. Have a great day.
