Hello, @elle-wellplayedf.
As a healthcare professional, I understand how you value the security of the data entered in QuickBooks. You can purge your data if your QuickBooks Online account is less than 60days from the sign up date. This way, the system deletes all the possible data entered into the company and you're unable to restore or reverse them. Here's how:
However, if your account is 60 days old or older, you'll need to cancel your account or subscription to delete the QuickBooks account.
Once completed, you'd received an email notification containing the cancellation details. You can read through this article for more detailed steps: What will happen if I cancel my subscription?
Now, you can login to your Intuit account and request for the complete removal of your data from our servers.
You'll receive an email with information about what will happen next. This can take a few days and up to 45 days. You will also see an option to cancel the request within 72 hours. Meanwhile, you can refer to these articles to help you understand better what options you have control and the consequences when you choose to delete your personal data:
Thank you for taking your time in trying to use QuickBooks in managing your income and expense transactions. Keep us posted here if you have any other questions or concerns. I'll be here to lend a hand.

I received a message that said "The page at https://c19.qbo.intuit.com says:
this operation is allowed only for QuickBooks online plus, QuickBooks Online Edition, or QuickBooks online essentials companies."
I have QuickBooks easy start. Can you help me?
Hello, elle-wellplayedf.
Thanks for clarifying your current subscription. I have details about the purging process and your data removal.
As what the message pointed out, the purging feature is available for Essentials or Plus version. For QuickBooks Easy Start (or Simple Start) users, you'll want to cancel your subscription instead. Your data will be deleted from the system completely after a year.
To cancel your subscription:
More information can be found here: Cancel your QuickBooks Online subscription or trial.
If you need to get a backup for your data, you'll want to export it to Excel. This article can guide you through the process: Export reports, lists, and other data from QuickBooks Online.
If there's anything else you'd like to take care of before canceling your subscription, you can check out our articles for guides and details: QuickBooks Online articles list.
We're still with you in every step of the way. If you have more questions for QuickBooks Online, I'm here to help.
I need to delete my payment
Thanks for joining the thread, 2107129d.
I know a way to delete a customer's payments in QuickBooks Online. I'll show you how.
On the other hand, you don't need to delete if the payment applied to the invoice is coming from a download bank transaction. What you need to do is to undo it so it'll be back to the Banking page under the For review tab.
Here's how:
Once done, the payment transaction will go back to the For review tab. From there, you can reapply it to any of your open invoices if necessary.
Additionally, I've included these articles to learn more about managing downloaded bank transactions for future reference:
You can post again if you need further assistance with the customer's payments. I'll be around to help you.
LMAO!! So the support "help chat" person says I need to reply here to notify you guys that the delete option isn't working for my account. Lovely airing my dirty laundry here. So yeah, canceling all my subs(done), deleting my data after a decade with quickbooks? Quickbooks has jumbled all my invoices up and mixed up my line items within each invoice as well as deleted my line items I had saved for future use and also my logo. I am struggling to find a reason to stay with some company that cant even protect my data.
So, yeah trying to delete every last iota of info this shady company has on me, but it is giving me an "hmmm that didn't work." message. For all of the options in the data privacy login. I have tried from multiple browsers and laptops and internet connections. No go on anything. Same error.
