Setting a new company

I'm here with some instruction that makes setting a new company a breeze, @keswicktyler.

 

If you want to create a new company file for your new business, follow these easy steps:

 

  1. Open QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. In the No Company Open window, select Create a new companycompanyfile.JPG
  3. Choose Express Start or Start Setup (if you want to get started right away and enter the other info later) or Detailed Start (if you want to do a complete setup to enter all of your info).
  4. Follow the onscreen steps to finish the setup. Note: If you have an existing company file in QuickBooks, give your new one a unique name. To prevent QuickBooks from accidentally overwriting your data.

 

Here's the article that will provide more info about the process: Create a QuickBooks Desktop company file.

 

If you want to set a new company file and enter data from your old file, please see this article for the detailed steps: Start a new company file with data from your existing file. 

 

Also, I got you this great source where you can find guide articles that will help you manage your books in QuickBooks. To start, head to our QBDT help articles page at this link. This includes topics such as reconciliation, track income, and expenses, run reports, etc.

 

Feel free to post here again if you have further questions about setting up a new company in QuickBooks. I'm always here to help you. Have a good one.
