Transfer Quickbooks 2007 to Quickbooks Online

I have Quickbooks 2007 and recently purchased a Quickbooks Online subscription. How do I transfer my company file?

 

I backed up up my file and downloaded a trial of Quickbooks Desktop 2022, but my 2007 backup file is QBB and the 2022 trial is only accepting QBW or QBA files.

 

Thanks in advance.

You need to upgrade your file on QBD 2011, 2015, 2019 and 2022 respectively before migrating your data to QBO US version.

Transfer Quickbooks 2007 to Quickbooks Online

Hello, gmeco. 

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. I like to reiterate what Fiat Lux- ASIA said since 2007 to 2022 is a long jump, and Intuit has a 3-year lifecycle. You need to upgrade it first to the nearest version to prevent any damage to your company file. You can download the trial versions for 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2022

 

I recommend creating a backup first before upgrading it. Here's how: 

 

 

  1. First, switch to the single-user mode by going to File at the top and selecting Switch to Single-user Mode.
  2. Go back to the File menu, and click Backup Company.
  3. Choose to Create Local Backup.
  4. On the Create Backup window, select Local Backup and click on the Options button.
  5. Tap the Browse button and hit where you want to save the file.
  6. Click on OK.
  7. Run through the Backup Options window and tap the appropriate action, and press OK.
  8. In the Create Backup window, click on Next.
  9. Select whether to save your backup now, schedule future backups, or both.
  10. When you’re done, hit Finish

 

Once done, you can start migrating your file to QuickBooks Online. You can use this article for the steps: Move your QuickBooks Desktop file to QuickBooks Online
