Does anyone know how to switch from the Quickbooks Simple Start to Quickbooks Self-Employed?

Thanks for using QuickBooks Online (QBO), @jennymichelle5.

 

The option to switch your QuickBooks Online (QBO) Simple Start to QuickBooks Self (QBSE) is not available. If you wish to use QSBE, you'll want to sign up for a new QBSE account.

 

You might want to check our QBSE Plans & Pricing page to learn more about the features that QBSE offers.

 

Also, check this article that can guide you in choosing the right version of QuickBooks.

 

You can always contact us anytime you have other concerns or questions. I'll be around to help. Have a great day and take care always!

If you have to open a new QBSE account, make sure to click the Buy button to get the discounted price for up to 6 months. If you purchase from the trial account, you have to pay the regular price.

What if we have started a Simple Start quickbooks account and have found Self Employed is the right option for my business. Can my invoices and data be imported from Simple Start into Self Employed??

No. You can only utilize the bank feeds. Learn this reference to decide

Hello Amotien!

 

It's good to know that you found the QuickBooks Self Employed the right tool for your business.

 

The QuickBooks Online (QBO) plans, like the Plus, Essentials, and Simple Start versions have a different structure compared to the QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) plan. For this reason, we're unable to convert your data. However, you can connect your bank account to download the closed transactions, and that way, you only need to enter the open invoices.

 

You can refer to these articles:

We have more references for QuickBooks Self-Employed on the main support page. You can also navigate through our test account.

 

If you have follow-up questions, you can always go back to this thread.
