I recently converted from Desktop to Online. I imported my data. Can I wipe this data and import again? Can I import again with risk of duplicating data?

I decided to finish 'year end' activities and start a new year fresh Online. I have entries and changes to Desktop that need to be imported to Online. Can I import again without causing any issues?

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community. I'll share information about importing duplicate data.ValarieA.

 

When you import, the file will replace and overwrite any existing information in QuickBooks Online.

 

For complete instruction, visit this article: Delete your data and start over in QuickBooks Online

 

Also, you can export some of your lists to Excel so you can import them easily to the new company. Take a look at this article for more details: Move your lists to QuickBooks Online.

 

Please browse through these articles below about general matters in importing data and other related topics.

 

Feel free to visit the Community again if you have any clarifications or questions. I’ll get back to answer them for you. Have a great day ahead.

If you are using QBO SimpleStart or your account > 60 days old, you should open a new blank account and cancel the old one.
