I want to delete everything that I put in. It was just a practice run. How do I delete it all?

We have different ways to delete your data in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and start over, 1lindabauer. I'd be delighted to walk you through how.

 

Beforehand, would you like to start over with new books? If so, cancel your current company to start a new one. If you're using the QBO Simple Start version, please follow the steps below on how:

 

  1. Sign up for QuickBooks Online.
  2. Enter your user ID and password. You can use the same user ID and password as before.
  3. Optional: If your previous company had payroll, add Payroll in Step 2 of the sign-up process.

 

Otherwise, you can purge your data and start over if you're a new customer using the QuickBooks Essentials, Plus, and Advanced versions. You can follow the detailed process to delete data if your books are less than 60 days old section, on this reference: Delete your data and start over in QuickBooks Online. Once done, you can start your books from scratch.

 

However, if you mean to delete specific transactions in QBO, can you provide more details about it? This can help us get on the same page and provide an accurate resolution.

 

Moreover, you can visit this resource if you still need help figuring out how to use QBO: Getting Started in QuickBooks Online.

 

We appreciate you using QBO to manage your business. Feel free to reply below if you still have questions about deleting your data. We're here to lend a helping hand.
