Is there anyway I can re-set my quickbooks and start fresh?

Hi susanpennino1,

 

I'm here to help you reset the data on your QuickBooks account.

 

There are two ways how you can do it. If its tenure is less than 60 days, you can delete the company. Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in
  2. On the URL bar, delete all the text after the last / and enter purgecompany
    For example:
    Before: https://...qbo.intuit.com/app/homepage
    After: https://...qbo.intuit.com/app/purgecompany
  3. Enter Yes to delete.
  4. Select Wipe data.

 

Once deleted, you can start anew.

 

If the account is more than 60 days old, you'll have to cancel it and start QuickBooks from scratch.

 

I've added this reference as your guide to the process: Cancel or delete QuickBooks.

 

Also, you can check out this article that has lists of different topics that help manage your QuickBooks file in the future: QuickBooks Q & A.

 

You can always count on me whenever you need help with the account. Take care

If you are using QBO Simple Start, you should open a new blank account instead.
