Hello, millstreetprinting.
We can utilize the Toggle feature to change the industry type. However, please know that this feature is exclusive in QuickBooks Desktop Premier, QuickBooks Accountant (QBA), Enterprise Solutions Accountant (QBESA), and QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions (QBES) versions.
This feature enables you to change your QuickBooks Desktop edition from one specific industry to another.
For QuickBooks Desktop Premier or QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions to another edition is located under the Help menu.
For QuickBooks Accountant or QuickBooks Enterprise Accountant to toggle to another edition is located under the File menu.
However, if you're using QuickBooks Premier (non-Accountant), the option to toggle the edition is unavailable. You have to reinstall QuickBooks for Windows using a clean install to change your industry type. This process replaces the QuickBooks system files on your computer. Thus, it allows QuickBooks to add new install files later when you reinstall.
If you're getting started in managing your QuickBooks Desktop, we can take a look at this guide to help you add your list and more: Get started with QuickBooks Desktop.
Drop a comment below if you have any other questions about changing the industry edition of your QuickBooks. I'll be happy to help you out.
