Critical Update Release by May 31st?

I keep getting a notice that says:

"Critical Update Released.  To enjoy uninterrupted access to your Quickbooks, you'll need to update to the latest version before 31st May"

 

I currently have QB Desktop Premier Plus Nonprofit Edition 2023 and am asking if I really need to update to this new version already and what will happen if I don't.

Critical Update Release by May 31st?

Thanks for reaching out to this forum, DA2625. I can shed detailed information when managing data updates and program releases about QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

 

As QuickBooks commits to developing straightforward financial tools, updates and upgrades are needed for security issues to improve compatibility and program features. With that, all QBDT 2021 versions, including access to live support, critical fixes, security updates, and other Intuit programs that integrate with the product after May 31, 2024.

 

You can check out this guide for more detailed information: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy.

 

Since you're currently using the QBDT Premier Plus 2023 version, you don't have to worry about this critical update release for this year. You can continue utilizing the program with uninterrupted access to your data files and process financial transactions in your account.

 

On the other hand, if you want to consider upgrading your desktop program to the latest version in the future, you may continue using our add-on services efficiently.

 

Additionally, you can secure a backup of your company file to save accounting data and restore them anytime in the future.

 

I'll be available on this thread to provide additional assistance for any added queries when managing your account. Keep safe, and have a great day ahead!

Thank you so much!  We would prefer to update to avoid additional expenses this year as long as there will be no interruption in access or functionality.
