Extract customer file in .qbb form

To clarify, we are using QB premier pro desktop - contractor's edition.  We are not using QB online.

Hi there, @invoicesdmc. I appreciate you adding some clarifying information about your product.

I recognize the importance of exporting a customer file in the desired format. I'm here to share some details about this matter. 

QuickBooks Desktop allows you to back up your company file in .qbb format. However, this file is a backup of the entire company file, and there's no option to extract the specific transactional data for a single customer. With this, the best way that you can do is to extract the file into a PDF or Excel file.

Additionally, if your client insists on providing data in .qbb format, you should clarify the limitations of this file format and share the alternative options for extracting and sharing specific transactional data.

Furthermore, here's an article about the different ways to transfer information in QuickBooks: Import and export data in QuickBooks Desktop.

If you have other concerns besides extracting data in QuickBooks, please let us know by leaving a comment below. We'd be more than willing to lend you a hand. Stay safe!

Maybe you can use the deleter tool to remove all customer lists except one and delete all transactions except those related to the customer. Otherwise, you can purchase a 3rd party service to do so.
