Sage conversion to QBO

I need to convert a Peachtree/ptb file saved in 2023 to QB for a bookkeeping client. I have tried with my QB Desktop and Online  - with no success.  For Desktop, it appears to require both softwares to be on same computer. For QBO, there were conversion errors through Dataswitcher, as conversion prep & changes are needed to Peachtree file but I have no way to open it.  I only have 30-day trial Peachtree/Sage software, which does not allow access to my computer files. Conversion is urgently needed.  Looking for recommendations or guidance.

 

Many thanks!

Sage conversion to QBO

Hello there, SPTSBookkeeper. It's my priority to help convert your data from Peachtree/Sage to QuickBooks.

 

Before anything else, can you share the exact error message you encountered to understand better the specific errors you experienced during the conversion from Peachtree to QuickBooks Online (QBO) using Dataswitcher. This information will help me provide more accurate guidance and recommendations to resolve the issue.

 

To successfully convert your data to QuickBooks Online, it is important to have active subscriptions for both Sage/Peachtree and QuickBooks Online. Therefore, please make sure that your subscription status is active in Peachtree/Sage before proceeding with the data conversion process.

 

If you choose not to activate your subscription and continue using the 30-day trial for Sage software, you can explore third-party applications that specialize in handling the conversion process. 

 

Here's how to find one that can help you facilitate a seamless transition from Peachtree to QuickBooks Online (QBO).
 

  1. Go to this link: QuickBooks Apps.
  2. You can select a specific category under the Categories section or utilize the search bar.
  3. Then, make sure to review the key benefits and FAQs.
  4. Once done, click the Get app now button.

 

Feel free to post again if you need further help or additional assistance while doing tasks in QuickBooks Online. I'm always here whenever you need a hand.

But I do not have access to Peachtree/Sage software to modify file. Also I looked at apps list but could not find a converter. More guidance please. 

 

P.S. I don't know how to deleted my similar request on community board.
