Question

Will QuickBooks Pro 2016 function.

I do not process CC with Innovative, I have a 3d party plugin that does that. Nor do I care about automated bank downloads as I can input that manually. No payroll, no nothing beyond the basics in QB such as accounting and printing reports.

 

Do I really need to upgrade? Can I not just go about my (small) business?

 

Thanks for any insight,

I'm sure it will function fine.  I am thinking the same thing.  When you say input your banking transactions manually do you mean by getting the QBO file from the bank yourself and uploading it?  This is my question.  If this will still work I don't need to spend the money as I don't use any other frills either.

Ok, so you're saying the QBO file I get from my bank will no longer upload as it used to when I open it?

Thanks.

Hello Mia77,

 

Thank you for posting here in the Community. Allow me to step in and help provide information about unsupported QuickBooks Desktop version.

 

If you're using the QuickBooks Desktop 2016 version, the access to add-on services will be only until May 31, 2019. Please note that uploading of transactions using a QBO file from your bank will also be unavailable.

 

For more insights on what will happen to discontinued QuickBooks Desktop, I'm adding the article I recommend on this (scroll down to What are the affected 2016 services?):

 

QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation (Disco) policy and upgrade information.

 

The only option you can try is importing transactions using the IIF file format. I'm adding an article below for the available data you can import, and it includes the detailed steps as well:

 

Export or import Intuit Interchange Format (.IIF) files.

 

You can keep in touch with me here should you have further questions. The Community always has your back.
