Excel 2019 Compatibility with QB Desktop Pro 2019

Does anyone know if Excel 2019 is compatible with QB Desktop Pro 2019? I am about to upgrade to Desktop Pro 2019 and want to upgrade to MS Office 2019 at the same time. I thought I should check and make sure the two are compatible first. I found a thread that says QB 2017 & 2018 are not compatible with Excel 2019 but I can't find anything that says if QB DT Pro 2109 and Excel 2019 are compatible. Thanks!

    Hello MandyAZPCP ! You can try Business Importer Desktop app. It imports excel doc from any version of MS Office into any version of QuickBooks Desktop since 2012. Hope, it will help you!

    Hi there, MandyAZPCP.

     

    Thanks for joining the Community. I'm here to share some information about the QuickBooks Desktop 2019 system requirements.

     

    Microsoft Office 2010 and Office 2013, 2016, and 365 (including Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013) on both 32 and 64 bit are currently supported in QuickBooks Desktop 2019. However, Office and Excel 2019 are currently unsupported.

     

    For more in-depth information about the system requirements, you can check out this great article: QuickBooks 2019 and Enterprise Solutions 19.0.

     

    This should point you in the right direction. Leave a comment below if you have other questions. I'm always around to help.

    Intuit - are you ever going to follow thru with your promise for Excel 2019 support for QB Pro 2019?  Its been more than a year that you've been saying its in development.  Most of the Office versions you say are supported are no longer supported by Microsoft so you are recommending users use non-secure software which is appealing for a financial services company.

     

    Is QB Pro 2020 even support Excel 2019?  Your marketing documents allude that it does but many forum posts say that it doesn't.  I bought QB Pro 2019 because I was told that Excel 2019 support was eminent and that was over a year ago so I'm not buying anymore Intuit products until you follow thru with your promises.  I hope the community follows suit.

     

    The lack of this support costs me and many of my fellow users hours of lost productivity per week.

     

    Intuit - I implore you to support your loyal community before you lose us! I know I'm close to finding an alternative and will move my dozens of clients as well.

      Now its August 2020 and Intuit still doesn't support Excel 2019 - this is ridiculous.

       

      Excel 2013 is no longer supported by Microsoft and Microsoft is scheduled to end mainstream support for Excel 2016 on October 13, 2020 so Intuit is expecting us to use unsecure versions of Excel for our financial data - COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

        I sure hope this works. I have excel desktop 2019 and QB 2020 and they won't talk to each other. even though I have the latest version of each and intuits compatibility chart indicates they are compatible. I sure hope business importer works as advertised. The price is right. I looked at Cdata solution too and they want almost $500 a year and does way more than I need. I just need to export reports for heavens sake. I guess I should have stuck with Office 2010!
