Export QBO for accountant

I'm using Quickbooks Online. How do I export my data to give to my accountant. I am relatively new to Quickbooks. My impression is that I have to export some type of QB file (QBO? QBB?). I'm not seeing any obvious way to do that.

 

My account mentioned sending him the QB file. But is it different for Quickbooks Online?

You may invite your accountant to access your account. She/he will need to open a QBO Accountant account to access your QBO account later.

Export QBO for accountant

I dont regard this as "Solved". My accountant does not want to log into my account in any form - this is not best practice - they want the QBO file exported, period. All you provide is an excel export which is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Does your accountant need to migrate your data to another accounting app or else?
