I got to know that Quickbook is discontinuing add on services and support services in some version of Desktop after May 31, 2023.

Just wanted to know if Quickbook is discontinuing all add on services on all version of Desktop or on just Quickbook Desktop 2020 version.

I use Quickbook Desktop Pro 2021. Do I have a reason to worry?

Hi there, @dhavalkakadiya. I'm pleased to share more information about the QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) discontinuation policy.

You don't need to worry about your subscription. With QBDT Pro 2021, you'll still enjoy the add-on services and be able to subscribe to live technical support or any of the other Intuit services that can be integrated with QuickBooks.

These are the only products affected by the discontinuation after May 31, 2023:

QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2020
QuickBooks Desktop Premier 2020 (General Business, Contractor, Manufacturing & Wholesale, Nonprofit, Professional Services, and Retail)
QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions 20
QuickBooks Premier Accountant Edition 2020
QuickBooks Enterprise Accountant 20
QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2020

I have quickbooks desktop 2021 and can not submit payroll through my enhanced payroll subscription. So the answer you received is incorrect

Again - everyone in this thread is complaining about the new release. We don't want a qbooks subscription. We want the old desktop single user license with payroll support. And we don't want QB Online.

Simple question: I still have QB 2020 for Mac. I don't do any online banking. I download QBO files monthly and open them in QB. I now find that the files won't open. I don't see how that could be a result of discontinuing 'online banking'. Is anyone familiar with this?

I only use QuickBooks' check register to indicate expenses and deposits. That's all I use it for. Will I be able to continue to do that without having to upgrade?

Let me provide some information about the discontinuation policy on QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), Ellie.

Yes, you'll still be able to use the QuickBooks check register without upgrading to the newest release. However, you may have to access your account or company file without utilizing the internet to prevent the system from asking you to upgrade your QBDT version.

If you are using an outdated one, you may experience performance issues. I suggest performing basic troubleshooting steps to resolve these. Additionally, you can utilize the QBDT Tool Hub to address common problems and errors, such as company file issues, network problems, installation issues, and various error codes.

I'll add this article for additional info: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy.
