Quickbooks Desktop

You are using QB Desktop 2020 UK version with a non subscription license, correct?

Intuit's UK team told us yesterday that the notice only applies to subscription licenses. We have to wait until June 1 to prove their claims. We have asked our clients to start creating backup files from next week as a precautionary measure.

Let me share some details with you, Julia.

Yes, you can continue using your QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2020 as long as your license is standalone.

And if you want to migrate to QuickBooks Online, you still need to update your QBDT to the latest version. The latest version also has a free trial that you can upgrade.

Consider migrating to QuickBooks Online (QBO) as a solution. Your account balance will stay the same, but there may be differences in features between the two programs. You can try out QBO for free with our 30-day trial to see if it's right for you. Before doing so, be sure to create a backup of your file to avoid any data loss.

Once you're ready to transfer your company data, refer to this guide for assistance: Prepare your QuickBooks Desktop file for migration to QuickBooks Online.

Additionally, this article aims to assist in acquainting you with the key features following the transition to QBO.: Get started with QuickBooks Online.

We are here to assist you with any questions or concerns regarding the discontinuation of QuickBooks Desktop or any other QuickBooks-related inquiries. Please stay safe.
