Thanks for checking in with us, todjenhog.

We can import and export Intuit Interchange Format (IIF) files to and from QuickBooks Desktop for Windows and Mac. The IIF files helps you import and export your lists and transactions to and from QuickBooks Desktop. For QuickBooks Desktop 2019 and later, here’s how to import your lists and transactions with the improved IIF tool. With the use of IIF files, you can do the following:

• Export lists from one QuickBooks company file and import them into another
• Import lists or transactions into QuickBooks from another program
• Export list to and Import data from the QuickBooks Pro Timer.
• Share data between different QuickBooks editions and platforms (such as Pro, Premier, and Enterprise, or between Windows and Mac)

To learn more about this one, see the Tasks you can do with IIF files article. Also, instead of starting from scratch, you can transfer info to and from QuickBooks. This makes it easy if you need to convert, upgrade, or create a new company file. For the steps and details, check out the Import and export data in QuickBooks Desktop article.

Feel free to visit our Bring in your data page for more insights about importing your data.

I'd like to know how you get on after trying the steps as I want to ensure this is resolved for you. Just reply to this post and I'll get back to you. Take care always.
