Thanks for getting in touch with the Community, bk1959.

If you have one QuickBooks account and close it, you'll have read-only access to your data for one year. Afterwards, you'll need to presubscribe to access the data.

In the event you have multiple accounts, at least one with your same login credentials should remain active to have read-only access indefinitely.

Here's how to close an account:
 

1. Sign in to the Intuit Account Manager.
2. Click Products & Billing, then choose your company name. This will take you to the subscription page.
3. Find which product you'd like to cancel and hit Cancel subscription.
4. You'll see a multiple choice survey on why you're cancelling your subscription. Once you've filled it out, press Continue to cancel.
5. The next page will be detailing product benefits, and your last day you'll be able to use the subscription.
6. Click Continue to cancel.
7. Select Got it.

If you're within a billing period you last paid for, you'll be able to resume your subscription and stay on the same billing by selecting Resume subscription. In the event your account is suspended, you'll need to resubcribe and activate it.

I've also included a detailed resource which may come in handy moving forward: Cancel your subscription or trial
