how to export or download/move all previous account's datas to a new account with different home currency

Hi, there is a QB Premier Plus account used for years. At first, I want to change the home currency of it as some reason, but the multicurrency is turn on and can't undo. So I attempt to create a new account which is the same with the original one, but only different in home currency. How to achieve it? Can I export, download or move all previous data from the original account and then input to the new account?  I need all data, including banks, transactions, general ledgers, purchase/sales orders, invoices/bills, expenses, customer/vendors and so on. I'm afraid there are some data losses and if I input all transactions manually, the task is so big. Looking forward for your help, thanks!

Thanks for reaching out to the Community, sx2024. I'd be glad to help you export your data to your new account.

 

Yes, it's possible to export your data from the old account and import it into the new one. However, you can use a third-party app to export other data that aren't on the list.

 

Here's how to export your data:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then select Export data.
  2. Enable the reports you want to export.
  3. Click Lists to export your Customers, Employees, and Vendors.
  4. Select Export to Excel.

 

To import it to your new account, kindly follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then select Import data.
  2. Click the dropdown button to select the data you want to import. 
  3. Hit Import.

 

Regarding the bank accounts, you can connect them again to your QBO account and download all the necessary transactions you want. But you can also manually download them using a CSV file.

 

In addition, you can run financial reports for you to track your expenses accurately and identify areas for potential cost savings.

 

Comment back to this post if you still have concerns about exporting your data. I'm here to help in any way I can.

Do you only need to disable the multicurrency setting in your QB Desktop file or convert your data to QB Online?
