Import Excel To QuickBooks - Data Conversion Service
It can be intimidating to convert your accounting system. There may be a lot of data, depending on how long you've been in business, and Excel and QuickBooks are not a perfect match. You will have a QuickBooks conversion specialist working with PNATC who will examine your unique scenario, identify the QuickBooks items you'll require, and collaborate with you to create a phased conversion plan. Additionally, we have full-time programmers for QuickBooks who will handle the export, cleaning, and import of your historical data. Following the conversion, your team will receive thorough training on the new system, and we'll assist you in setting up productive procedures that let you make the most of your new system.
Step 1 - Needs Assessment
First, access the company file that you need to export to QuickBooks Online by logging in to QuickBooks Desktop with the administrator account.
Step 2 - QuickBooks File Setup
If you are using Desktop Pro or Premier, you will need to navigate to the Company menu and then click the Export Company File to QuickBooks Online option. In order to access Desktop Enterprise, you will need to enter Ctrl+1, then Ctrl+B+Q.
Step 3 - QuickBooks Training
To switch over to the new software, training the staff is essential. To ensure your team is knowledgeable, we'll conduct training. PNATC is well-known for its training; we assist all of our clients with training and offer instructional videos. Even if they are not our clients, we want every QuickBooks user we assist to succeed.
Step 4 - Review The Books
We will determine whether you require more information or monthly reports in order to operate your firm. We'll thoroughly check to make sure we've imported everything you need because frequently we don't know which information is crucial until we no longer have access. We'll transfer any more files from your previous system to QuickBooks if they need to be migrated.
Step 5 - System Maintenance
We'll give you some time to use QuickBooks before checking in to see how things are. We'll strive to stop any problems before they start. Additionally, we'll retrieve any features or data that were left. In order to keep you on track, we also recommend continuing monthly/quarterly closing services. Our aim is to ensure you use QuickBooks to its full potential.
