Every year I've had to use the online wizard to export data to desktop trial version and then to TurboTax but the only option this year is export to Excel-what can I do?

Hi kk1987,

Let's try exporting the data on a private window to isolate if the system will prompt you the different ways to export the information. You can use these keyboard keys to open one:

• Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Safari: Command + Shift + N

If it works, you can go back to a regular browser and continue working on the file there. 

You also have the option to switch to a different browser like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, or Safari.

Once exported, run a Balance Sheet and a Profit and Loss report to ensure that the numbers match. Make sure to set them on an Accrual basis and for All Dates in both program

Take a look at this article for future reference: Customize your Profit and Loss report.

Let me know the result after exporting your data file. I'll be around.

Another option, utilize a bookkeeping app to integrate with your QBO and extract the TXF file. You don't need to install QB Desktop.
