How would I go about doing a "factory reset" on my quickbooks account? I really messed it up experimenting and it'd be a lot easier to just start from scratch.

Yes, you can start fresh with a new QuickBooks company and remove your current data, jose. Take note that you can only reset your account within 60 days of signing up. I'll share additional insights on how you can reset your account.

If your account is more than 60 days old, you may need to cancel your account and then create a new one.

Here's how to purge your data:

1. Log in to your QuickBooks Online account.
2. You'll need to sign in as an admin. If you're already signed in, make sure it's the company you want to purge.
3. Once you're signed in, open this link. Alternatively, you can go to the following web address:
   • https://app.qbo.intuit.com/app/purgecompany.
4. To confirm you want to delete your company data, enter Yes, then select OK.
5. Select your industry from the dropdown.
6. Select Create accounts based on my industry. This helps QuickBooks set up your chart of accounts after your data is wiped. Don't select Create an empty chart of accounts unless you've checked with your accountant first.
7. Select Wipe data.

Once your account is set up, you are ready to proceed with your reconciliation to match your records in the future.
