Quickbooks Destop Pro Plus

Do I have to have a company file linked to my Intuit account even if I do not use any services and just use Quickbooks to record activity in a checkig account?  I don't import any banking activity, don't have any employees, don't do any invoicing, etc.  I just use the Quickbooks to split out the income and expenses for filing a 1040.  I have used Quickbooks for 23 years and only updated the version a couple times.  Then in 2021 I purchased a new computer and had to update my Quickbooks because the old version I was using was for an old operating system.  When I purchased it, I told the Quickbooks employee I just wanted the desktop version that I didn't have to update every year because I only used it for basic bookkeeping.  I have not been following Quickbook discussions online.  Then in October I noticed that I had a charge from Quickbooks on my credit card for a upgrade/subscription.  Since I didn't notice the charge right away, I decided I would just accept the charge this time and install the newest version.  I kept receiving messages everytime I opened my Quickbooks to install the latest version.  I do not want to pay $570 per year to just do the basic functions.  Is there a way to unlink m

Let me shed some insights about the Intuit account, New2This4.

 

Yes, each business admin is required to link to or create an Intuit account for each company file. The purpose is to make it easier for you to access and manage your finances across all of your Intuit products, such as TurboTax, QuickBooks, and Mint, by using a single account. It also provides an extra layer of security and protection, as well as access to added features (Payroll, Payments, Time tracking, and more).

 

This article goes through everything about the feature in detail: Intuit account – Why now for QuickBooks Desktop?

 

To address your other concern, I recommend logging onto your Customer Account Maintenance Portal (CAMPs) to review your subscription, QuickBooks version, and charges. Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to camps.intuit.com. or get help signing in.
  2. Choose View your transaction history.
  3. From the Time Period drop-down menu, pick a date range of transactions. Note: You can select transactions from the past 2 years.

 

You will no longer be able to use QuickBooks if it has already expired or been discontinued. You can refer to this reference for more in-depth information: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy.
