Hey there, @gsando65-gmail-c.

 

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to the Community for support. I hope your Friday is going great so far. 

 

There's no direct way to move your data from QuickBooks Online to Desktop. However, you do have the option to export and convert your QBO data to QuickBooks Desktop. I've included some steps below to export and convert your data. 

 

  1. Login to your QuickBooks Online account and click the Gear Icon.
  2. Choose the Export Data and enter your reason why you're exporting your data. Then, click Continue.
  3. Review your data from the export overview screen. Once ready, click Export to Excel.
  4. In the Exporting from QuickBooks Online page, select Continue to Download.
  5. Then, follow the rest of the on-screen instructions to complete the exporting process.

 

That should do it. For additional details about this process, check out Export and convert your QuickBooks Online data to QuickBooks Desktop.

 

I also wanted to mention if you're having issues getting the data converted, please know that you can reach out to our Technical Support Team. This way, an agent can use their tools to securely view your account and screen share with you to help with the process. 

 

Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I'm always here to lend a helping hand. Take care and have a great weekend!
