Hi there, wbisoen-hotmail-.

 

Good to see you here! Let me share some details about data conversion.

 

The QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online data conversion is only available for US and UK versions. If you have any of these, we can easily convert the file.

 

We can install and use the trial version of QuickBooks Desktop. From there, we can upgrade your file. Please follow these steps:

  1. Back up your QuickBooks Desktop company file
  2. From the trial version, go to File, and select Open or Restore Company.
  3. Click Restore a backup copy. Find and open the backup copy of your company file.
  4. Select Open, then Save.

Once done, here's how to move your QuickBooks Desktop file to QuickBooks Online. 

 

For the non-US nor UK versions, you'll want to look for a third-party converter, like Odyssey. Another way is to manually import them. For your reference, please check these articles:

I'll be here if you need more help. Wishing you all the best!
