Question

Desktop Migration to Online

We use QB Desktop integrated with Accupos software for EPOS stock control and have  a file size which currently is to big to migrate to online.

As we are UK based QB Desktop is to be retired at the end of January 2023 so we have no option but to move to QB Online but my concern is that currently Migrations have been suspended until a method is found to move bigger files.

What I wanted to clarify is what will happen at the end of January 2023 to our current version of Desktop which was installed from a download if we are still unable to Migrate, will it cease to function or could it still be used to let us carry on running our business ?.

How big are your Total Targets? I think they are trying to improve the tool to be able to convert data with a Total Target of up to 750K. If your Target Total is >750K, you should be prepared to consider purchasing a third-party conversion service. You can also find the latest discussions here

Hello Michael, so we are looking and awaiting an update to see if there will be an option to be able to still access the data after the 31s jan 23 but currently at this moment in time it is the case that you will not have any access to your data after the 31st Jan 23 so you will need to export all the data out of it and save it to your pc or move to qbo or another software before the 31st jan 23.
