Hi, 

My client (in the UK) is using Quickbooks Desktop (UK Version) on his PC. 

I downloaded Quickbooks Desktop (UK Version) on my PC (In the UAE) and would like to set it up. 

The application is asking for the License Number and the Product Number. 

I need assistance on how to set it up on my PC -

•the process of how to do it

•the limitations

•can Quickbooks Desktop be used only on a single PC?

•is it required to surrender the license to use it on my PC?


A prompt response is appreciated. 

Thanks a lot in advance.

Which QB Desktop year version des your client use?

You can use the trial version for good if required

The client is using Quickbooks Desktop (UK Version) 2021.

I reckon using the trial version would have restricted features and would not help. 

Also, the application doesn't even move forward without entering the Product and License number [screenshot attached] for your perusal.

Thanks!

I appreciate your interest in using QuickBooks Desktop UK, @Trevor Sunny. I'm here to answer your questions and deliver you the necessary information to get started.

 

Since you've downloaded the Quickbooks Desktop on your PC, you can start installing it. Before proceeding, ensure your computer meets the system requirements. Here's your directory for complete instructions: Install QuickBooks Desktop.

 

List entries are a tool for managing your company data. They can help you track customers, suppliers, services, stock and non-stock items. See this article to learn more about the limitations: Maximum number of list entries (list limits and custom fields).

 

Using QuickBooks Desktop on a single PC is possible, but it restricts access to your company file to one person at a time. For more information, check out this reference: Features available and tasks you can perform in single or multi-user mode in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

When operating this product, we require the license number with other information such as product nameproduct numberversion, and release. Only customers with existing licenses can continue utilizing QuickBooks Desktop services in the UK. To locate it, refer to this guide: Find QuickBooks Desktop license info.

 

Finally, activate QuickBooks Desktop after you install it. Once done, you're ready to start.

 

Please note that the Pro, Premier, and Enterprise versions were suspended on June 30, 2023. You can find more information about this decision on this page: QuickBooks Desktop discontinuation support.

 

I hope this information has been helpful. If you have any further questions about setting up the program, don't hesitate to contact me.
