Question

Quickbooks US to Quickbooks UK

Dear All,

 

I am a Quickbooks Enterprise USA user subscriber and wishes to transfer to Quickbooks UK. Due to lack of info in the internet, I would like to raise the following questions for those who have experience on this:

 

1. What is the major difference between Quickbooks Premier and Quickbooks Enterprise in terms of functionality (I am currently running a test on this)

2. Anyone has tried to open a US file to UK Quickbooks version? If so, would appreciate sharing how it was made.

 

3. Aside from being subscribed to Quickbooks Enterprise US, I am also subscribed to Quickbooks Online Plus, which I can say has a very limited functionality - Is there any additional online platform UK has?

 

Thank you.

Should you have more than 5 users working on the same file or need the multi-warehouse feature, Enterprise edition is your option. Send your email address in a private message. I will send you the comparison between QB Desktop edition.

You have to purchase a 3rd party conversion service

QBO Advanced is only available for US version.  Consider having a 3rd party app as workaround to seperate users.

 

Thank you.

Hi @Ecoboy101,

 

Please see the answers below:

 

1. What is the major difference between Quickbooks Premier and Quickbooks Enterprise in terms of functionality (I am currently running a test on this)

The most important differences are the number of list items and number of users. Quickbooks Enterprise supports unlimited list items and 30 users while Premier has a limit of 10,500 items in a single list and 5 users.

2. Anyone has tried to open a US file to UK Quickbooks version? If so, would appreciate sharing how it was made.

A conversion service provider can convert a US file to Quickbooks UK. PM me if you need a recommendation.

 

3. Aside from being subscribed to Quickbooks Enterprise US, I am also subscribed to Quickbooks Online Plus, which I can say has a very limited functionality - Is there any additional online platform UK has?

Do you have a UK business or a US business? We will answer based on where your business is domiciled.

I've got the same problem. I've got a quickbooks desktop us version. And I've signed up to quickbooks online UK. Does anyone know any apps that can help this conversion? I've only been putting in sales and expenses transactions nothing else no vat or payroll etc so its very minimal. All of my transactions on the desktop us version is all in £ nothing American. Hope this helps.

You can use a third-party service to convert from QB US to UK.
