What is the best way to backup all company data if I close QBO?

Hello,

Running your business with QuickBooks Online is an awesome way to make your bookkeeping tasks simple. I know businesses are constantly evolving, and if you no longer need an active QBO subscription, I can see why you'd like to close the account. While I'm sad to see you go, I'm happy to explain the best options for your data. 

Once the subscription has been cancelled, you'll have 365 days of read-only access to your account information. This allows time for you to continue to review important information. 

You can consider exporting a few lists and reports that will be essential to keep on record. Here's a list of the things that can be directly exported from QBO: 

• General Ledger
• Profit and Loss
• Balance Sheet
• Trial Balance
• Journal
• Customers
• Employees
• Suppliers

To export, click the Gear icon > Export Data.

In addition to exporting these important pieces of information, I'd recommend looking into a third-party app that may help you back up your company information. Here's our apps page where you can review compatible solutions: https://apps.intuit.com/app/apps/home.

If you have any other questions, please reach out to our tech support team and an agent would be happy to assist you. 

Cheers.
