QBO to Desktop Conversion

It's good to see you here, @mreller.

At the moment, there's no issue raised about users from Boulder, Colorado unable to convert QuickBooks Online (QBO) back to QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

However, I'll share the steps on how to perform it. First, let's get the migration tool to go back to QBDT, this can accessed by changing the URL for QBO in your browser. 

Here's how:

1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online using a supported web browser.
2. In the URL bar, replace anything after /app/ with exportqbodatatoqbdt (it should look like this: https://app.qbo.intuit.com/app/exportqbodatatoqbdt).
3. On the Export overview screen, click the Get Started button.
4. Click the Download tool button to download the migration tool.
5. After downloading, launch the installer and run it.
6. Follow the prompts to complete the installation process.

After that, go back to QBO and prepare the export process for migration. 

You can follow these steps:

1. Login to your QuickBooks Online account and click the Gear Icon.
2. Choose Export Data and enter your reason why you're exporting your data. Then, click Continue.
3. Review your data from the export overview screen. Once ready, click Export to Excel.
4. In the Exporting from QuickBooks Online page, select Continue to Download.
5. Then, follow the rest of the on-screen instructions to complete the exporting process.

You might want to verify and check your data after the migration process, or if you need a refresher on running reports, we can take a look at this article: Understand reports.
