Ask the Accountant…
Question: I am thinking of converting from another industry software into QuickBooks Online. Can I move my order history from my old system into QuickBooks?
Answer: I get this question often when discussing system conversions with distributors. Unfortunately, you cannot move order history from another order management system into QB.
You can, however, move your Customer and/or Vendor List from your current system into QBO, although I strongly suggest you clean up your lists before making this move.
If you are currently in QB Desktop (Pro, Premier or Enterprise), that is a different story. Your old order history from QB Desktop will migrate into QBO.
