Conversion Process Microsoft Dynamics to QuickBooks

Start your conversion process by signing up for QuickBooks Online. Once you sign up, then log in to your QuickBooks Online account, create a company profile, and complete any of the welcome fields. Make sure not to enter any other data in this step.

Fix any existing errors and issues with your QuickBooks Desktop inventory before importing to prevent loss of data. The conversion process is automated, and there is nothing you can do in QuickBooks Online until the process is finished. During the conversion, data from QuickBooks Desktop will replace existing information in your QuickBooks Online. A warning message pops up on your screen before the process overwrites any of your data.

Run Payroll Data

You might need to run payroll and pay taxes before converting. Make sure to mark any employees who no longer work for your company as inactive and fill out all the crucial data about your current employees. However, gender and other personal data are not necessary for QuickBooks Desktop. However, QuickBooks Online needs all your data about your employees before you can be working with the payroll.

Run Reports

Before beginning the conversion process, run a Balance Sheet and a Profit and Loss Report in QuickBooks Desktop. You need to review these documents after the conversion is finished to make sure all data is transferred accurately.

Backup Your Data

You might need to create a backup of your file to restore your current data in case you need to start over with the conversion process, then click on the file, and then switch your QuickBooks Desktop to a sole user. Now that your computer is a single-user mode, click on Backup Company and select Create Local Backup.

Now specify where you want to save your data and follow other prompts on your screen before saving your information.

Export Your Company File

Now that you have updated your QuickBooks Desktop program and prepared and backed up your file, you are ready to start the conversion.

In your QuickBooks Desktop software, select the Company Menu. Then, click on Export Company File to QuickBooks Online, and a window pops up on your screen, asking you to log in to QuickBooks Online. Follow the prompts on your screen to import any inventory data.

Complete the Conversion Process

The conversion then starts automatically. In some instances, you can finish the conversion process in as little as an hour, depending on the size of your file. If your files are very large, then the process can take up to 24 hours. Make sure to select No if a “slow scripting error” shows on your system’s screen to avoid halting the whole process.

As you don’t have to do anything during the conversion, it is fine to let it run undisturbed while you take care of your other tasks outside of QuickBooks Online. You can expect to receive an email to confirm that QuickBooks Desktop’s conversion to QuickBooks Online is complete.

Check Your Data

Once the conversion is completed, make sure to check your pre-conversion and post-conversion Profit and Loss Reports to double-check that all the information is transferred successfully. Compare the statements looking for any discrepancies. Once everything is checked, you can then go through the guided tour to understand the navigation process and check how to add your accountant and customize your QuickBooks Online reports.
