Important Tips Before You Upgrade or Convert the File

Here are a few things you must know before upgrading or converting your company file:

Only the admin user has the authority to update the QuickBooks company file. Upgrading the company file over a network is not advisable. Once a company file is updated or converted to a new version, it cannot be opened in the previous version. If a Pro or Premier file is upgraded or converted to the Enterprise edition, it will no longer be accessible in the previous version. Enterprise company files are compatible only with QB Desktop Enterprise Edition. Before upgrading or converting your company file, it's essential to rebuild and verify its integrity. This ensures a smooth process. In case of any errors, refer to Intuit's official website or contact QuickBooks Support Service providers for assistance.
