Hello, I upgraded my quick books from quick books self employed. I need to access files/reports from my quick books self employed. Anyone know how to do this

Hello caroline-m-kupka,

It's exciting to hear that your business needs have grown and that you're now using QuickBooks Online. Making sure you get all set up is key, and I'd be happy to point you toward a resource that can help with making the switch from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online.

QuickBooks Self-Employed and QuickBooks Online are both great options for those running businesses, one geared toward self-employed entrepreneurs and the other toward small business owners. These are two separate versions of the software, so rather than an upgrade, you've changed from one to the other. For these kinds of situations, we have an article with step-by-step guidance. Since it sounds like you've already got a QuickBooks Online account, I encourage you to review the If you don't see the Explore QuickBooks option of the following article: Switch from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online

It's also important to note that, as separate products, QuickBooks Self-Employed and QuickBooks Online each have separate login portals. While both can be accessed by visiting the QuickBooks Canada website, when you hover over Sign In, you'll want to choose QuickBooks Self-Employed to login and access that data or QuickBooks Online to login and access that data. Even if both logins use the same information, make sure you're picking the right login portal so that the program can understand how to read and present your data in the appropriate interface.
