I have business records in Quickbooks Pro 2015. I purchased Quickbooks Desktop Pro Plus 2022. Can I open the old database directly in Quickbooks Desktop Pro Plus 2022? Do I have to do something to prepare the old database first?

Hi RD48!

 

I can help you with upgrading QuickBooks Desktop and your company file.

 

QuickBooks Desktop has a 3-year lifecycle. Due to feature or version differences, it's best to upgrade your company file from 2015 to 2018 first before you jump over to 2022 to avoid data issues.

 

You don't need to purchase the 2018 version. Simply contact our Support Team so they can help you install the QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2018.

  1. Go to Help, then select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
  2. Select Contact Us.
  3. Enter "Upgrade company file", select Let's talk and then choose a way to connect.

 

Check this link on how to upgrade your company file: Upgrade your company files after you switch to a new version of QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Lastly, I added this article if you're having trouble opening your company file: What to do if you can't open your company file in QuickBooks Desktop.
