Question

I can no longer email a report from 2021 Quickbooks Desktop for nonprofits. Where can I get help to sort this out. I do not want to be directed to an online version. 2021 Desktop provides more than what we actually need.

Hello, GLeifso. You can no longer email a report because all versions of QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) from 2021 were discontinued on May 31, 2024.

 

As part of this discontinuation policy, access to connected services has been removed, meaning you can no longer send forms or reports directly through the software.

 

For more details on the service closures, please read the QuickBooks Desktop 2023 service discontinuation policy article. While it refers to the 2023 version, the same rules applied to the 2021 discontinuation.

 

If you prefer to remain on a desktop platform instead of transitioning online, upgrading to the latest version of QuickBooks Desktop is the best way to regain the email functionality.

 

Let us know if you have any questions in the comments below. We're happy to help.

It's part of their policy to restrict service to outdated versions like bank feeds. You'll need to download the report locally and manually attach it to an email.
