Welcome to the Community, pat120.

 

Yes, we can easily update your company file from the 2009 version to the latest one. To get started, have you already installed and activated the latest version of QuickBooks Desktop?


If not, here’s how you can prepare and install the latest version:

 

  1. Locate your license and product number. You can find these within your QuickBooks account or through CAMPS.
  2. Download the QuickBooks installer for your chosen version from this page: QuickBooks Desktop Downloads.
  3. Install the latest version of QuickBooks Desktop.
  4. Activate QuickBooks.


Once you’ve completed these steps, you’ll be ready to update your company file. For detailed instructions, you can refer to this article: Update your company files to a new version of QuickBooks Desktop.
