How do I create a budget from data in QuickBooks SE?

 

Trying to create a budget, but no options exist in the SE online product. They do exists for other variants, but I haven't been able to find anything for this one. Any ideas?

Creating a budget using your data in QuickBooks Self-Employed is not yet possible, ALSWilcox. The Budgeting feature is only available in QuickBooks Online Plus, Advanced, and Accountant plans.

 

You can upgrade from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online. Just select one of the plans I mentioned for upgrading to, and follow the on-screen instructions. Here's the article for additional reference: Switch from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online.

 

Once the upgrade is successful, you can create the budget report using your data.
