No matter the reason, you'll need to convert your data from AccountEdge to QuickBooks Online.
AccountEdge to QuickBooks Online Migration
Here are some things you'll need to consider when converting from AccountEdge to QuickBooks Online:
- Data Format - The data format is everything! AccountEdge and QuickBooks Online both use different data formats. You can usually import QuickBooks Online into AccountEdge, but it's not always the other way around.
- Chart of Accounts - AccountEdge has its own chart of accounts and it's totally separate from QuickBooks Online. You'll need to create your new QuickBooks Online chart of accounts based on your old AccountEdge chart of accounts.
- Customers and Vendors - Customers and vendors are usually the easiest to convert. You'll just need to match up the contact information between the two programs.
- Invoices and Bills - Invoices and bills are a little more complicated. You'll need to make sure the item codes, descriptions, and quantities match up.
- Payroll - Payroll is the trickiest part of the conversion. You'll need to make sure all of your employees are setup correctly in QuickBooks Online (linked to the correct QuickBooks Online profiles), and all of your pay rates are set up correctly.
- Reports - Reports are another tricky part of the conversion. You'll need to make sure that the report names, formats, and dates all match up between accounts.
- Mailing Labels - If you're using mailing labels in AccountEdge, you'll need to find a QuickBooks Online equivalent.
It can be a daunting task for someone who isn't familiar with the different types of data formats used in AccountEdge and QuickBooks Online.

- Rounding can be different in QuickBooks Online and AccountEdge because of the data precision techniques used in both software.
- In Purchase Bills - we don’t bring items or product in QuickBooks Online.
- Blank Bill reference Numbers and Invoice reference Numbers:- In case we find any invoice or bill without a number, we use a dummy number example for Bills:- Bill1, Bill2 and for Invoices - Inv1, Inv2.
- Duplicate reference Number in bank transactions or invoices/bills:- In case we find duplicate reference numbers then we use transaction numbers instead of reference numbers or make the numbers unique by appending an extra character with a hyphen
- Limitation of Reference number:- QuickBooks Online have limitations of 20 characters for Reference number thus for the reference numbers more than 20 characters we have to trim them to 20 characters.
