    Baby Got Backups: Backing Up QBO Course Description

    QuickBooks Online is hosted, and theoretically never needs to be backed up. But there are plenty of reasons to back up your file:

     

    • a period archive
    • a snapshot in time
    • a failed import
    • restoring accidentally deleted transactions.


    You can export lists to Excel, and there’s also a “back door” to exporting your QBO file to Desktop. QBO Advanced has a backup tool built right in. We’ll also look at several different backup strategies for QBO Simple Start through Plus, to choose which one is right for your needs.

    We will also look at 3rd party apps including Rewind and exportmybooks.

    We'll even do a live demo of using Rewind to UNDELETE a transaction!
