Factory Resetting a QuickBooks File? Here's How.

Kington, UK -- (SBWire) -- 03/17/2021 --Deleting data and starting a QuickBooks file from scratch comes with its set of limitations.

If the QuickBooks Online data is less than 60 days, the option to purge the account is possible when using QuickBooks Online Essentials, Plus, and Advanced. On the homepage, simply add "purge company" without the quotes after "https://qbo.intuit.com/app/" to purge company data.

Select the type of business to populate the chart of accounts. The type of business chosen will determine which accounts will be created by QuickBooks Online. Regardless of the type of business, personalized chart of accounts can always be created.

John Rocha, Technical Services Manager at E-Tech advises that the decision to purge data must be made on solid grounds. "Purging will not delete any items such as contacts or Invoices from your QuickBooks Online account, but will clear the cache of the sync," he said.

"The Revoke and Purge option should only be used if you intend to clear out your QuickBooks Online Account by manually deleting all data, and starting fresh. Reconnecting accounts without deleting data entirely can result in many duplicates. If you wish to simply zero out your account balances, but still want to carry the history in your account, you can make a journal entry to bring all the beginning balances to zero as of a specific date you pick."

It is also important to note that not everything can be deleted from QuickBooks accounts. These include sales tax account, un-deposited funds, retained earnings, inventory, reconcile discrepancies, and opening balance equity.

E-Tech simplifies the process of resetting a QuickBooks file with its File Reset Service. The service deletes all closed transactions from the data file providing a clean data file with beginning balances and open transactions.
