Didn't see a backup option in the menus, did notice that my account info says i'm paying $21 for 12 months (at a 40% discount). If they slap on an extra 40% after 12 months, i'll get rid of it, and check if David has more specials next year.

It was a few years ago that i was with Rekon. Is there a backup option for intuit qbo ?
After I wrote about getting a back up file I went to Help on QBO. Now, please DONT quote me on this but Im sure I read there is a way to get a file to load onto Excel. It sounded pretty convoluted, but possible!
If so, maybe theres a way to load that file back on to QBO.
But really, you'd be best looking into it yourself and talking to a support person.
Cheers, i'll check it out over the weekend.............. then ring them and tell them 'Mick from the forum sent me'
You can download all sorts of reports and transaction detail as pdf, or excel formats.
Otherwise, intuit takes care of backups for you....
Currently QBO are offering free migration of MYOB and Reckon accounts - and now Xero has been added.
This is not just chart of accounts, contacts, open invoices/bill and balances at a certain date - but FULL TRANSACTION HISTORY as well.

What else do you do as the end of financial year approaches
- i check with my accountant I have paid enough tax to reduce the chance of a tax bill
- prepay insurances
- anticipate any new eqpt needed in the next 6 months
I am sure there are many more things to look at to set up for the new year, what do you do????
Might be wise to wait until all the details come out for this last budget. I'm confused because last year the accountant said I could immediately depreciate items up to $6500 but now they are saying it was only $1000 you could depreciate. This announcement says its now up to $20,000 on as many items as you like.
I wonder if the promised tax discount of 5% is applicable to both GST registered and non-GST registered businesses? The devil is in the detail.
Budgets is very good, and will stimulate activity. woohoo for the Liberals and there bookkeeping/management Skills, Pay that Labour Debt off again and will all be rich.
thought i would share this with everyone, sent to me by my accountant.
Recent changes to the laws for self managed super funds have made them an option that every one needs to consider.
SMSF's is a super fund that you fully control. You make all the investment choices including shares, managed funds, property, and cash.
SMSF's can now borrow from a bank to purchase investment properties.
Don't know if this is the right thread for this but thought a lot of people would be interested to know.
I will post some preparation for EOFY info this weekend.
Purchase of capital might be a good way to reduce your tax for this year - and boost your ongoing earning potential.
Lower interest rates can make borrowing appealing (but I won't stake my life on it remaining low)
Yes, there has been some changes in the depreciation rules in recent years.
Businesses were able to write off items (accelerated depreciation) up to $1,000, but depreciate those valued greater.
Then it was increased to expenses up to $6,500 (plus additional $5,000 depreciation for vehicle purchases)
Then it was reduced back to $1,000
http://www.budget.gov.au/2015-16/con...verview-07.htm
It is now increased to $20,000.
Is this NOW, or next year? I will check on the start date for this......
Keeping up is quite a challenge...
