Checklist: Steps to Take Before Transitioning from AccountEdge to QuickBooks Data

  • Evaluate Your Needs: Utilize QuickBooks Online to understand and meet your business requirements. While it boasts advanced features like complex sales orders, batch processing, and comprehensive inventory management, be aware that certain functionalities may be limited in the Online version.
  • File Naming Compliance: QuickBooks Online has strict rules regarding file name characters. Ensure you rename any files that do not comply with these guidelines before uploading.
  • Check QuickBooks Desktop Version: Confirm that you are using QuickBooks Desktop 2016 or a more recent version. If you are on an earlier version, update your software to the latest release.
  • Verify Current Version: To find out your current QuickBooks Desktop version, open the application and press F2 or Ctrl + 1 to access the Product Information window. To upgrade, go to the Help menu and select “Update Now.”
  • Prepare Payroll and Reports: Make sure to generate all necessary reports and prepare payroll data in advance, as this information may not transfer automatically during the conversion process.
  • Utilize Database Conversion Services: Remember that you have a 60-day period from your account creation date to take advantage of “database conversion services” for migrating files from your PC to QuickBooks Online. If you miss this window, you will need to close your current QuickBooks Online account and create a new one.
  • Correct Inventory Errors: It is crucial to fix any discrepancies in your QuickBooks Desktop inventory before starting the conversion. This will help avoid potential data loss during the transition.

Why Transition from NetSuite to QuickBooks Desktop or Online?

QuickBooks is a dependable accounting software platform that streamlines financial operations for businesses, helping them save time and money. Many businesses consider moving from NetSuite to QuickBooks for various reasons, with cost being a primary concern. Here’s an in-depth look at the key factors driving this transition:

1.) Cost Savings

  • One of the most compelling reasons for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, to switch is the significant cost difference. For example, a small business with 10 users might incur around $10,000 per month for NetSuite, while QuickBooks Online Advanced would cost roughly $1,600 per month. This notable reduction in expenses allows businesses to allocate funds to other critical areas

2.) User-Friendly Interface

  • QuickBooks is widely recognized for its intuitive design, making it accessible even for those without a background in accounting. With a vast network of ProAdvisors available, small businesses can easily find and hire accounting professionals as needed. For instance, if your startup’s team members frequently need to enter expenses or generate invoices, QuickBooks’ straightforward interface enables them to do so with little training, thus saving time and minimizing errors.

3.) Scalability and Adaptability

  • Although NetSuite is designed for scalability, QuickBooks provides the flexibility that many smaller businesses or those with fluctuating demands find appealing. For example, businesses experiencing seasonal changes can effortlessly add or remove users in QuickBooks Online, adjusting their subscription to fit current needs and controlling software-related costs.

4.) Extensive Integration Options

  • QuickBooks boasts a rich ecosystem of third-party integrations, making it particularly advantageous for small to medium-sized businesses. For instance, if you operate an e-commerce business with Shopify, QuickBooks offers a direct integration that syncs sales data, inventory, and customer information automatically, saving significant time on manual data entry each week.

5.) Desktop vs. Cloud Solutions

  • While both platforms offer cloud-based solutions, QuickBooks also provides a desktop version, which may be preferable for businesses that require specific security measures or have inconsistent internet access. For companies operating in areas with unreliable connectivity or strict data locality requirements, QuickBooks Desktop allows for on-premise data storage.

6.) Industry-Specific Solutions

  • Although NetSuite delivers a wide array of features across industries, QuickBooks provides tailored versions for specific sectors. For example, the QuickBooks Desktop Contractor edition includes specialized tools like job costing, change orders, and progress invoicing, catering specifically to the construction industry.

Key Considerations Before Migrating Data from NetSuite to QuickBooks:

Before initiating the migration process, ensure you follow these essential steps:

  • Sign Up for QuickBooks Online: Begin by creating an account and logging in.
  • Complete Company Profile: Fill out all necessary welcome sections to establish your company profile.
  • Prepare NetSuite Data: Review and correct any errors in your NetSuite inventory to avoid data loss during import.
  • Automatic Conversion: The data migration process will occur automatically; you cannot interact with QuickBooks Online until it’s complete.
  • Data Replacement: After the conversion, data from NetSuite will replace existing information in QuickBooks Online. A warning notice will prompt you before any data is overwritten.
  • Confirmation Email: You will receive a confirmation email once the migration from NetSuite to QuickBooks Desktop or Online is complete.
  • Data Review: After conversion, thoroughly review your data to ensure accuracy and completeness.

 

By considering these factors and preparing adequately, businesses can ensure a smooth transition from NetSuite to QuickBooks, ultimately enhancing their financial management capabilities.

Comprehensive Guide to Migrating from NetSuite to QuickBooks

Transitioning from NetSuite to QuickBooks requires thorough planning and execution. Follow this detailed guide to ensure a smooth migration process:

1.) Determine the Data for Migration

Start by identifying the specific data that will be transferred. Common categories include:

  • Chart of Accounts
  • Customer information and transaction history
  • Vendor details and transaction history
  • Employee records
  • Inventory items
  • Open transactions (invoices, bills, purchase orders, etc.)
  • Historical transaction data

 

For instance, if your organization has utilized NetSuite for five years, you may opt to transfer the last three years of transaction history to QuickBooks, along with all current open transactions and master records (customers, vendors, and items).

2.) Extract Data from NetSuite

NetSuite supports data export in various formats. Here’s how to extract key datasets:

Exporting the Chart of Accounts:

  • Navigate to Setup > Accounting > Chart of Accounts.
  • Click on “Export” and select CSV format.

 

Exporting Customer and Vendor Lists:

  • Go to Lists > Relationships > Customers (or Vendors).
  • Utilize the “Export” function and choose CSV format.

 

Exporting Transaction Data:

  • Leverage the “Saved Searches” feature to create customized exports.
  • Set the criteria for invoice exports:
  1. Type: Transaction
  2. Transaction Type: Invoice
  3. Date: Specify the desired date range
  • Save the search and export it as a CSV file.

3.) Map Data to QuickBooks

Mapping involves aligning NetSuite data fields with their QuickBooks counterparts. Create a mapping document that serves as a guide for the import process, ensuring each piece of data is accurately transferred.

 

NetSuite Field:QuickBooks Field:
Account NumberAccount Number
Account NameAccount Name
Customer IDCustomer ID
Item NameItem Name
Transaction DateTransaction Date
Transaction AmountTransaction Amount

4.) Import Data into QuickBooks

QuickBooks provides multiple options for data import:
Using the Built-in Import Data Feature:

  • Navigate to File > Utilities > Import > Excel Files.
  • Follow the prompts in the wizard to align your exported CSV files with QuickBooks fields.

 

Given that NetSuite typically has a more intricate data structure than QuickBooks, consider utilizing a third-party tool like Numerawise Solutions for a smoother transition.

5.) Data Verification

Once the import is complete, it’s essential to conduct a thorough verification of the data:

  • Cross-check account balances.
  • Confirm customer and vendor details.
  • Sample transactions for accuracy.

 

To validate correctness, you can:

  • Generate a Balance Sheet report in both NetSuite and QuickBooks and compare the totals.
  • Review the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable aging reports from both systems.
  • Ensure that the counts of customers, vendors, and items are identical.

6.) Account Reconciliation

Conduct a final reconciliation to confirm the accurate transfer of all data:

  • Reconcile bank and credit card accounts.
  • Validate beginning balances for all balance sheet accounts.
  • Generate comparative financial reports (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet) in both platforms.
    For example, if your NetSuite bank account balance on the conversion date was $100,000, ensure that this figure is reflected as the opening balance in QuickBooks.

Additional Considerations

  • Customizations: NetSuite often features custom fields and forms. Develop a strategy for managing this custom data in QuickBooks
  • Integrations: Identify any third-party integrations currently used with NetSuite and explore suitable alternatives for QuickBooks.
  • Training: Provide your team with training on the new QuickBooks system, emphasizing the key differences from NetSuite.
