QuickBooks Desktop will not be accessible nor supported beyond this date. What do you need to do?Īny businesses currently using the desktop version will need to find an alternative solution prior to the discontinuation in June 2023. This is a clear indication of why going into the 'cloud' has never been so important – with HMRC continuing their drive with Making Tax Digital, and in an increasingly fast-paced business environment, it’s key that you are using a suitably compliant and efficient accounting software. QuickBooks have advised that the discontinuation is due to the Desktop platform increasing the risk of customers using out-of-date and non-compliant software and missing important updates. The Online version of QuickBooks will still be available beyond this point.

It is important to note that these changes only impact UK customers.īusinesses using the Desktop version of accounting software QuickBooks should be aware that this will be discontinued from June 2023, in the UK.
