How to Transfer Vendor and Customer Information Between QuickBooks Files

Thanks for taking care of the licensing issue I had with the QuickBooks POS at the end of last week…

I think I remember you telling me at one point that you were a reseller for some of the third party Utilities or Applications designed to extract and modify data contained in the QuickBooks Databases…

I need to “Transfer” the Vendor and Customer information from one QuickBooks Database/Company to a new QuickBooks Database/Company…

I have done some brief research on this task, and it seems like there are several ways to do this, with varied results…

I am hoping you might have a reliable solution that could do this for me…

My only thing is once again the time frame…

This transfer is for a Marina that has a restaurant on the lake…

This weekend is 4th of July weekend, and they want to be using the new company file a couple days prior to the 4th…

I can use any advice or recommendation you have on this…

I would be willing to purchase a plugin or some sort of external utility if it would help…

You don’t need an add-on to transfer vendor and customer information from one file to another. Just go to File > Utilities > Export > Lists to IIF Files in your old file and select the lists you’d like to export. Save it somewhere easy to remember like your Desktop. Then go to File > Utilities > Import > IIF Files in your new file and select the file you saved.
