Basic and Full Conversion Differences

1 - Quickbooks items have an item name and item description.  AE has an item# (46 Characters), item name (62 Characters) and a description.  The QB item name will become the AE item#.  The QB description will become the AE item name, but the name will cutoff at 62 characters so we (or you) will have to cleanup the item name to match a max of 62 Characters.  The QB name will become the AE description and can be used on invoices and purchases. AccountEdge also has a limit of 6 pricing levels.

2 - Jobs - In QB any card could be used as a job#.  In AE the job# must be created.  We can create the jobs from the QB data but are limited to 15 characters for the job#.  We cannot have duplicate jobs in AE.  So we might have to use numbers for the jobs, you can later change them.

3 - Payroll - Payroll accounts must be setup to match the way you do payroll for your company.

4 - Invoice & PO numbers cannot be over 12 characters.  Substitute invoice and purchase numbers will be created.  A reference to the old invoice or purchase number is created on the invoice or purchase.  Lots of big invoice or purchase numbers can add time to the conversion process.

5 - Every Purchase & Sale must have a PO# or Invoice#, the Pur/Inv#  must be unique.  Non unique Pur/Inv# can add time and cost.

6 - Credit invoices and purchases must be manually applied to open invoices.   (Adds time and cost to conversion process)

7 - Customer & PO Discounts can not be imported.  Must be manually entered. (Adds time and cost to conversion process)

9 - Payroll transactions cannot be imported as payroll transactions.  They are imported as a Check to the Employee with all the payroll transactions are posted inside of the check detail.  (We can add them manually as a payroll transactions, this adds time and cost)

10 - Voided checks are not transfer (unless you want them to be

11 - Deposits and bank reconcilations are entered at the end of the year (We can match all deposits and reconcillations but it adds time and cost to conversion process)
