Needing some help from more experienced users

SOLVED
Posted By

Hi folks!  I've just taken on a client who's previous bookkeeper was using Sage Accountant's edition (licensed in the previous bookkeeper's personal name) to do my clients books. The bookkeeper has now quit so I'm assuming my client has to buy their own licensed product.  We are looking at the Premium edition.  Does my client have any concerns that their data from the Accountant's version won't be able to be read using Premium?  Thanks to anyone who can help!

    Hi Robin:

    The only concern I can think of is that the data file could have been created as a Pro, Premium or Quantum file. You will need to ascertain what type of data file was created. If it was created as a Pro file it can be upgraded to Premium or Quantum. However if it was created as a Quantum file then it is not downgradeable. Some additional work would be necessary to create a Premium file. If you have a backup of the bookkeeper's client Sage file, when restoring the data it will tell you which product and version it was created in.

    Hope this helps!
