Moving to Yamate › QuickBooks
How to export your data from QuickBooks
What to click in QuickBooks, which files you get, and what can’t come across. Checked 6 October 2026.
Before you start: You need the admin login.
Everything in one go
- Click the gear (Settings) → Export data.
- On Lists, turn on Customers, Suppliers, Products and services and Chart of accounts.
- On Reports, turn on the invoice and bill lists you want.
- Click Export to Excel. You get one .zip file — drop the .zip in as it is.
What can’t come across
- Attachments
- Payroll history
Then bring it into Yamate
- Open Yamate and go to Settings → Your data → Import data. New accounts are asked once, after the welcome.
- Drop all the files in at once — CSV, Excel or ZIP. They are read on your phone or computer.
- Check the tick-list. Owed invoices stay owed, paid ones count as paid, and nothing you already have is changed.
- Tap Add. Anything you untick is left out.
