Effortless Sage 50 to QuickBooks Conversion: Accurate & Hassle-Free Migration

 

Why Convert from Sage 50 to QuickBooks?

Sage 50 (formerly Peachtree) is a powerful accounting software, but many businesses switch to QuickBooks due to its user-friendly interface, cloud-based options, advanced reporting, and third-party integrations. QuickBooks offers a more flexible and scalable accounting solution, making it the preferred choice for small and mid-sized businesses.

Challenges in Sage 50 to QuickBooks Conversion

Migrating from Sage 50 to QuickBooks is not as simple as exporting and importing data. Some key challenges include:

• Data Compatibility Issues – Sage 50 and QuickBooks use different database structures.
• Chart of Accounts Differences – The account numbering system may need adjustments.
• Inventory & Payroll Data Migration – Ensuring accurate mapping of product, service, and employee details.
• Historical Transaction Transfer – Moving all past records without data loss.

Our Sage 50 Canada/Simply Accounting to QuickBooks Migration Service

We offer an industry-standard Canadian Sage 50/Simply Accounting to QuickBooks Enterprise, Premier, Pro, Accountant, or QuickBooks Online conversion. All versions of Sage 50 can be migrated to QuickBooks or QuickBooks Online with 100% accuracy. The conversion will guarantee that the Trial Balance, Profit and Loss, and Balance Sheets in QuickBooks will exactly match your Sage 50 data. Other financial reports, including Aging A/R and Aging A/P, will match as well.

What Data is Converted?

1. Chart of Accounts
2. Customers List and current balances
3. Projects/Jobs List (last 2 years only)
4. Vendors List and current balances
5. Employees List
6. Other Names
7. Items List
8. Inventory Quantities and Values
9.  *Invoices
10. *Bills
11. A/R: All current and historical
12. A/P: All current and historical
13.  Payroll (As Journal Entries)
14. Journal Entries

The default conversion includes the last two fiscal years of data (additional years can be converted upon request). For multi-currency datasets, all transactions are converted as journal entries. Projects can also be converted as classes upon request.

What We Don’t Convert

While we transfer all essential financial data, the following data types are not included in the standard conversion: ❌ Departments

1.  Projects (Can be converted to classes if requested before conversion)
2.  Budgets
3.  Memorized Transactions
4.  Estimates
5.  Purchase Orders
6.  Negative Stock
7. Sales Orders
8. Payroll Summary Data
9.  Custom Templates
10. Bank Reconciliation
11.  Price Levels
12. Advanced Inventory Features (U/M, etc.)
13.  Items on invoices/bills not set up as inventory or service items
14.  *Invoices/Bills incompatible with QuickBooks are transferred as Journal Entries (due to tax incompatibility or other issues)

 For multi-currency datasets: ALL transactions are converted as journal entries since QuickBooks handles multiple currencies differently than Sage 50/Simply Accounting.
