Multiple version of QuickBooks Desktop in One
Computer
QuickBooks, the avantgarde accounting and payroll
software has benefitted small and medium
businesses all over the world. This software
comes with powerful features and also provides
various facilities like you can run and install
multiple versions of the QuickBooks Desktop and
edition of QuickBooks in the same desktop. That

be opened at the same time while different
editions should be opened one at a time.
Terminology

Note the below mentioned points before you
install multiple product installations

1. In the same computer multiple version of
   QuickBooks can reside.
2. Only one flavour can be installed for per Premier
   or Enterprise version of QuickBooks Desktop.

• Do note that you can take QuickBooks Desktop
  Edition as a flavour of premier desktop and also
  you can adjust the Accountant edition with any
  other flavour of Pro or Premier Desktop.

3. The best thing is that if you are using
multiple versions like QuickBooks Desktop 2017
and 2018 version can be used at the same time. In
case, you are using QuickBooks premier 2018 then
you require to open QuickBooks Premier 2017 so
that you do not need to close Premier 2018 prior
to opening Premier 2017. 4. When it comes to
edition only one QuickBooks edition like that of
QuickBooks Premier and Enterprise can be used at
one time. So, when you have to work on QuickBooks
Premier 2018 and get the need to open QuickBooks
Enterprise 18.0, then QuickBooks Premier should
be closed before opening QuickBooks. 5. Ensure
that you do not install multiple regions of
QuickBooks Desktop in the same computer.

• It is suggested that you make use of a web
  hosting service or virtual system to create an
  environment for each of the part of QuickBooks
  Desktop that you plan to run as compared to your
  own region.
• The data files are absolutely impossible to
  share between QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise and
  other QuickBooks Desktop versions or between
  different year versions.

Examples

• In case you use Premier normally and if you
  want to try Desktop Enterprise, opening the
  premier data file in the Desktop Enterprise can
  affect irreversibly. So, you should not use the
  premier.
• In case, you want to try out some other edition
  then you have to first open a file sample in the
  edition you want to use instead of opening the
  company file.
• If you wish to open QuickBooks Premier 2017
  data file in the QuickBooks Premier 2018, then
  QuickBooks updates that file so that it cannot be
  used in the Premier 2017.
• Note that steps to install the manual update
  are always different. So, if you wish to update
  QuickBooks through the manual update you will be
  asked to choose the edition for an update
  especially when more than one edition installed.
