But you need to have the basic knowledge of how service providers do a Quickbooks clean-up. In that vein, here is an easy guide that will put you on the same page with your service provider. Quickbooks features a powerful application designed for easy and quick clean-ups. This application is called Clean-Up Company Data Utility. You only need to run this utility on your work stations and your accounting books will be easily set in order. To use this utility, you have to open the Quickbooks Clean-Up Company Data Utility on your workstation. Select file, then utilities, then Clean Up Company Data and a box will pop up that asks you to confirm your action. Tick the ‘yes’ box and another box will open to allow you to choose an option regarding the starting date that you want the utility to start the cleanup process. When you pick a certain date, it means that all your business transactions on or before that date will be condensed into a monthly transaction.
