QuickBooks Desktop 2020 includes new productivity-boosting features to help you save more time and stay more organized. Some of the new/improved features include:


  • Easily create and email invoices and get paid faster by automatically reminding customers when payments are due.
  • Enhanced reporting including real-time visibility reports and charts of profit & loss, expenses and open invoices. Enhanced budget, forecasting and cash flow reporting.
  • Import and export excel data; incorporate bank and credit card transactions directly into your QuickBooks file.

The annual drop date for the oldest product version was May 31.

According to Intuit’s current discontinuation, after May 31, 2020, access to add-on services will be discontinued for QuickBooks Desktop for Windows 2017. This includes all versions of QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier and Enterprise Solutions 2017. Users will not be able to subscribe to live technical support or any of the other Intuit services, which can be integrated with QuickBooks Desktop.

Access to QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Services, Live Support, Online Backup, Online Banking and other services through QuickBooks Desktop 2017 software will be discontinued after May 31, 2020. This also means users will no longer receive critical security updates starting June 1, 2020.
