Intuit is phasing out QuickBooks Desktop 2023, with support, security patches, and add on services like payroll and banking ending on May 31, 2026.

After this date, there will be no more updates, security patches, or technical support. While the software may still open, it will become increasingly outdated and vulnerable over time.

If you are unsure what this means for your business or need help with your transition to QuickBooks Online or another solution, we are here to help.

Budgeting does not have to be complicated.

Here are 3 simple ways to manage it better.

1. Use bookkeeping software with budget tracking.

Tools like QuickBooks Online or Xero allow you to create and monitor budgets alongside your actual numbers, so you can stay on track throughout the month.

2. Connect your bank accounts.

Sync your business bank and credit card accounts to automatically import transactions and keep everything up to date without extra manual work.

3. Set your budget limits inside your budget tracker.

Use the budgeting feature in your software to set monthly budgets by account, then run Budget vs Actual reports to compare your actual spending and catch any overages early.

Check in regularly to make sure you are staying within those limits and adjust as needed.

Common triggers include underreporting income, claiming excessive or unusual deductions, using large rounded numbers that suggest estimates, and failing to issue or file 1099s or W 2s.

Here are some commonly audited business types:

- Cash intensive businesses where income may not be fully reported
