Sample company files

A wonderful resource to use in QuickBooks is the sample company files.   But how do you get to them?

Open QuickBooks as you normally would.  When this screen comes up, click cancel:

When you see the no company open screen, click to open the sample company files on the right side.  I use Premier version, which has many sample files. Pro has fewer.

Since sample files are portable files at first, you will see this screen to open it:

What is really nice about sample files is that you can look at the proper set up of records and you can make entries and not really hurt anything since it is just a sample file and not a real data file.
