    Hi Sheryl, thanks for your post and welcome to the Reckon Community.

    That's not a problem.

    Create a backup of your company file on the old computer.
    Uninstall Reckon Accounts
    Install Reckon Accounts on your new PC
    Activate - you can use the sample file
    Restore your backup

    If you are getting a Windows 8.1 PC, then look at our article
    https://community.reckon.com.au/reckon/topics/reckon_accounts_windows_8_0_8_1_ie10_11
    for additional installation and operational tips.  

    Hope these pointers give you a smooth transition to the new PC.

    Regards,
    Shakir

    thank you for your reply, ....if i find the most recent back up from last payroll.....would that suffice...it is confusing me as there seems to be 3 back ups that day with the latest in time being called 004....assume that this would be the correct one with the current data
     to transfer...

    Please restore the latest backup and once restored you can check the latest transactions by running the Audit Trail.

    Hi Sheryl,

    Are you using Payroll Premier or Reckon Accounts?

    Kind regards,
