Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions, Straightforward Answers.

Here are some of the frequently asked questions and their best answers for your clarification.

Why did Bench shut down and what should I do with my data?

Bench Accounting shut down in December 2024, leaving thousands of businesses without access to their financial records. If you were a Bench customer, your first priority should be exporting all available data from your Bench account before access is permanently closed. The next step is migrating that data into a new platform. QuickBooks Online is the most widely recommended alternative because of its flexibility, integrations, and broad accountant support.

How do I migrate from Bench to QuickBooks Online?

Migrating from Bench to QuickBooks Online involves exporting your financial data from Bench, setting up a new QBO account with the correct chart of accounts, and importing your historical transactions, balances, vendor and customer profiles, and journal entries. Done manually this process is error-prone and time-consuming. Fortress Accounting handles the full migration for businesses and completes it within 5 to 7 business days.

Will all my Bench data transfer to QuickBooks Online?

Most core financial data transfers cleanly, including your chart of accounts, opening balances, accounts payable and receivable, bank and credit card transactions, invoices, bills, and journal entries. Some non-financial items and certain Bench-specific data may not have a direct equivalent in QBO. Fortress reviews your data before migration and flags any exclusions clearly so there are no surprises after delivery.

How long does a Bench to QuickBooks Online migration take?

Fortress Accounting completes most Bench to QBO migrations within 5 to 7 business days. The timeline depends on the volume of historical data and complexity of your books. After you upload your Bench data through our secure intake process, our team handles everything and delivers a fully set up QuickBooks Online account ready to use.

Can I do the Bench to QuickBooks migration myself?

Technically yes, but most business owners who attempt a DIY migration end up with gaps in their historical data, mismatched balances, or a chart of accounts that does not match their actual business structure. These issues create problems at tax time and make it harder to get clean financial reporting going forward. Having an accounting team handle the migration ensures the books are accurate and GAAP-compliant from day one in QBO.

Does Fortress Accounting offer ongoing bookkeeping after the migration?

Yes. Many clients who come to us for the Bench to QBO migration also stay on for ongoing monthly bookkeeping and accounting services. Once your historical data is clean and your QBO account is set up correctly, we can take over your books entirely so you have consistent financial support going forward without needing to find multiple providers.
