When is it time to rebuild your QuickBooks Desktop File?

Being proactive in managing your QuickBooks Desktop File ensures there is no unwanted downtime during business operations. When a QBD fails, it can bring a business to a screeching halt. While there are no hard lines to know when you should rebuild your QBD, there are some general metrics that indicate when it is time to consider doing so. As your file increases in size, you will notice a decrease in performance.  A file over 1.5gb in file size could be at risk and indicate it is time begin planning a rebuild. Also, once you go over 750 targets you can no longer do an automatic QBD to QBO conversion. Additional red flags such as frequent crashes in the file or error messages indicating a data error should also be considered.
