You can import existing Quicken data into a new Peachtree Accounting 
company. The steps to convert data vary depending on whether you are using 
the DOS or Windows version of Quicken. Follow the instructions that are 
appropriate for the version of Quicken that you are using.

Converting from Quicken to Peachtree Accounting is a three-step process. 

Export all Quicken accounts into a separate directory.

Create a new company in Peachtree Accounting.

Import the Quicken exported files into the new Peachtree Accounting 
company.

During the conversion process, the information you have exported from 
Quicken is imported into Peachtree Accounting. Due to basic differences 
between the two programs, some of the Quicken data cannot be imported 
into Peachtree Accounting as it is. Rather, you must redefine how you want 
the data to be handled as part of the import program.

Understanding the basic program differences can help you decide how you 
want to redefine Quicken data. 

Peachtree Accounting is a full accounting program. It uses a chart of 
accounts to track transaction amounts. It requires that every transaction have 
an equal, balancing transaction. Peachtree Accounting automates this for you 
behind the scenes.

Quicken is a cash management program. It does not require that every 
transaction have an equal balancing transaction. It does not have a traditional 
chart of accounts. Rather, it considers most asset and liability accounts to be 
separate accounts while expense and income accounts are categories. You set 
up transactions for payees and track transaction amounts by classes as well as 
categories.
