How to Install & Set Up QuickBooks Desktop

Though you can install QuickBooks on your own, RKG Enterprises is here to speed things up and ensure everything is configured correctly. Before you begin, make sure to:

Back up all important files
Set up your network properly
Check file-sharing permissions and network access

QuickBooks offers three installation modes, depending on your setup:

1. Central Server Installation

Install the QuickBooks Database Manager on a central server. This option is ideal for securely storing company files and sharing them across your network.

2. Peer-to-Peer Installation

QuickBooks is installed on each system in the network. One main user hosts the company file, while others access it remotely. Perfect for small teams and sole proprietors.

3. Remote Desktop Services

Instead of installing QuickBooks on every device, users access the software through a remote desktop connection. This is a flexible, centralized approach for businesses with remote teams.

Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
