Quickbooks Desktop Version

There’s been a surge in requests for tax-related software analytics in the last week! I wonder why! :) Thanks for the suggestion though – who else out there is using QuickBooks desktop? Vote if you’d like to see this prioritized!

This will be a great addition to Power BI if QuickBooks Desktop had a connection.

Quickbook is of the most used software, Powerbi is an amazing tool that will allow small and medium companies to go to the next level ,,
Microsoft definitely need to consider this market as a big opportunity

I would love for Power BI to be able to get data from the Desktop version of Quickbooks!

Definitely needed. Users do not want to migrate to QuickBooks Online to use Power Bi data. I suggest that Microsoft will benefit if Quickbook Desktop users get excited about Power BI. If so, there is a good chance that users might be willing to migrate to Dynamics instead of QuickBooks Online. I was not very happy with QuickBooks Online and would have used Dynamics instead of QuickBooks Desktop if pricing had been tolerable for my client.

Ironically, MS could make more money from Desktop linking than what they would make from selling an AX system.

@Anton Wright - Not to sound negative but my guess is that Microsoft will never take this on because of a couple of reasons.
1st - and probably most important, a listed in comments previously, other vendors in the Quickbooks community have already created numerous adapters that create ODBC compliant connectors for QuickBooks data. Some (like QQube create a real data warehouse out of the data and others(like Cdata) at least make the data available in an OLTP data model.
2nd - MSFT doesn't have a strong economic incentive to invest in this because expectations would be high and that would mean a high investment. Also, in some way, it would be good for Microsoft's Business Solutions (MBS) division to have people wanting to leave Quickbooks and search for an alternative that MBS could fill with it's won solutions.
if you'd like to see a demo of the QQUBE solution you can find a time suitable to you on my online calendar at: https://calendly.com/ernestcook

Three years worth of requests for the same feature for the most popular desktop accounting software. Wonder why it keeps getting overlooked...
This is holding our company from going from 10 PBI licenses to 500.

You could just buy https://gypsybi.com and host the extracted data on Azure instance, Microsoft gets subscription revenue on the cloud and customers gain access to QB data. Seems like a win-win

please create a custom connector to QB Enterprise; after all it is a file! Our QB server is in Azure, we will never move to QB Online. We currently use QODBC to export data from QB to SQL but it would be so great to read out of QB directly
