Rebuilding the data damages

Let’s rebuild the damaged data integrity that we found after running the verify utility:

  1. Go to File, followed by Utilities, and then choose Rebuild Data.
  2. Before running the process, QuickBooks will ask you to create a company file backup.
  3. Find and locate the file on your computer where you want to save the file. Click OK, and ensure that you save to a new location rather than replacing the existing ones. Enter a new name in File Name and then click Save.
  4. Click OK once you receive the message saying, Rebuild has completed.
  5. Move back to the File menu and then click on Utilities.
  6. Now, tap on Verify Data to ensure all company file issues are fixed and data has been rebuild successfully.
  • If the verify utility finds more data damages, you need to get in touch with QuickBooks experts or visit our interlinked website to find out the troubleshooting steps.
  • If there’s no error, you can restore your backup file. Select File and then tap on Open or Restore Company.

Note: Save your restored version of company file on a new location rather than replacing it with a new one.
