Download your data, or close the business

Take a full copy of your books as spreadsheet files, and close a business you no longer run.

Your books are yours. You can download everything at any time, on any plan, and keep it whatever you do next.

How do I download all my data?

  1. Open SettingsData and closing.
  2. Under Export your data, choose Download (ZIP of CSV files).
  3. Open the files in Excel or Google Sheets.

Only the business owner can download everything. Everyone else can use the export on each list, like invoices or contacts.

How do I close a business?

  1. Download your data first.
  2. Under Close this business, read what happens.
  3. Type the Business name to confirm, and choose Close this business.

What happens when I close it?

  • Your books become read-only. You can look, but not change anything.
  • Everyone else in your team loses access straight away.
  • Your connection with your accountant or bookkeeper ends.
  • Your plan is cancelled, so there are no more charges. Repeating invoices, reminders and API keys stop.

This can't be undone

You can still download your data after closing. Billbook keeps the records for as long as you need them for tax and record-keeping, then deletes or de-identifies them.

Can I bring books in from here too?

Yes. Bring your books across starts a move from Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks or a spreadsheet.
