RapidStart for GP 2013 also includes a Migration Tool intended to aid consultants in verifying compatibility with specific versions of QuickBooks and Peachtree:

• Intuit QuickBooks Pro (2003-2013), Premier (2003-2013), and Enterprise (3.0-13.0)
• Sage Peachtree (2009-2013) versions of Pro, Complete, and Premium, and Sage 50 2013
