QuickBooks Desktop with its multiple functionalities is a highly recommended accounting software for small- and mid-sized companies. The software assists business owners to comprehend their overall financial status. Among the many features that enable users to do so is being able to export the financial statement designer to MS Excel worksheet. While this feature makes the tasks of users easy and consumes less time, QuickBooks sometimes receives QuickBooks error code 1311 at the time of exporting the financial details to the excel file. Also, the same error may arise while installing QuickBooks desktop application through a CD.
