Why does QuickBooks migration fail unexpectedly during transfer?

[emma_jain]

While migrating our QuickBooks Desktop company file to a new system, the migration fails unexpectedly every time. I’ve checked the tool and version compatibility. Has anyone faced this issue? What’s the best fix or QuickBooks Migration Tool version to use? Any suggestions or help?
