IIF (Intuit Interchange Format)
Also known as: .iif, Intuit Interchange Format
Intuit's tab-delimited text format used by QuickBooks Desktop to import lists and transactions.
What it means
IIF is a QuickBooks-specific tab-delimited format used to import chart-of-accounts, customers, vendors, and transactions into QuickBooks Desktop. It is often exported by legacy tools and needs to be converted to CSV or Excel for review, cleanup, or migration to non-Intuit accounting systems.
