check the compatibility of the program with wine, it should help determine if the program can run under wine

Quick Books is listed on the official commercial side of wine under What Runs but it is not rated or any user feedback. You have two options to try - get a 14 day free trial period to run Cross-Over on Zorin and test it out or download Deepin 15.3 from Softpedia which comes with Cross Over (older verrsion) pre-packaged - and it is legal - CodeWeavers did a deal with Deepin that they could include Cross-Over as part of the OS but cannot offer it as a separate package to be installed.
