Welcome to the Community, hazelwooddance.

 

I can help you add another business to your QuickBooks Online account.

 

You'll need to sign-up for a new QuickBooks Online account to create another account for your business. One company file is equivalent to one subscription.

 

If you want to add this company under your existing Intuit ID, log into your current company when creating a new account. Simply click on the Add another company button when creating another account.

 

Here's how to add a second account:

 

  1. Go to the QuickBooks pricing page and select the subscription you want.
  2. You’ll see one of two sign-in pages and ask you to confirm the account you want to sign in under. 
  3. Select “Yes, that’s correct." if you recently signed in to QuickBooks.
  4. If not, select Add another company. When asked, enter the same ID and password you already use for QuickBooks. 
  5. Fill out all the information about your new company and you’re good to go.

 

To switch between companies, here's how:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon on the upper right corner.
  2. Select Switch Company on the fourth column.

One QBO account is for one company file. You can manage branches/divisions by utilizing the Class/Location feature available in QBO Plus. Otherwise you should open a new account.
