QuickBooks Online allows you to invite different users through the Manage Users page. If you'd like to give your accountant access to your company, see the steps below.
- Sign in to QuickBooks Online (QBO).
- Select the Settings ⚙️ icon then Manage users.
- Select Accounting firms.
- Select Invite.
- Enter the accountant's name and email address, then select Save.
- Your accountant will be sent an email with a link to sign into your QBO company.
- Your accountant will be asked to create a user ID before signing in the first time, unless they already have an account with Intuit Business Services.
- Until your accountant signs in, their status will remain as Invited on the Manage Users page. After accepting the invitation, their status changes to Active.
- Follow the next steps, then select Finish.
- Select Continue.
What does this mean to you?
- If you invite your accountant and they already have a QuickBooks Online for Accountants (QBOA) subscription, they'll get a link to access your QBO company.
- If you invite your accountant and they don't have a QBOA subscription, they'll have a chance to sign up when you send them this invitation. Signing up is free and allows them access to your QBO company at no cost to you.
- Your accountant will have access to all of the features available in your version of QBO.
- You can invite up to two accountants.
- Accountant users have additional privileges that allow them to undo entire reconciliations, reclassify transactions and write off invoices.
