We are considering QB Enterprise Suite for 10 users. Our server is Windows 2008 and needs replacement. Is the database manager happy to run on a domain contoller, which would allow us to install 2022 Essentials, or does it require a non-DC domain member?

I checked that link. It does not explicitly answer the question. Can the database server function be installed on a domain controller, such as Windows 2022 Essentials, or does it require a non-DC domain member server?
Hi GLBNS.
Allow me to clarify a bit more about this. There are many kinds of servers that the database server manager can be installed onto but it still needs to fall into what's compatible in the system requirements. As long as its an open connection that you're able to access and its not a cloud storage you can install the database manager and use it.
If you have any questions let us know and we'd be happy to help.
So, either Server Essentials 2019 or Server Essentials 2022 would be suitable platforms for the database server?
Yes, that's correct, GLBNS. Let me know if you have other questions. I've got your back.
