geo restrict quickbooks online access

To increase the security is it possible to geo restrict access (eg to the UK only) to QBO or to restrict access to specified IP addresses.

Hello there, @eddie-paterson.

I appreciate your response to this thread. The feature that you want to restrict geo access is not possible in QBO. But as mentioned by Fiat Lux - ASIA above, you can switch to QuickBooks Desktop to have your own cloud server and restrict access from there.

If you'd like to try QuickBooks Desktop and download a free 30-day trial.

Additionally, I'd recommend you check the limitations when you convert from QuickBooks Online to QuickBooks Desktop.

Please reach out to us again if you have other questions about geo access restrictions. Have a wonderful day!

Afaik, you are unable to do such thing on any cloud based accounting app. Consider switching to QB Desktop and deploy a private cloud.

Many cloud apps enable this to be done, so its not a question of technology.
