Hi - I have a new bookkeeper. I want to ensure they have proper access but of course not access to $$.

Do you hire a 3rd party bookkeeping company?

HI!  thank you for the reply!  Yes, and he lives out of the country...   I don't "know" him exactly you know?  I would hate to have our financial security in jeopardy!  Thank you, Eric 

Good morning, magerse.

Thanks for taking the time to reach out for support here in the Community. I'd be glad to show you how to set up the new bookkeeper in your QuickBooks Online account. 

Here are the steps to get them setup as an account user:

1. Sign in to QuickBooks with a user profile that has permission to manage users.
2. Select Settings ⚙
3. Choose Manage users.
4. Click Add user.
5. Select a user type. Then select Next.
6. Select the access rights for the user. Then choose Next.
7. Choose the user settings, if applicable. Then click Next.
8. Enter the user’s name and email address. Click Save when you're finished.

The following linked article provides additional info on this process: Add and manage users in QuickBooks Online

Lastly, this link explains each user role and access right in QuickBooks Online. I recommend one of the Limited Accesses or Custom User if you have an Advanced account.

Please don't hesitate to reach back out if you have any other questions. I and the rest of the Community will be here to help.

Thank you so much MorganB!!!    

@magerse 

Ask "him" to have QBO US Accountant account to access your QBO account. I wouldn't recommend you run the bank feeds and you (or him) should import the data manually. Last consideration, open a separate Melio account for free to manage your bill payments and utilize the authorization feature.

Any specific concern with us? 8)

I noticed about your posting regarding QBD Mac 2016 earlier. 

No!!! It's just my lack of information.

I am so sorry that I questioned fiat lux-asia. They provided me a link to a copy of a 2019 demo that works with High Sierra and are helping me secure a permanent license.

@garyeskow 

Yes for sure 8))

Thanks for responding, Lux! I'm just trying to confirm that you are able to purchase a copy from intuit!!!! Ready to go.

Thanks for all your help, Monica. I was able to order a copy of QB Pro 2019 from F. Lux after making sure that the trial versions worked on both of my computers. Gary E.
