Hello Giovanna1
I have the same problem. I cannot add a new user.
what should I do to fix it?
It's nice to have you here in the Community, @Christina2020.
Allow me to share with you some information on how you'd be able to add a user in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
First off, let's check if your type of subscription qualifies you to add an additional user.
If you're currently using QBO Simple Start, you can only have one user for Master admin access alone. However, if you're using QBO Essentials, you're able to have up to 3 users which include the Master admin, Company admin, Standard, Time Tracking only, and Take payments only. Lastly, you can have up to 5 users for QBO Plus and up to 25 users for QBO Advanced.
You can check out this article to learn more about this including the different user types and the levels of access in QuickBooks Online: What are the number of users per level of QBO subscription?.
Also, you'll have to make sure you're the Master admin or Company admin of the account to be able to add a user as pointed out by my colleague @ PreciousB.
Once you're able to verify it, you can now add a user's access depending on the type of QBO plan you have by following the steps suggested by my colleague above.
I'll be adding this article in case you wish to delete or change a user in your QuickBooks Online account: How do I delete or change a user in my QBO account?.
As always, you can get back here in the Community if you have more questions about adding a user in QBO. I'll be here to lend a helping hand. Stay safe and have a great day, @Christina2020.
The problem still exists. I'm the Master Admin and subscribed to QBO Plus. Wanted to add first new user but unable to save. Anyone can help. Thanks
I can help you figure this out, wps1977.
I've replicated it on my account and was able to add a new user. A possible browser issue might have caused this. We can perform some steps that can resolve unexpected results while doing a task in QuickBooks Online. Let's add a new user to an incognito window. Please use these keyboard shortcuts:
If you're able to add it successfully, let's go back to your main browser and clear its cache. This removes browsing history and starts your browser fresh. Also, use other supported browsers as an alternative.
I've also added a reference for more information when managing users in QBO:
Please let me know if you have additional concerns related to adding users to QuickBooks Online. I'll be sure to get back to you.
@GlinetteC the keyboard shortcut works (Control + Option + P). Thanks and appreciate that !
I've tried Chrome, with and without an incognito window, and safari. In all cases the Save button remains greyed out.
Thank you for joining the thread, @Nortical.

For anyone who encounters this problem, I found that the issue (of greyed out Save button when adding a New User) was caused by copying and pasting an email address to the email box. When I entered it manually it was accepted.
Thanks for Nortical, that helped me out a lot, I was copy pasting and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't save
