When I give a local accountant access to my Quickbooks Online account by inviting him, is he able to make a copy of my quickbooks online database? When he is making changes to it will it affect what I am doing? How does Quickbooks differentiate between what I am doing and what the accountant is doing?

Allow me to fill you in on everything you need to know about inviting an accountant into your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
Once you invite an accountant into your QBO account, they'll be able to review your books, make corrections, and fix any tricky transactions. That said, your accountant will only make sure that the data you entered in QuickBooks is accurate.

My accountant had access for over a year but can no longer access my account. How do I re-authorize her access?
Thanks for posting in the Community, Argiroff.
Let's reinvite your accountant so they can review and ensure the accuracy of your bookkeeping.
Inviting your accountant allows them to use powerful tools to easily review your records, make necessary corrections, and collaborate with you on any issues that may arise.
Here's how to do it:
Your accountant will receive an email invitation and their status will change to Active once they accept.
In case your accountant is still unable to access your company, I suggest letting them sign in through a private browser to isolate browser issues as the root cause of the problem. If everything works smoothly, they can clear the cache or use an alternative browser to access QuickBooks.
If you no longer want your accountant to access your books, you can check out the steps found in this article: Accountant users in QuickBooks Online.
For future use, here's an article on managing different user roles and access permissions: User roles and access rights in QuickBooks Online.
