Question is how employees can be setup as limited QBO users to ONLY import/upload or primarily email receipts TO quickbooks for company expenses     Not SEND receipts out, which of course is somewhat easy.   

QBO cares little about the needs of any users. Incoherent system like a drunk created this crappy dysfunctional, overhyped "app"   Most every hyped "feature" offers extreme limitations rendering it near useless.  Along with the constant nickel and diming for any actual usable options.

The idea that everyone should research and setup and even pay for 3rd party apps to make QB functional is an arrogant stance and disgrace to all the customers now stuck with subpar, overpriced and incoherent app that barely handles "accounting".  We are supposed to lobby and beg via feedback portal for basic functionality is absurd.  Worse these non working features are what duped many users into buying into media hype.  Can't wait to leave QB in the dust.        Beyond disgusted.

Fully agree. I need my team to submit pettycash expenses, or Credit card payments etc. And then make them ready for my approval to enter into quickbooks or decline. (If it’s not a proper tax invoice, or unreadable receipt etc. We now do this all manually which requires them employee, the two accountants, and then me to prepare the expense reports. Just so disfunctional and time consuming! I am seriously considering leaving quickbooks hence I can on this support system to hope there was a solution. Looking into Zoho, Monday.com for integrations, and a new one called Bayzut, which even has payroll etc. Companies like Quickbooks really need to update else it will be a Nokia and blackberry effect.

Hi - do you have any constructions app recommendations for this type of thing?  

PLEASE,PLEASE MAKE THIS AN OTION, ASAP

Quickbooks, please add this very basic functionality to your software. Many employees in any given company can make purchases, but do not have access to company financials. This should be reflected in how you can customize user types.

I appreciate your engagement and proactive approach to sharing your thoughts with us, alayne.

I completely understand that many employees are involved in making purchases without requiring access to company financials directly. Having different levels of access for employees while ensuring that sensitive information remains protected would be very helpful in the segregation of duties within your organization.

Several years later and it appears that you STILL cannot grant credit card scanning only for a user........

In this day and age, it should not be that difficult for QB to offer this. This is the whole point of why I just joined QB. Disappointed. 

And why aren't you providing the feedback to the developers for us? It should be your job to do this, especially when we have already wasted our time to research this issue ourselves. 

This is a BASIC operation in mostly all businesses. Why does this thread go back for 2 years. With nothing but a CRAP reply of how to let the development team know. I just started with QBO and am starting to think I made a mistake if something so simple and extremely common in business can’t be developed over 2 years time???? Come on that’s PITIFUL. 

did the gmail account work?  that seems like a good idea wanted to see if it worked before i go thru the hassle

I know this is a few years later but did this option work for you? If so that's kind of ingenious and I may try doing the same!

@MCCTreasurer2024 

You can explore to signup for a free travel and expense management app to integrate with QBO as a workaround.

My first choice would obviously be to just use QuickBooks and not have to integrate another program but I appreciate that suggestion as a backup option! 

My goal is to figure out an option just using QuickBooks that doesn’t require integrating with another program, but I appreciate that suggestion as a backup option!

This is absolutely pitiful. I was sure I was missing something. NOPE STILL CANT DO IT.

We have IT accounts that receive receipts for IT subscriptions. I'd LOVE to be able to set an auto-forward to QBO so that they can go there, and get matched.

BUT you can only have one email address per user.  THAT's STUPID.

In What company does the accounting team purchase all the receipts.

Good Grief.

It's now June 2024 and I just received the exact same response....STILL no updates on this feature.

The response from the QB rep suggests the user has to do all the work to get QB to simply LISTEN to it's customers.

"To ensure that your suggestion reaches our development team, I encourage sharing your comments by following the steps below...."

Why do I (and many others) need to go through all of those steps to get my/our suggestion heard by the right people at QB?
