Can you have more than one 'company' ?

Yes, you can have as many as you want. You have to pay for each one.

 

I'm not sure the exact steps, but I did a quick Google search and found this convoluted post from Intuit:

Can you have more than one 'company' ?

Hi there!
 Welcome to the community. I'd be glad to answer your question.
 

Great news! You can absolutely have as many companies as you'd like under the same QuickBooks Online account.

Moreover,  it's important to consider that it's necessary to have an additional subscription to each company you create, but you can access them with the same sign-in info so you could quickly switch between companies.

On top of that, you can also manage each company more efficiently.

In a addition, I've laid out some steps on how to add a new company. Follow the methods below:
 

1. Go to the QuickBooks pricing page and select the subscription you want. 
2. You’ll see a page that asks you to create an Intuit account to buy QuickBooks. Scroll all the way to the bottom and look for the small text that says “Adding a company to an existing account.” Select Sign in next to this. 
3. If you're signed in to QuickBooks, you’ll be asked to confirm the account you want to sign in with. If the account displayed is the one you want to use for the new company file, select Continue.
4. When asked, enter the same ID and password you already use for QuickBooks. 
5. Fill out all the information about your new company and you’re good to go.

 

Furthermore, to switch between companies at any time, go to the Gear icon and select Switch company.
