QuickBooks Online Accountant or Intuit Accountant Suite (IAS)

To get help with QuickBooks Online Accountant or Intuit Accountant Suite (IAS), follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to Intuit Accountant Suite (IAS).
  2. Select the help icon Help.
    Note: If you are using QuickBooks Online Accountant, then select Help Help.
  3. Select Contact Us.
  4. Type a brief description of your issue, then select Continue.
  5. Select your preferred contact method:
    • Schedule Callback: Request a call from an Intuit Expert at a time that works for you.
    • Start a Chat: Connect with an Expert via live chat.
    • Community: Ask a question or browse responses from experts and other customers.


First, check which help experience you have

QuickBooks Online has two help experiences: A newer AI-powered experience called Intuit Intelligence, and the classic Help experience. The steps you follow depend on which one your account has. Here's how to tell them apart.

Select the help icon Help in the QuickBooks Online, then observe what appears.

In case you see Intuit Intelligence (the newer experience):

  • Intuit Intelligence beta in the chat window,
    • A text field Ask anything appears with a multicolored border.
    • A sparkle icon may be displayed in the QuickBooks company dashboard when AI‑powered functionality is available, and it will appear at the time an AI‑driven action is triggered during your workflow.

If this is the case, follow the steps in Get help with Intuit Intelligence section.

In case the classic Help experience is seen:

  • Assistant tab: Enter your question in the Type or ask something field, then select one of the answers or the options, which the QuickBooks Assistant provides.
  • Search tab: Enter your question in the Search questions, keywords, or topics field to get a list of related articles.

If this is the case, the Intuit Intelligence section must be skipped, and follow the steps in QuickBooks Online (classic Help experience) or QuickBooks mobile app section.
