I can share some insights about sending a backup copy to your accountant in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
QBO is cloud-based accounting software. As mentioned by john-pero, we are unable to manually create a backup copy for your accountant. Instead, you can invite them as a user in your QBO account.
I'm happy to show you how:
Your accountant will receive an email invitation with instructions for signing into your company. The status on the Manage Users page will show as Invited and will change to Active once the invitation is accepted.
Here's an article that may come handy: How to manage an accountant user in QuickBooks Online.
That information should get you on the right track. As always, I'm only a few clicks away if you should have questions about this or anything else. Take care.
Using the online version you do not and cannot create a backup for any purpose, at least not without buying a third party app purported to backup for you but it is only good for your own login.
What you do is invite your accountant as an accountant user
