Hello everyone.
Thank you for posting here in the Community. Allow me to join the thread and help share additional information about adding an accountant in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
@athleticamps, yes, @marcyk is correct, to add an accountant user in QBO, you must have the active subscription. Also you must have the administrator rights to invite or remove an accountant.
To add or invite an accountant user:
- Go to the Gear icon.
- Select Manage Users.
- Go to Accounting firms section to invite your accountant.
- Invite your accountant. If this is your first time adding an Accountant, enter your accountant's email, then select Invite. If you've added an accountant already, select Invite. Enter the accountant's name and email address, then Save.
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.
However, if you're referring to this investigation (INV-23683), our engineers are continuing to work for an immediate fix of the issue. While they do that, I would suggest inviting the accountant user with a different email as a Company Administrator until we've fixed this for you.
