Hello, DSomers88
In QuickBooks Desktop, you can add or grant access to specific areas to help you manage your books. I know you hate setting up profiles, but this is the only way to give them access to that area.
To begin, please ensure to login as the admin user of the company file. Then, you can follow the steps below:
- Go to the Company menu, then select Users.
- Select Set Up Users and Password, then Set up Users
- Click Add User.
- Enter a User Name and Password, then Next.
- Under What do you want this user to have access to? page, choose the Selected areas of QuickBooks, then Next.
- Select No access until you reach the Inventory section, then choose Full access, then Next.
- Hit Next with No access for the rest of the areas until, then click Finish to complete the process.
With this setup, the user should be able to enter purchase orders, receive goods, adjust inventory, and run inventory reports.
