hi QB Community -- I am a bookkeeper working with four partners and managing their individual S-corps' finances. I want to set them up with individual QBO accounts, but when I try to use my existing email/ user ID to set this up, an error is returned since my user name/ email is already "taken".
Since the user ID is asking for an email address (and I can't create new email addresses to manage these accounts), how do I set up and manage these individual accounts?
many thanks!

Hi @Lizaluuu,
Welcome to the Community. Thanks for reaching out. You can absolutely have multiple companies with the same User ID/Email.
Once you have selected the correct version of QBO, on the sign-up page, at the bottom of the page look for “Adding a company to an existing account?” Sign in
Sign in with your email and password and that will add the new company to your current log-in. To switch between companies when you're in QuickBooks:
I’ll leave you this article with details about adding a company: Create or add another company
Let me know if you need more help, or if you have any additional questions. I’m happy to help anytime.
Do you have any QBSE or QBO Accountant account? You can only use the same email address to manage QBO accounts.

thanks so much -- this worked for me! I really appreciate your help.
thanks, Monica! I followed these steps and it worked for me! It's a bit nerve wracking, since the site asks for payment before acknowledging a new company set-up. But I suspended disbelief, and it worked out. Thanks a million!

Great news @Lizaluuu1!
I'm so happy you got the companies added. Let me know if I can help with anything else.
I'm just a click away!
