QBServer 2019 for mac

Ok, something is strange on my iMac.  We run QB2019 for mac and QBServer2019 for mac.  The application QB2019 is stored in the Applications folder.  But, I can not find the QBSever2019 app anywhere.  The only way to start the QBServer app is by enabling multiuser mode under the File menu in QB2019, OR, by double clicking on the company file.  A search for QuickBooks 2019 Server does NOT show the application.  So where is it???

 

Thanks,

John

Thanks for the advice.  The issue was resolved in a phone conversion with an intuit QuickBooks rep.  It turns out when only QB2019 for Mac is installed that file contains both QB2019 and QBS2019 for Mac, which is what I was beginning to suspect.  There is nothing in the documentation that I could find confirming it.  I tried a chat session but the person on the other end suddenly disconnected.  That was odd.  This could be a FAQ!

 

Again thanks.
