Business/Accountant View and tasks widget

I just got added as a new user under a profile and it looks like my profile is stuck in the "accountant" view. I looked up how to switch to "business" view but I don't have that toggle switch under the gear settings icon. Has anyone had this issue before? I also don't have "tasks" in the list of widgets under my dashboard settings.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Business/Accountant View and tasks widget

Hi there, Amilo.

 

Certain features are available to you based on your designated user role. I'll explain how these work in QuickBooks (QB).

 

Your default view is based on how the primary or company admin set up the account. Switching views depends on the role they set up for you. The accountant role has specific feature limitations, such as switching views. This also explains why the Tasks widget isn't visible on your end.

 

In this case, you can reach out to your admin so they can verify your permission and edit it if necessary.

 

To learn more about the different types of user roles and permissions, as well as how to manage users, visit these articles:

 

 

You can also personalize your dashboard by clicking the Customize layout at the top right corner of the dashboard to add, remove, or relocate the widgets.
