I can share some information that can help you with importing your accountant's copy, @donnam742.
There won't be any problems as long as it has the same accountant password.
Before anything else, make sure to back up your company file. Then, turn off any Advanced Inventory features if you use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise.
Follow these steps on how to import your accountant’s changes:
