User Roles and Permissions

Having issues customizing users and roles for new users.

 

Here is an example. If i can solve the below step by step i would be able to customize anything, i believe. QB support has been bad so far.

 

How can i customize an user so he can mark bills as paid and at the same time to have access to see the payables aging summary and detail? Roles are in "bill payer" and "view report". But cant figure out how to add functions from one type of role to the other.

User Roles and Permissions

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Luis50.

 

It's crucial to have effective communication among team members to improve your business workflow and keep track of payables smoothly. Let's work together to address your concern about customizing a user so that they can mark bills as paid and the reports mentioned above.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can personalize every role and assign individual permissions for designated tasks. Follow these steps to achieve your goal:

 

  1. In your company, go to the Gear icon in the upper-right and choose Manage users under Your Company.
  2. Click the Add user button in the Users tab to open the Add a new user page.
  3. From there, fill in the fields with the appropriate information.
  4. Tap the Roles drop-down and select Standard limited vendors only.
  5. Review the access and permission levels and press the Send invitation button. 

 

After that, the user will receive an email inviting them to join the company. Advise them to click on the Let’s go! link. They can either set up a new Intuit Account or sign in if they already have one.

 

 If the employee has already been added and with a different user type, simply modify the role  Here's how:

 

  1. In your company, go to the Gear icon in the upper-right and choose Manage users under Your Company.
  2. In the Users tab, look for the user you're working on.
  3. Go to the Action column and click the Edit link to see more options.
  4. On the Edit user page, tap the Roles drop-down and select Standard limited vendors only.
  5. Press the Save changes button for the changes to take effect. 
  6. Choose Update info.
