Advance Reporting Access Denied

I know that having to go through multiple troubleshooting steps and not having any of them work can be a real pain, especially when you have more important things to be doing. I appreciate the time and effort you've spent with one of our technical support agents to get this sorted out, Dknow.

In this case, we'll need to create a new custom role for that user to access QuickBooks Advanced Reporting. Where you can create brand-new roles from scratch. This lets you determine which specific areas of your accounts can be accessed. Here's how:

1. Go to the Company menu, then select Users.
2. Tap Set Up Users and Roles.
3. Enter the admin password, then press OK.
4. Choose the Role List tab, then tap New.
5. Give the role a name and description. Name something that indicates its permission level.
6. In the Area and Activities section, select an area of your accounts. Review each area and select None, Full, or Partial to set the role's permissions.
7. Once you set permissions for each area, press OK to save.

Here's an article you can refer to for more insights about QuickBooks Desktop Users and Restrictions. If the same thing happens, just follow the steps below to troubleshoot the issue:

I created a new role.  added advance report and some other stuff.  Still having an issue.

As for reaching out with contact us.  That is what i have been doing. So i reached out here.  Still same issue.

I am sick calling and chatting with no help.

I had a agent call me (used this twice) used chat (used this twice) no answer or fix for this issue.

Keeps saying you do not have permission, ask your admin for access.  It seems like they need permission for something.  I know full access and admin can use this advance report.  But that is not acceptable for users that do not need full access.

Also forgot to say.  This feature was working before the last update.  So to me it seems like the permission issue is from the last update.  When will the next update come out to fix this?

Having the same problem. 

I understand this situation caused you frustration, and I want to reassure you that we are committed to resolving it, cjbv.

To confirm, have you tried verifying and rebuilding your data? If not, let's run the Verify Rebuild Utility tool to help fix data damage.

Here's how:

1. Go to the File menu, hover over Utilities, and select Rebuild Data.
2. On the QuickBooks Information window, select OK. 
3. Follow the onscreen steps to save a backup.
4. Let the tool repair your file. It may take some time. QuickBooks may seem stuck, but as long as you can move your mouse, the tool is working.
5. When the tool finishes, select OK.
6. Go to the File menu. Then, hover over Utilities and select Verify Data.
7. Let the tool check your file for data issues.

I got fed up with it and just removed it.  That was my fix

QB has been trying so hard to push the online product.  The last time i tried it, it did not have as many features as the local server QB.  But they keep pushing it.  ahh... no you can keep the online.  just fix the local server software.

That never works
