Unfortunately, the person who set up our QuickBooks account (a past employee of our tax consultant), has passed away. We have tried to recover their credentials without luck. We are unable to reassign the Master admin rights to my account without intervention from Quickbooks.
You need Intuit approval to do so. Another option, purchase a 3rd party service to migrate your data to a new QBO account.
We’re very sorry to hear about the situation. Since the current primary admin is no longer available, you'll need to submit a request to the QuickBooks Account Protection team to transfer admin rights.
To become the new primary admin, you must prove that you own the business or have permission to assume this role. Please gather the required documents before starting the request form.
Once your documents are ready, follow these steps:
The Account Protection team will email you their decision from no_response@intuit.com. You'll either be made primary admin or told how to reapply.
If you have any further questions, please let us know. We're always here to help.
