Thank you for the info. Problem is we are accountants and we manage about 150 Desktop Pro and Enterprise files. We use QB through a third party intuit commercial host server. Some clients file share but the majority we (our office staff) utilize and manage and the client does have access.

There is zero reason that my staff or anyone else would need authentication over and above the QuickBooks login in that we already authorize to them. They do not have an intuit account and will never need an intuit account as an employee of my accounting firm. 

Will Intuit make this optional in the future?
