Deleting an accountant

As usual, quickbooks instructions don't match reality.

 

I don't have "permission" to upload a picture but here's what the instructions say:

 

  1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online as a primary admin.
  2. Go to Settings , then select Manage users.
  3. Select the Accountants or Accounting firms tab.
  4. Find the accountant you want to remove.
  5. From the Action column, select Delete.
  6. Select Delete.

 

In reality, My "action" column in the accountant row is empty.  How do I delete an old accountant?

 

Thank you.

Who is your primary admin? Your accountant or yourself?

Hi there, ian-bendcalibrat.

 

I'm here to get the help you need to ensure you can delete an accountant.

 

To be sure we're on the same page, I'd like to verify if you removed an accountant from the Manage Users page. If yes, please know that accountants can't remove other accountants or themselves from that page. If you want to remove an accountant, you'll have to log in to QuickBooks Online as a primary admin and continue following the steps you've shared.

 

For your visual reference in managing an accountant user, see this article: Add accountant users in QuickBooks Online.

 

For future help, you can check out this article to help guide you in managing users: Add and manage users in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you have further questions about removing an accountant, let me know by commenting below. I'll be here to lend a hand. Have a great day!

The delete column is blank.  I am the primary admin, but cannot delete an accountant.  How is this accomplished?
