Does the choice of Accountant or Other make a difference in setup?

Hello, accounting-washi.

Thank you for posting your concern here in the Community.
Are you trying to setup QuickBooks Online Accountant (QBO) or QuickBooks Online Account (QBO)? I'd like to share some insights about these products.

In (QBOA), you'll have an accountant option in which you can manage your client list. projects, etc.
While for (QBO) you can check this general article: All about QuickBooks Online
