Question

User Role not appearing in drop down list

I need to set someone up for Read Only access.  When I researched, the QB On Line website said to choose the "View Company Reports" role.  Yet when I try to set up such a user, this role does not appear in my drop down list of Roles.

 

Is there some trick to adding this type of User Role or can it even been done in a small company QB On Line version?  Not sure how reply works, but it's "[email address removed]".

 

Thanks!

 

Tom

Let me provide you with insights about this, Thughes160.

 

Please note that the View company reports feature is only available in QuickBooks Online Plus and Advanced. If you are currently using QBO Simple Start or Essentials, we recommend upgrading your subscription to access this feature.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then Subscriptions and billing.

  2. Click Upgrade your plan.
  3. Choose either QBO Plus or Advanced and hit Choose plan.

  4. Follow the on-screen directions to continue.
