Let me provide you some information about the get a code text that you're receiving once you log into your account, markawp1791.

 

The Two-Step Authentication is a setting in QuickBooks Online (QBO) where you need to verify using a code, that you're the one accessing your account every time you log in. This is also a security and is important in QBO account to add an extra level of protection and to reduce fraud.

 

If you're being asked to verify your account every time you log in, it's because Two-Step Authentication has been enabled. You can disable this by following the steps below:

  1. Log in to the Intuit Online Account management portal.
  2. Navigate to the Security tab. Click Turn Off to expand the Two-step verification section.
  3. Select Turn Off.
  4. Enter the one-time passcode you received and click Continue.

 

Once disabled, you will only be asked to verify your account when you log in from a new device (PC or mobile), a new browser, or when you clear or reset your current browser's cached data. 

 

For more information and reference, you can browse these help articles so you'll be guided in anything about QuickBooks.
