Hi Label Ladies,

 

I applaud your entrepreneurial spirit. QuickBooks Online has a feature built in to help prevent accidental modifications to protect the integrity of your data. I can explain why you're being asked for a password.

 

At the end of the year, the company's books are closed to prevent any accidental changes that can change the year's financials. QuickBooks Online allows you to make it password protected. The process for closing the company's yearly financials is in this article: Close your books in QuickBooks Online. If you need to make changes to the password, that information is in this article: Edit your closed books. 

 

If you require any further assistance, let me know. Have a great day!
