Intuit Account to be used for a new company file: our existing Intuit account or Intuit account associated with this new company?

Hi,

 

We are using Enterprise, we have a company file in it for our agency and we're using the owners Intuit account to save the company file. Recently the owner bought another  agency, same industry. This new agency uses QBO so it has also an Intuit account. I've successfully created a new company file in our QuickBooks Enterprise for this new agency. And  it wants to sign in to an Intuit Account to save the company file. My question is:

 

 Which Intuit account should we use to sign in for this new agency, the owner's Intuit account  or the new agency's Intuit account?

Thank you in advance.

Good evening, @r_mahc. 

 

Congrats on making your first post here in the Community! 

 

With the details you gave, I recommend using the new agency's Intuit account to keep everything separate. Here's some guides to help you out in the future:

 

 

I hope this helped answer your question. I'm only a post away if you need me again. Have a great day!

    Hello @Candice C ,

    Thank you for your suggestion. Appreciate it much. 🙂

    Just a follow up question, I can still use the Enterprise features even if I'm using another Intuit account (new agency's), right?

     

    Thanks.

    Yes, you're right, r_mahc. I'll elaborate more about this in detail below.

     

    An Intuit account is different from your QuickBooks company file user ID. Using it, you can take advantage of additional Intuit services that your business may be connected to, such as QuickBooks Payments, Payroll direct deposit, Payroll Workforce, QuickBooks Time, and Receipt Management.

     

    Furthermore, as long as the license is activated, you're authorized by the owner. Therefore, you can use the basic features, except subscription-based add-ons like payments and payroll.

     

    Additionally, you may want to check out this article if you're having issues logging in to your Intuit account: Recover your Intuit Account if you can’t sign in.

     

    Should you have other verifications in using your Intuit account and accessing your company files, please don't hesitate to leave a reply below. I'll be here ready to lend a hand.
