They both have separate companies and there will be NO need that they can access each others files. So these installations will be completely independent from each other, NO simultaneous access will be necessary. Can this be achieved with the above type of purchase? On how many computers can we use QB with this purchase? I, Person 1 have my own Intuit login credentials to sign in to QB desktop pro , will Person 2 be able to create their OWN Intuit account and login and use that to separately access QB on their desktop?

Thanks for reaching out to the Community for support. I'm happy to provide some insight into the plan you wish to purchase. First, let's cover what it means to purchase users in QuickBooks Desktop. When you purchase users, this is how many people can be logged into a single company file at one time. For example, you say you wish to purchase two users, this means that both user 1 and user 2 can log into the same company file at the same time.

Now that we covered what purchasing users mean let's cover the install process. When you purchase QuickBooks, you are free to install QuickBooks on as many computers as you need. So, yes, you can install it on 4 computers. With that being said, since you've stated that you and the other user will be working in two separate files with no need of communication with the other, it wouldn't be necessary to purchase two users unless you wanted to. Instead, you would work in the two different company files, on your own computer.

However, since user 2 needs to install both on her desktop and laptop, they would need to make sure that they create a copy of the file and transfer it to the computer they wish to work on that day. Or, they can connect the computers through the network to access the file from the opposite computer. As to your concerns for user two having their own Intuit account, you can add them to your Intuit account and create their own user name. I've included the link below to do this.

Please note that an Intuit user is different from a QuickBooks user. Whereas a QuickBooks user is the person who signs in to the company file. I'm including a few links below that cover the install process and explains more about users in QuickBooks Desktop that you may find beneficial.

QuickBooks Desktop Users and Restrictions. Add a user license to your QuickBooks software. Install QuickBooks Desktop. That should do it. Let me know if you have additional questions or concerns. I want to be sure that you fully understand the process. I'll be here every step of the way. Have a wonderful weekend, and feel free to reach out to the Community at any time! We would have bought 1 license but have 2 users wanting to install on a total of 3 computers and working in different company files.

Even though they will never work in the same company file, they might be logged into QB and work in QB at the same time of day. Is that possible? As mentioned, yes, you can install one license to three different computers. However, each user can only use the program one at a time. To access and use the company file on different computers at the same time, you'll have to purchase three licenses and switch to multi-user mode.

Please refer to this article to learn how: Set up and Install a Multi-user Network. For your second question, you can access your company files from other computers once you're in a multi-user environment. However, working on different files at the same time isn't possible. Since the multi-user network has one computer that hosts your company files, you can only access the same file at the same time.

Additionally, to see the features offered in QuickBooks Desktop Pro, please check our plans and pricing. You can also compare the tasks that can be performed in single or multi-user mode by checking this article: Features Available in QuickBooks. So even if those 2 users happen to sit in two different rooms at the same time of the day, but on different computers and want to access -different- company files, that is not possible at the same time?

I understand that they cannot work on the same company file at the same time, but it is not possible for them to be on different computers and work on different files? I appreciate you for the quick response, manrat. You'll want to make sure that the Multi-user mode is turned on, so the two users can access different company files on another computer even if there aren't in the same place. By using the Multi-user network, one computer hosts your company files.

This is your server computer. All other computers connected to your network that don't host your company files are called workstations and that could be the two users. Also, I'd suggest keeping your company files on your server computer's local hard drive.

This makes it easier to share them over your network. Then follow the next steps in this article: Set up and install a multi-user network for QuickBooks Desktop. That should take care of it. I'm also leaving you some articles about hosting for additional reference:. Please keep me posted if you have any other concerns about this process. I want to make sure everything is taken care of for you. You can reach out to the Community at any time.

Take care, and have a great day! Intuit server will connect your machines from time to time to verify your license. It will depend on your scenario at your office. To save your cost, you may purchase thee license thru a partner with current discounted price.

This thread has confused me. According to the license at the link below, one can install QB Desktop purchased with a single-user license on two computers for use by one person 3. With a multi-user license, one can install the product on as many computers as user licenses, and it can be used by that many people not that many people simultaneous, simply that many people 3. So, it does not seem to me that you can install a single-user QB license on as many computers as you want, or that you can have an unlimited number of users use it so long as the number simultaneously using the product does not exceed the number of user licenses.

The single user can be installed on other computers, but cannot be used simultaneously. In short, it can't networked. Multi-user on the other hand can be installed on another device and all can use at the same time. It is the EULA that restricts one to supposedly only one extra install on a second device and that limits you to using only one device at a time even if accessing two different company files. The EULA is somewhat vague when refering to an individual and their license but in theory if a license is in the name of one individual they cannot legally allow their employee or even spouse to use the licensee computer to run QB.

Impractical for sure. And that is where muliple, not multi, users come into play. On a single install the admin can add users who would log in one at a time on a shared single computer, just like having different users loggingn n to windows. No additional license or install as it is physically impossible for more than one user to log in at a time.

They are. Yeah, I'm still confused. I believe we may be confusing the right to install and use the software vs. My comments above related to the right to install and use the software.

Am I correct in asserting that, if I buy one single-user license, I can install the software on up to two computers but only for one person's use? If I buy two single-user licenses, I can install the software on up to four computers two for each license but only for the use of two persons? Again, this seems to contradict what I understand you to be saying, but perhaps we are talking past each other.

Let me share some information to help ease your confusion, stevebr. Yes, you're correct in your assertions. When using QuickBooks, we follow a simple rule of thumb:. This simply means that if you purchased a 1-user license for QuickBooks Desktop, you can install it to 1 primary computer, and 1 additional computer e.

Feel free to click the Reply button below if you have other questions or concerns. I'm always here to help. However, from what I now understand, by downloading the same license on two different computers operated by the same user, the information that is input at one location ie. Is this correct? Hi, I am not sure if my last reply posted because I was not logged in, so I will write it again.

From what I now understand, even though you can download the desktop version using the same license on two computers ie. Is this correct?? You are allowed to install a license for 1 user on 2 different machines as long as they are not running at the same time. You have to copy your company file between 2 machines manually.

As another option, utilize a remote desktop app. You don't need to migrate the file again. I need 3 ppl to be able to use the same file at the same time. I am unsure of the steps - I quickbooks copy on the 3 computers but then buy addl licenses? If you purchased a 1-user license for QuickBooks Desktop, you can install it on 1 primary computer.
