To support your clients, you’ll need to know your way around their QuickBooks Online
companies.
It’s time we worked with a QuickBooks Online client company. Let’s take a look at Craig’s
Landscaping. Craig needs your help fast if his business is to meet its potential.
You can effortlessly switch between QuickBooks Online Accountant and your clients. The
Client Switcher drop-down menu in the top toolbar contains all your clients, allowing you to
move between accounts without having to return to your practice's QuickBooks Online
Accountant page each time.
The clients you see in the Client List are the clients’ accounts you have access to. In this
lesson, you’ll see the basics of a client's QuickBooks Online company.
When you work with your client companies through QuickBooks Online Accountant, you can
access features and menu options that the client won’t ever see. These allow you to efficiently
carry out bookkeeping-only or accountant-only tasks.
