Account management

You can easily assign a new admin within your QuickBooks Online account, SECCNation.

 

Just a heads-up, the current admin is the only one who can make the change. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

 

  1. Go to the Gear or Settings ⚙ icon, then select Manage users.
  2. Find the user you want to make the primary admin.
  3. Proceed to the Role column, then make sure they are listed as Admin. If they’re not, choose Edit to change their role to admin.
  4. If the user is already an admin, click the drop-down list beside Edit. Then, select Make primary admin.
  5. Select Change primary admin to confirm the change.

You can also use this guide if you have QuickBooks Desktop: Transfer the primary admin role in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

If you can no longer get in touch with the current admin, you can fill out a form and submit several documents. This typically includes a photo ID, a signed letter of permission from the owner, and official business documents like articles of organization.

 

The exact requirements, however, can vary depending on your business entity. For a complete list of what you'll need and the steps to submit the form, please refer to this article: Request to be the primary admin or contact.
