That QBO Online still does not have a view only role is absurd. The "View Company Report" role is not the same as giving an employee's access to view transaction details without the risk of this employee editing or deleting the transactions. Looking at reports with a total line item is not the same as seeing details that made up this total line item.

For example, an employee from Sales Dept should be able to view an invoice detail without the access to edit or delete the invoice. A sales, marketing, or operational manager should be able to see what are charged to relevant expenses without being able to edit or delete anything, a consultant asked to analyze a company's performance should be able to drill down to look at details of transactions but again not be able to make changes.  And the list goes on...

It really can't be that difficult to create such a role. Please advise if this frequent request made by users is something that is in the queue of that QBO team will look into. Thanks.
