@danny310,

RE: Primary admin / Secondary Admin

 

There is some misconception here.

 

In QB Desktop there is only one real Admin and that is the user account called admin (although the sign-in name can be changed).

 

Another user can be granted all the rights but it is still not the primary admin.

 

For you to become the admin of the company file, you would need the password for the admin user.

 

As a side note, it is not recommended to utilize the admin user for steady use. In case of user corruption, the admin which technically owns the file is safe.
