 A couple of my sales staff are a hundred miles away and i would like to give
them limited permissions to access the accounts file. For example I would
want them to generate PO's and acknowledge receipt of goods. Can this be
achieved reasonably easily using QB? I would prefer some kind of synching
rather than having to set my accounts machine up as a server. I currently
use QB Pro 2002 but would be prepared to upgrade.

Thanks

Jon

QB doesn't allow for much 'synching' -- there is a mult-user version, but it
is based on everyone sharing the same data file. There are 3rd party
utilities for synching.

As for giving folks limited access and permissions, well, I've never been
too happy with the restriction types and availabilities. You have the basic
options of Selected areas of QuickBooks or All areas of QuickBooks. The
permissions are defined when you set up the user. The basic versions have
little flexibility (for example, if my assistant has access to the
checkbook, she has access to the paychecks). The Enterprise Edition of the
software address this issue.

Thanks, can you recommend any synching utilities that will function over an
Internet connection?

Regards.

Hi Jon!

You may want to check out QuickBooks Online Edition. Your staff that
are hundreds of miles away will still be able to use log in.
