Can I track two companies with QB Pro, or do I need two copies of the s/w?

I'm going to be owning and running two new companies: Company 1 will
own the real estate and building and will lease them to Company 2, a
school. C1 will have no employees and very low G/L activity; C2 will
have perhaps 60 employees and moderate to high G/L activity.

Can I track both companies using QB Pro, or do I need two copies of
the software? Payroll is not an issue as it will be outsourced.

Yes and no, respectively.

The answer is NO, you do not need to copies of QuickBooks Pro. The fact that
one
company will have PR and the other will not has no bearing. ---APS

Just FYI - We have about 400 company files for testing and they're all
on a local area network. We use the same copy of QB to use any of
them.
