A multi-user
network in QuickBooks Desktop refers to the ability to have multiple users
access the same company file at the same time over a network. This feature
allows multiple people to work on the same set of financial data
simultaneously, which can be particularly useful for businesses with several
team members who need to access and update the company’s accounting
information.
With multi-user access, different users can have
different levels of permissions, allowing them to view and edit only the
information that they are authorized to access. For example, some users may be
restricted to viewing reports and other financial data, while others may be
able to enter transactions and make changes to the company file.
