We have a new Accountant who does not have their own RAH, and we have found this to a regular thing with our previous Accountant also not having their own RAH account.

Can we give them access to our file at tax time?

    Hi @JO-ANNE_7327707

    The accountant will need their own account, as accounts should not be shared. Each user requires their own license, and Hosted logins are designed for individual use, with unique MFA setups. This also ensures compliance with the ATO’s security requirements

    Why doesn't your accountant have their own account? That sounds really odd that they wouldn't have one, it's a business expense.

    @JO-ANNE_7327707

    Do they have Reckon Accounts Desktop if they don't have hosted?

    I don't think so.

    I know a lot of people and Accountants who don't use Reckon. They don't like it.

    you can ask them what reports they want and just print them off for the accountant that's really all he needs

    that exactly what I advise people to do @GerryWinter, I don’t like accountants doing their own thing
