I have a friend that wants me to do his bookkeeping remotely but he is using Reckon Accounts Plus 2019 on a desktop computer, is there a way to make this happen?

    You could log into his computer via Teamviewer or Ultraviewer or similar.

    Thanks so much, seems a bit expensive to run with teamviewer on top of the reckon licence, will have to look at something else.

    Heather, TeamViewer is free for personal use.  Just a thought.

    I have read that Gerry.  We haven't had any problems, and it is just a thought.  People can try it and see if it works, or their account could be cancelled.

    I use TeamViewer when I need to work to from home, other option is to move to reckon hosted. Its just a bugger when the internets down.
