A bookkeeper cannot grant project managers in QuickBooks Online Advanced both full Time Tracking access and Bill Approval without giving them full administrative rights due to a software limitation.
QuickBooks Online Advanced's custom roles do not allow combining full Time Tracking access with Bill Approval; the only built-in role with both is Company Admin, which grants excessive permissions.
Workarounds Described
- Giving project managers Company Admin access despite security concerns
Implied Software Gaps
- A permission management tool that allows combining discrete QuickBooks permissions like full Time Tracking and Bill Approval into one custom role
