Multi-entity accounting definition: Multi-entity accounting involves managing the finances of a company that operates under multiple legal entities.
Multi-entity allows more than one QuickBooks database to sync to the same Method company account. The company account gets divided into the Main "head office" company account, and the "franchisee" sub-entity company accounts.
For more information on Multi-entity accounts, please see What is Multi-entity?
In regards to pricing:
If you are in a trial, and convert to a paid account, all sub-entity trial accounts will convert to paid accounts as well.
Each sub-entity account will be billed a Multi-entity price of $40/month.
A user can be added to multiple sub-entity accounts
Each user will only be billed once per month for each pack they have access to. So if a user in Sub-entity Account A uses the Sales Transactions Pack, and they are also in Sub-entity Account B using the Sales Transactions Pack, they only get charged once.
A Multi-entity account will have one or more Super Admin Roles.
A Super Admin has login access to all sub-entities within the account by default.
A Super Admin is automatically added to all app packs installed on the account across all sub-entities (this cannot be changed).
May incur additional charges depending on the app packs and features in use.
