For QuickBooks multi-user mode, each user can only log in
once, however, there may be recurring prompts while a user attempts to log in
within multi-user mode. Any attempt to log in with a particular username fails
with errors such as – "The attempt to log in with the username
"XXXX" failed”, “Error 404:
File Not Found”, “The web page cannot be found, “QBO is currently unavailable,
please try again later”. It basically
suggests that the user is already logged into the company file and if possible
try to login with a different username.
REASONS FOR “USER
ALREADY LOGGED IN ERROR”
• While logging in
remotely, the accountant did not log out from his previous session
• The user is
already logged into the company files from a different workstation or location
using the same credentials
