Administrators can also use QuickBooks Time to add team members, send invitations, manage permissions, and review time data. If you are having trouble signing in, resetting your password, or accessing your account, this guide explains the steps you can follow.

What Is QuickBooks Time Login?

QuickBooks Time Login is the sign-in process used to access your QuickBooks Time account. Depending on your role, you may use QuickBooks Time to track working hours, manage timesheets, review employee activity, or administer your company's time-tracking settings.

QuickBooks Time works with an Intuit Account, so an existing Intuit login may be used instead of creating a separate set of credentials. Employees must generally be invited to the company's QuickBooks Time account before they can set up and use their account.

How to Complete QuickBooks Time Sign In

If you already have an account and have received an invitation from your employer or administrator, follow these general steps for QuickBooks Time sign in:

1. Open the QuickBooks Time sign-in page on your computer.
2. Enter your email address or user ID.
3. Select Sign In.
4. Enter your password when prompted.
5. Complete any additional verification requested.
6. Once authenticated, you can access the features available to your account.

If you have forgotten your password, you may be able to use a one-time code instead of entering your password. Intuit currently allows eligible users to request a code through the email address or phone number associated with the account. 

Where Can I Find the QuickBooks Time Login Page?

The QuickBooks Time login page is used when you want to access your account directly rather than entering QuickBooks Time through another QuickBooks product.

After signing in, the options you see can vary according to your role and account permissions. Administrators generally have access to team-management and company settings, while employees usually have access to their own time-tracking features.

QuickBooks Time can also be accessed through QuickBooks Online for eligible subscriptions. In QuickBooks Online, go to All apps > Time > Overview, then select Go to Classic QuickBooks Time when that option is available. 

QuickBooks Time Employee Login: Step-by-Step

The QuickBooks Time employee login process is slightly different from what an administrator may see because employees usually receive an invitation before accessing the company's time-tracking account.

Step 1: Check Your Invitation

Your administrator needs to add you to the company's QuickBooks Time team and send an invitation. Employees can be invited through email or text message when the appropriate contact information is available. 

Step 2: Open the Invitation

Open the invitation and follow the instructions provided.

If you already have an Intuit Account, you may be able to use your existing credentials. Otherwise, you may be asked to create an account.

Step 3: Complete Your Account Setup

Follow the prompts to finish setting up your account.

Step 4: Sign In

Return to the QuickBooks Time login page and enter your email or user ID and password.

Step 5: Start Tracking Time

Once logged in, you can access the time-tracking features made available to you by your employer.

Employees can also use QuickBooks Workforce for mobile time tracking. 

How Can an Admin Set Up QuickBooks Time Login for Employees?

Administrators need to add employees to the company's time team before employees can access QuickBooks Time.

To invite team members through QuickBooks Time:

1. Sign in to QuickBooks Time.
2. Go to My Team.
3. Select Add team members.
4. Choose Send invitations.
5. Select the employees you want to invite.
6. Choose email or text invitation.
7. Select Invite Team Members.

The employee can then create a new Intuit Account or use an existing one to sign in. 

Administrators can also add employees through QuickBooks Online by going to All apps > Time > Time team > Add team members.

QuickBooks Time Employee Portal: What Can Employees Do?

After completing the QuickBooks Time employee portal login, employees can use the features their administrator has enabled.

Depending on the company's setup, employees may be able to:

• Clock in and clock out.
• Record working hours.
• Submit timesheets.
• Track time against customers or jobs.
• Review their recorded hours.
• Use QuickBooks Workforce on a mobile device.
• Manage certain account or profile information.

The exact options available can vary depending on the user's permissions and company configuration.

How to Use QuickBooks Time Mobile App Login

For employees who work away from a computer, the QuickBooks Time mobile app login process can be completed through the QuickBooks Workforce mobile app.

To sign in:

1. Open QuickBooks Workforce on your mobile device.
2. Select Sign In.
3. Enter your email address or user ID.
4. Select Sign In.
5. Enter your password if requested.
6. If necessary, select the option to sign in another way.

Intuit's current sign-in instructions specifically provide a one-time-code option through QuickBooks Workforce when a user cannot remember their password. 

QuickBooks Time Login Not Working? Try These Fixes

If your QuickBooks Time login not working problem prevents you from accessing your account, work through the following checks.

1. Verify Your Email or User ID

Make sure you are entering the same email address or user ID associated with your Intuit Account.

A simple spelling error can prevent a successful sign-in.

2. Check Your Password

Passwords are case-sensitive. Carefully enter your password and check whether Caps Lock is enabled.

If you cannot remember the password, use the available password recovery or one-time-code option.

3. Try a One-Time Code

If you cannot sign in with your password, select the option to sign in another way and request a code through the email address or phone number connected to your account. 

4. Check Your Internet Connection

A weak or unstable internet connection can interfere with the login process. Try opening another website to confirm that your connection is working properly.

5. Try Another Browser

If the login page does not load correctly, try another supported browser. You can also close and reopen the current browser before attempting to sign in again.

6. Clear Browser Cache

Old cached information can sometimes interfere with websites. Clear your browser's cached data and cookies, restart the browser, and try logging in again.

7. Check Your Employee Invitation

If you are a new employee and cannot access the account, ask your administrator to verify that your invitation was sent successfully. Administrators can resend an invitation from the team member's details in QuickBooks Time. 

How to Complete QuickBooks Time Password Reset

A QuickBooks Time password reset may be necessary if you cannot remember your current password.

If you are already signed in and want to change your password:

1. Open your profile menu in QuickBooks Time.
2. Select Profile.
3. Choose Manage User ID / Password.
4. Select Sign in & security.
5. Choose Password.
6. Follow the prompts to update your password.
7. Select Save.

How to Recover a QuickBooks Time Account

If you do not remember which email address, phone number, or user ID is associated with your account, you may need to use the QuickBooks Time account recovery process.

Before beginning account recovery, gather any information you may remember about the account, such as:

• Email addresses you may have used.
• Phone number associated with the account.
• Intuit user ID.
• Information from your employee invitation.
• Details provided by your QuickBooks Time administrator.

Account recovery is particularly useful when the normal password reset process cannot identify the correct account. 

QuickBooks Time Time Tracking Login for Employees

The QuickBooks Time time tracking login gives employees access to their company's time-tracking tools.

Once logged in, employees can use the available clock-in, clock-out, timesheet, and time-entry features. If the company uses QuickBooks Workforce, employees can also track time from a mobile device.

For businesses using QuickBooks Online with QuickBooks Time, time information can flow into areas such as payroll and invoicing, depending on the company's setup. 

Can an Admin Resend a QuickBooks Time Invitation?

Yes. If an employee did not receive the original invitation or the invitation expired, an administrator can resend it.

Go to:

QuickBooks Time > My Team > Select the Team Member > General > Resend Invite

The employee can then use the new invitation to complete the account setup.
