Hiring a Bookkeeper - QuickBooks
I have decided to hire a part time bookkeeper. I have been using QuickBooks Pro 2015. Do I just back up the company file and give it to them? I see there is an Accountant Copy that I can make. Is that the smarter way? Here is my conundrum: If I make a bookkeeper user that is not full admin and give her the backup she can import and do all kinds of great things, when I get the updated file I don't think I will be allowed to because she uses Accountant and I use Pro. What is the "right" way to do this?
Thanks for the input!

Have you ever attempted to setup a RDC(remote desktop connection)? This would allow the bookkeeper to essentially log in to the company file from anywhere. For example where I work now, we have a server computer and everyone "RDC's" into the computer and multiple people are working in the same quickbooks file at the same time. I even log in from home sometimes to get some late night work in.
