Solutions 

The methods to tackle this multi-user mode issue in QuickBooks are mentioned underneath- 

Solution 1- Fix the hosting settings of your QuickBooks 

This error develops when the multi-user network gets interrupted. This is possible if the server computer struggles while switching to multi-user mode due to one or more workstations running in multi-user mode and trying to host the company file. Only the server computer should host the company file in multi-other mode and all the systems should access the file in multi-user mode. If this isn’t the condition, QuickBooks won’t be able to set up the multi-user mode and you’ll receive error codes on your screen. Here are the steps to tackle this problem-

1. Go to all the workstations individually (begin on the systems that developed this error).
2. Click on the File option in QuickBooks and select Utilities.
3. Tap the Stop hosting multi-user Access option if it is available. If you see Host multi-user access option, you needn’t do anything as the system is already in single-user mode.
4. Approach the server computer after switching all the workstations to Single-user mode.
5. Go to the File menu and click on the Utilities
6. Tap the Host multi-user access option and reboot your PC.
7. Open the company file on your server computer in multi-user mode.

If the error blocks the setup of the multi-user network again, try the next method.
