Can user ID be anything or have to be email address

I'll go over some details on the difference between the user ID and email address when creating your Intuit account, brtirewholesale.

Typically, your User ID is your e-mail address. The email address you use to create your first account in QuickBooks turns into your Intuit Account user ID. Then, we'll send you a link with instructions to verify your email address, and you're all set.

If you see This user ID is already taken, you might already have an account. Follow the I forgot my user ID or password steps in our account recovery article to get into your account. For more details about your account, see this article: Create an Intuit Account.

However, if you want to have a different User ID, you can just change it by going through the Sign-in & security menu. Here's how:

1. Log in to accounts.intuit.com, then go to the Sign-in & security menu at the left pane.
2. Click the User ID section to change it.
3. Enter your password, then hit Save to complete.

Here's an article that can help you learn more about the verification process: Update or change your Intuit Account sign-in information.
