Are the USCIS Receipt Number and USCIS Online Account number the same thing?

I can't find the answer to this anywhere.  We are applying for adjustment of status after completed our K1 process. 

 

Thanks!

No receipt number is the number you get when they accept your petition

 

Online account number is not assigned to you and you will get one if you file your application online .

As the petitioner, I filed two I-130 forms online for both of my parents. However, the profile page have the USCIS online number associated with my name. Am I able to use the same USCIS online account number for both of my parents I-485 and other forms where it asks for "USCIS Online Account Number," since the USCIS account is set up under my name from when I filed their I-130s online and I plan on adding "paper-filed" forms to track under this same account, which would be mine? Or...is the USCIS Online Account Number specific to the individual, and thus, leave that field blank on the I-485 et al, and manually add the paper files upon receipt under my account? 

 

The I-485s I'm preparing for them currently have the USCIS online account number associated with my account. It just made sense to me at the time, since...why would a USC have a random USCIS online account number? However, now I'm thinking it is incorrect and need clarification please.

Thanks in advance.

@jess2go Were you able to link those two cases to your Online Account? I am in a similar situation and I can see my I-130 but when I tried to add my wife's I-485/I-131/I-175  by their receipt numbers, It said they were already assigned to a different Online Account Number, so I'm guessing you need two accounts to track everything? (Petitioner account for I-130 and Beneficiary account for the other 3?)
