In a May 20, 2013 press release Intuit's President and CEO Brad Smith said he is reorganizing to meet two goals, and #1 is “being the world’s small business operating system”. Microsoft lost the accounting technology battle against Intuit’s QuickBooks® 2years ago, finally giving up support for Money in 2011. Intuit® has enjoyed hands-down market dominance since then. But at the

I wasn't sure why everyone is so excited about Xero, so I asked my friend Ian and this is what he said: -Xero is a truly collaborative platform-contact your accounting professional directly from help, leave comments while performing bank reconciliation, add comments to reports and more. -Xero was built starting in 2006 while QuickBooks Online was built in 1999 and retrofitted to meet the demands

Ever wished you could hit "undo" to go back and try your bank reconciliation again? Reconciling with errors creates a transaction that makes everything look OK, but you know it's not. Now with QuickBooks for Mac 2013 you can go back and "undo" a botched bank reconcilation. TO UNDO A BANK RECONCILIATION 1. Go to "Banking" on the Main Menu 2. Go to "Reconcile", and enter the bank account in the

Few things pay off more in life than keeping fit and staying healthy. Keeping your QuickBooks file healthy pays off big too; a file full of broken links and miss-matched transactions will eventually crash, and it’s never going to happen at a good time. How do you keep your QuickBooks file stable and healthy? In my work I see expensive disasters that could have been prevented at almost no cost if

QuickBooks Year-End Checklist Checklists make work faster and easier, and even a simple checklist can save hours of time at year-end. A Year-End Checklist • Saves time: you do each step in order, you never back-track, duplicate, or do unnecessary work • Increases accuracy: you tackle the issues the that come up only once a year, like Inventory, Fixed Asset depreciation, Owner’s Wages, etc.

I'm a "QuickBooks Expert" and that means when my clients hire me for IRS Form 1099 help they know that even if they made all kinds of QuickBooks mistakes during the year I'll find the mistakes, fix them, and get their 1099's done right. I'm also big fan of training people to do as much of their own work in QuickBooks as makes sense for them and their business. The toughest part of my work isn't

If you're working on a Mac file that doesn't seem stable, or you've just transferred your file from QuickBooks for Windows to QuickBooks for Mac, you should always rebuild your file-right away. Rebuilding finds and repairs missing links, extra data, or other non-conformaties in your data file. If the Rebuild is not working, the data is still unstable or not passing the data integrity check,
