Whats so tough about quickbooks?
I basically just use the checking register and invoicing function.
Just by entering check transactions, and client information for invoicing you can do all things you want by pulling the right report.
Wanna know how much you did in pruning last month? Last year?
Wanna know how much you spent on fuel this fiscal year versus last?
Wanna print out statements with finance charges for overdue invoices?
Wanna write / print / send each and every client a letter with printed envelopes and labels?
Wanna current profit and loss?
Quickbooks does all of this and it is quite simple actually.
If you can enter and balance or reconcile a checking account register and enter invoicing information you can get everything I mentioned plus more.
My point is its very simple, and just requires you to actually enter the data ( and code it correctly).
I would think your accountant would want it or something similar.
When I started my company, one of the first things I did was hire my accountant, and the first thing he did was install Quickbooks on my cpu and insist that I use it.
I can bring him current financials backed up onto a flash drive and he can work on my books at his place, and im not packing tons of papers and documents around either.
I love my quickbooks. One of my favorite features is the report feature. I love looking at financial trends that the company has endured.
Fuel this year vs last,
insurance this year vs last,
pruning revenue vs removals,
etc, etc,
