Software is supposed to be “user friendly”—especially if the user is the person who wrote the program.  In fact, more and more application programs are hitting the market promoting the notion that “you can do it yourself.”  In the accounting arena, one of the most popular programs around is QuickBooks by Intuit.  And it is user friendly—to a point.

QuickBooks is a very versatile accounting package that can do lots of good things, and we recommend it often to our clients who have some basic computer skills and basic knowledge of how to record transactions.  But learning all the ins and outs can be frustrating at times because users are seldom as intuitive as the folks that wrote the manual.  

If this sounds like you, you probably need a savvy accountant that knows how to make QuickBooks software work best for you.  In that case, you’ve come to the right place because we have professionals on staff that can help you in the following areas: 

• Software setup and implementation.  Our staff can help you setup your company in QuickBooks and create the framework necessary to provide you with the financial data you need to run your business.  We also offer training sessions tailored to your needs.

• On and off site troubleshooting.  We’re available to help you with any of the questions that come up in your day to day QuickBooks operations.  If it’s an issue that should be dealt with at your facility, we’ll send one of our qualified staff.  If you prefer, send us a backup and we can research the problem here at one of our offices.

• On-line resource sharing.  We have the capability with our protected Citrix computing environment to share your QuickBooks file with you so that we can help you keep your books in order without falling behind on your day-to-day entries.

So don’t be afraid to get in the swim.  We can help you take charge of your accounting records and keep you up-to-date.
