Credentials:

  • Advanced Certified QuickBooks Professional Advisor

  • Certified QuickBooks Professional Advisor since 1999

  • Enterprise Solutions Certified QuickBooks Professional Advisor

 

Targeted Training

  • The chart of accounts is the core of every version of QuickBooks; I begin by making sure you have a clear understanding of your accounts and how they relate to the Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss. 

  • Next is understanding how QuickBooks interacts with those accounts with an explanation of the different types of forms and lists that QuickBooks uses to make managing your business easier.

  • Given the size and scope of this program, I first focus on teaching you the areas of QuickBooks you will be using, but also take time to make you aware of the areas that you don't use - this way you know what is available for your future needs.

  • When you need more than a basic understanding, we will address more advanced features as they apply to your company.

  • Having taught QuickBooks for many years, I am aware of the most confusing issues for most people and will help to clarify those areas, saving you time in the future.

Top Mistakes

  • Lacking a clear understanding of account types (using "Bank" type instead of "Credit Card" type)

  • Assigning the wrong type to an account (an expense is assigned an income type)

  • Not using or fully understanding QuickBooks fabulous reconciliation process

  • Using Item types wrong (especially for inventory)

  • Confusion about paying bills (using "Write Checks" instead of "Pay Bills")

  • Confusion on making deposits

  • Confusion on liability payments

  • Confusion on entering money spent by owner for the business and personal expenses paid by the company

  • Wrong dates - QuickBooks is a date driven software and dating transactions correctly directly affects the financial statements

  • Deleting or changing reconciled transactions

  • Inadvertently using multiple data files
