Why. QuickBooks for Dummies does nothing to remove the mystery of QuickBooks and explain how the system works. He deleted the entry that showed the debit to cash and credit to revenue. Specifically.
As a CPA I find QuickBooks frustrating and difficult to use because, sometimes, it does mysterious things with transactions and does not provide reports (also known as an audit trail) that permit someone to verify that the reports are correct. What can be done to correct this problem without causing other, unintended consequences elsewhere in the system. However, in the bank reconciliation the deleted deposit showed up as a check outstanding. For example, transactions (receipts and disbursements) that it does not know how to handle end up in a balance sheet account called "Beginning Equity".
a client received from one of his customers a check that bounced. The book gave no guidance how to deal with such an event. For another, a user can get a report of cash disbursements with a total; but one would not know whether the report is consistent with the general ledger since the total of the disbursements cannot be traced to the reduction of the cash account. It only tells the reader how transactions should be processed but says nothing informative about how to correct mistakes.
I sent an email asking if I could exchenge this and have never received a reply. I received the item even though I had wanted Quicken for Dummies-Vista version.
The books has proven helpful in the areas where I have used it thus far.
It is quick and easy to understand and has helped with getting the QuickBooks system in place for my business. This book has a permanent place in my office as I use it often as a reference.
Love Amazon dot com and its vendors offering "used" items. Ordered it, it came within DAYS in great shape at a great price. I'm an Amazon addict. Needed help with the program, saw this book was a great solution.first place I went to was Amazon dot com.found it. Computer Tech had it at a great price.bang.
