Acknowledgments

Behind the scenes, a throng of folks work hard to make a book (and me) look as good as we do. I am always grateful for the improvements that people make to my writing. My words (and bookkeeping) are better for it. Dawn Mann outdid herself this year piloting this book through the shoals of publishing. Special thanks to Fred Brown for building an index that helps you find all the information you want (especially important given the complete absence of an index in QuickBooks Help).

I also want to thank the technical reviewer, Elaine Brown. She provided dozens of examples of how things work in the real accounting world and was brave enough to help me understand some concepts that had eluded me so far. And last, but definitely not least, my agent Neil Salkind deserves an award for his unwavering support for more than a decade.

Introduction

Thousands of small companies and nonprofit organizations turn to QuickBooks to keep their finances on track. And over the years, Intuit has introduced various editions of the program to satisfy the needs of different types of companies. Back when milk was simply milk, you either used QuickBooks or you didnt. But now, when you can choose milk from soybeans and rice as well as cows, and with five different levels of fat, its no surprise that QuickBooks comes in Simple Start, Pro, Premier, Online, and Enterprise editions (which, in some cases, are dramatically different from their siblings), as well as six industry-specific editions. From the smallest of sole proprietorships to burgeoning enterprises, one of these editions is likely to meet your organizations needs and budget.

QuickBooks isnt hard to learn. Many of the features that youre familiar with from other programs work just the same way in QuickBookswindows, dialog boxes, drop-down lists, and keyboard shortcuts, to name a few. And with each new version, Intuit has added enhancements and new features to make your workflow smoother and faster. The challenge is knowing what to do according to accounting rules, and how to do it in QuickBooks.

Whats New in QuickBooks 2012

  • In addition to batch invoices for the same items and amounts ().

  • You can create a batch of timesheets if you enter the same timesheet info for several employees or vendors ().

  • The new Inventory Center () looks like other QuickBooks centers, such as the Customer Center. Inventory items appear on the left side of the window, while details and transactions related to the selected inventory item appear on the right.

  • Integration with Excel has gotten a lot smarter. Now you can export reports to Excel and update data in existing worksheets without mangling their formulas and formatting ().

  • You can now obtain report templates from others in the Intuit Community () and share report templates youve created.

  • QuickBooks Help now provides a single way to access all your help options. You can search QuickBooks Help and troubleshooting topics, as well as view questions and answers from the Intuit Community all from the Have a Question? window ().

  • With the To Do List (), you can set up tasks, phone calls, emails, meetings, and appointments with leads, customers, or vendors.
