QuickBooks is the bookkeeping software that most small businesses use; and it’s what I recommend for all my clients. This section gives an overview of QuickBooks, how to set up your company file, and start entering basic transactions.
Before starting this course, think about your goals with a bookkeeping system. What do you want to know about your business? Do you want to understand the profitability of different crops? Do you want to know if it makes sense to sell at a farmer’s market? Knowing the questions you want to answer will help you set up a system to get there.
At the end of the section, participants will understand:
The difference between online and desktop versions; and how to decide which is best for their own needs
How to set up a Chart of Accounts to best track financial data and give you the information you need to understand your business
The process for completing basic transactions like paying bills, creating invoices and making deposits
Classes and how they can help a business owner track the profitability of different enterprises
