For the second year in a row, Intuit has given us a compelling reason to upgrade to QuickBooks Premier for Accountants 2010. My team and I spend most of our day troubleshooting common client data entry errors that are easy to find but can be very time-consuming to correct. That was before the new client data review tools that were introduced in the 2009 version and have been expanded on in 2010.

In addition to the tools introduced in 2009 (troubleshooting account balances, list changes, undeposited funds, sales tax and payroll liabilities, and customer and vendor unapplied payments/credits), this tool now allows you to easily:

* Reclassify hundreds of transactions, or write off multiple invoices, statement charges, and financial charges from a single window
* Identify items with negative inventory in two clicks, then fix them directly in Client Data Review
* Identify and make adjustments to incorrectly set up items, including "one-sided items"
* Automatically fix incorrectly recorded Sales Tax Liability payments

Client Data Review is a must-have feature - I simply couldn't live without it!

I have searched the web and found that many people who use this version of QB's are experiencing on closing down the program the dreaded blue screen of death. On my Windows XP machine every time I close QB 2010 it gives me the blue screen and I have to reboot my computer from scratch. I would avoid this update and wait for next year's version.

I have used QuickBooks exclusively for about 13 years now. I love how it paves the way for small business owners to get a feel for how business is done. I think it is imperitive for small business owners to learn how to use the software correctly as they can get themselves in deep doo doo rather quickly and also think they need other software that, in the end will find out QuickBooks fulfills that need. This said, QuickBooks is not to be underestimated. QuickBooks will take care of you & your business if you understand what it is capable of and how it works. Call your local QuickBooks Pro for guidence, it will definately be worth the effort & money!

Improved Client Data Review is a must for all that do quarterly or annual reviews of clients data, the new feature to correct multiple list items as a group is a gem. Check it out, you will not be disappointed! End the frustration.

Like most CPA firms, we're trying to be paperless and also ensure we have a standardized set of best practices for reviewing our client QuickBooks data. Using the Client Data Review (CDR) feature allows us to do both! In addition to a built-in checklist of items to review, the CDR features time-saving tools that allows you to quickly review and correct client errors. Best of all, you can add notes to the review detailing your procedures or items to consider for next time, and these comments are hidden from your client. This ensures continuity and consistency, and helps ensure you've documented your professional due diligence. More than 95% of our clients use QuickBooks, so we're incorporating the CDR feature as a standard practice within the firm.

The Accountant's version of the QuickBooks 2010 has many new features designed specifically for accountants that will no doubt increase effecienty and office productivity. My new favorite feature is the Client Data Review tool that allows accountants to accurately and easily perform periodic data analysis and adjustments to client files. Another tool for accountants is the improved Intuit Statement Writer that will allow users to quickly and easily create financial statements in an Excel type environment. Added to these features designed for accountants is a long list of new general user features, including a newly designed Report Center, an enhanced Company Snap shot screen, Intuit Check Solutions (on-line deposit of customer payments) and of course the widely talked about Document Management system. I give this product a 5 star rating and encourage all accountants to quickly upgrade their systems. I also encourage all other users to upgrade as well to take advantage of the new features and help improve office effeciency!

It was time to upgrade and this was the best price found thanks Amazon

As a trouble shooter and finding common errors in client's data files I find that one of the best enhancements I've seen with the QuickBooks products is the Client Data Review in the Accountant Edition. The best tools within the feature are being able to track negative inventory quantities, replacing regular generated checks with sales tax module checks and reclassing transactions enmasse, as well as writing off invoices in batches, so you don't waste time doing one at a time.

This updated Version of QuickBooks is full of enchancements other products, and certainly the best solution for small businesses and their accountants. I am really pleased with the updated Intuit Statement Writer that works with this version, the ability to have computer-aided assistance to review possible errors in data entry in the Client Data Review, and the ability to fix the errors as you review. Another great feature this year is the ability to change multiple list items all in the same screen, instead of having to edit each one for changes. Most definitely worth the upgrade, or switch.

QuickBooks Premier, Accountant 2010 is the product to use when reviewing year end numbers and transactions. The improvements to the Client Data Review allow you to easily reclassify a group of transactions as well as find problems with inventory. Another one of my favorite new features is the ability to add/edit multiple list entries. I highly recommend!
