Make this Your First QB Manual

November 15, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

There are many QuickBooks manuals that tell how to do complex transactions within the limitations of QB. I have these manuals and they sit dusty on my bookshelf. In contrast, Bonnie tells you step-by-step how to do everyday activities in QB, beginning with the day you establish your company in QB. At 757 pages, Bonnie steps you through every accounting function (CoA, customers, vendors, A/R, A/P, payroll, etc). This is a QB manual that you and your staff can use daily.

Answered all my questions!

I am horrible at book keeping. Not even sure that's how you spell "book keeping". Is it one word or two? Anyway, there were a number of issues I had with building a starting balance, making distributions to shareholders, depreciating props, that sort of thing. Quickbooks has a q&a section which may answer your questions but it's apparently done by an accounting expert who assumes I have a clue. It's all greek to me. The Missing Manual is huge and I've probably used a total of 20 pages but let me tell you, it's saved me hours of frustration and worth every penny when I'm about to rip my hair out!

I bought this book to get caught up on the differences between the new version of QB and the old. This book was a waste of my money...it seems to be written for a first time user (who would be setting up a new company and all that jazz), so the first several chapters are completely useless to me. I bought the kindle version, so it is a pain in the but to keep flipping through several pages of the table of contents to get the the subjects I need. Also, the way the chapters are titled is wacky...you are deceived into thinking a certain title will lead you to a chapter on the information that you are seeking, but it does not! There are not enough visual illustrations, so it is hard to make heads or tails out of the content (unless you are sitting in front of the PC...but even then the awkward wording of the information is still,very hard to follow). Maybe this book might be helpful to a first time user, but for me it was a waste of my money!

After 15 years of using QuickBooks this is by far the best manual. I took a two day QB sponsored course for hundreds of dollars before this manual was published and should have saved the money on the course. Don't the cover intimidate . It is written in easily understandable language and is much superior to the "Dummies" manual. There are ,lots of examples that illustrate the learning.

The book you need for most details of a business

May 20, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

while I have a pretty good background in book keeping and accounting, programmers have a way of confusing anything. The online help in quickbooks, as most of you know, really lacks a lot and isn't for us "book people". I found this book to do the job almost all the time when I need details of how quickbooks treats certain items and a simple How-To on many functions. I have it on the desk next to me all the time so you can actually use this one.

a good book and a great reference. Lite reading it isn't.

Super helpful book.

Being new to QuickBooks, I searched for the best book I could find to guide me. This has been a lifesaver. It's huge
so I haven't read it cover to cover but I have used it as needed when I couldn't figure something out. It hasn't failed me yet.

OK but not great

April 29, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I'll state upfront that I read this on my laptop using Amazon cloud service and found it to be fairly difficult in that not much could fit on a page and you are constantly paging forward or back and illustrations are often not able to fit on the page that is referencing them. That seemed to make reading this more challenging and some of my difficulties could be a result of that.

Other than that, this is a good reference book, although the table of contents is so detailed that it feels like you're ready half the book just to find what you want. There are a lot of topics that are repeated throughout and a few topics that aren't addressed at all.

If you're looking to get a general overview of QB, this book works fine. If you're using it to fine-tune your skills or learn more detailed techniques, there's not a lot of depth to this.

Overall, a good reference book but not the "be-all-end-all" that I was hoping for.

QuickBooks 2014 is another great and complete work of art from Bonnie Biafore !

September 14, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is an awesome book.

The one challenge I would like Bonnie to address in her future versions, is how the vendors (e.g. American Express) work in collaboration with QuickBooks. I am still not clear on how to sync the Amex payments (charges are ok ... go that) just not sure how to allocate the charges so they sync ... even AMEC couldn't (didn't) answer my question after a zillion emails / phone calls !

Still on a positive note ... great book with lots of great ideas, best practices, and step by step instructions on how to do every aspect of QuickBooks accounting.
