Customer Reviews

Saved my sanity!

QuickBooks 2007 On Demand This is a lifesaver and you wouldn't think it at first blush! I am a Mac user and an Artist/Illustrator, so as you can imagine, book keeping is not an obsession of mine. I was at my wits end trying to set this program up using the tiny, little, diminutive (get the idea?) folder that came with the program and the help menu... Help!!! This book walks you through every step as if you were... well, ME! It is easy to find what you need on the fly, and there are enough illustrations to make it seem easy! There are also tips that will make you look really good at the Chamber-o-Commerce meeting when shared and takes the mystery out of all of those arcane accounting terms. My only complaint is with the program - the Mac version does not have the timer... [...]

Get what you want out of QuickBooks quickly and painlessly.

I'm a techie with no interest in accounting or QuickBooks, but out of necessity to take care of my business I bought this book. I must say it has painlessly taught me everything that I need to know, and the style of it is just fantastic to keep as a reference manual. The plain language, diagrams, and "learn-what-you-need" format make it a valuable addition to any business owner's library. If you don't like searching pages and pages of text to get that one little bit of info you need, then this book is a perfect choice. If you'd like a book to read cover-to-cover for in-depth knowledge of QuickBooks, then this book is also the perfect choice.

Very easy to read book!

This is actually one of the best, well written computer books I've read. It is easy to find what you need and has step by step instructions with pictures to help you learn what it is that you are trying to do. This book is a must if you have QuickBooks 2007!

The Paper Plan-it

This book is awesome. It not only clearly defines how to implement Quickbook features, but touches on the basics of accounting as well. I've never been impressed enough with a reference manual to write a review, but I had to for this one. It is perfect for me.

A QuickWay to Learn QuickBooks

I am going to presume (I know that's not very smart, but I'm going to do it anyway) that you're already decided on Quickbooks software. So the reason you're reading this book review is to determine if you want to buy this book to learn what to do with it. This book is pare of Que's 'On Demand' series of books. It's a visual quick reference guide that uses a task oriented philosophy to show/describe how to do things in Quickbooks. Specifically, say you want to Schedule a Recurring Transaction, that is, a bill that needs to be paid the tenth of every month for the same amount. You can look up: Recurring Transactions or Scheduled Transactions in the index or Scheduling Recurring Transactions in the Table of Contents. All of these lead you to page 189. Page 189 is printed with two columns. The left hand column has a set of instructions on how to do the task. The right hand column has pictures of what the screen should look like as you follow the instructions. So you read through the whole book quickly, learning at least the basic idea of what you can do. Get Quickbooks installed (page 2), register it (page 5), and work you way through the first couple of chapters. Then skip around to get what you want done, as you decide to implement those features. It's a pretty handy way to learn a software system.
