Definitely Definitive Guide to Premier Editions

Great book for discussing the advantages of the Premier editions. If you are looking for the basic quickbooks user guide, then you need "Quickbooks 2004, The Official Guide" (which covers Quickbooks Pro & Basic). However, you need this book in addition to "The Official Guide" if you own a Premier edition and you want to get the most out of it. The information on importing in "Chart of Accounts" (and other lists), setting up "Item Assemblies" (complete with assigning additional costs beyond just parts), and "Tips for you industry" are all well worth the cost of the book.

Every nonprofit needs this book

Two of the nonprofit associations I work with have been struggling with QuickBooks for years - now the struggle is over. QuickBooks is the only affordable software for small organizations, but what we spend on accountant's fees to interpret and straighten out the QuickBooks reports is probably more than high-cost software would have cost. With this book, we learned how to adapt QuickBooks so it works much better for nonprofit associations. The information we can get is amazing, we never before had such a clear understanding of our finances, and our sources of donations. This book is so clearly written, and so filled with information about "how to do it right", that it should be a required purchase for every small nonprofit association that's formed.Blessings on Kathy Ivens for this treasure of a book!

A great resource for accountants

This book is filled with information that's practical and useful. As an accountant supporting Quickbooks clients running various editions of the software, I turn to this book all the time. All the tips about managing the various editions of Quickbooks are amazing. Learning how to create customized import files to send to clients has made supporting Quickbooks so much easier. There's information in this book I've tried to get from Intuit for years, but never could.
