Peachtree for Dummies

I have been a reluctant Peachtree user for the past 3 years mainly because I was introduced to the system as a user task by task as part of my increasing job duties rather than in a comprehensive way or through taking a user class. Consequently, I have had a difficult time figuring out what to do when problems arise or a new task is required. Then I got Peachtree for Dummies and my work-world changed. I'm able to accomplish tasks quicker, more efficiently and with an understanding of how the system integrates, one function effecting another. Using the book has also been invaluable in "problem solving" which has been a huge savings in time and energy. I had to refer to this book frequently over the past year as my bookkeeping tasks increased, and now that I'm more "up to speed" I still keep it handy and use it as needed. I bought a copy for our company headquarters which is located in another city and they're really pleased with the book as well.

I was very pleased with the book very easy to understand and got my book in a timely manner, very fast.

The book takes the technical users manaul and puts into a much more understandable format. The step by step process flows are very helpful. Again, Peachtree for Dummies removes the techie language and adds plain english. All in all, well done.

Peachtree for Dummies is an easy way to learn the basics of Peachtree Software. The book is laid out in a logical order and troubleshooting problems is a simple. I would recommend this book to anyone who is starting out in Peachtree or has just a small working knowledge of it.

Making the jump to Peachtree from Quickbooks was difficult -- not only does Peachtree do things differently than QB but it assumes and demands more accounting acumen than QB -- and I found I needed help to get everything working for my small company. Peachtree is not the friendliest piece of software I've encountered and this book helped me "tame the beast". I would recommend it to anyone who is starting to use Peachtree or even considering Peachtree for their business.
