QuickBooks 2006 The Missing Manual
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
In the last couple of years, Intuit has added many new tools and features to QuickBooks to help small business owners run and manage their businesses more effectively. Many of these features are strong resource management tools that just a few years ago, mid-sized businesses only dreamed of. But many of the 2,000,000 QuickBooks users are, by their very nature, small business owners who understand their business better than they understand accounting in general. Intuit provides far better documentation for QuickBooks users than what most other software publishers provide, especially packages that cost less than $1,000. But Intuit often just provides a very matter of fact description of important features and reports. Therefore features that could be exceedingly helpful to the user are oftentimes overlooked or not used. Frequently the business owner doesn't see why or how the feature will benefit them in running their business. "QuickBooks 2006 The Missing Manual", by Bonnie Bialifore, picks up where Intuit has left off in providing the whys of QuickBooks features. Her book provides the information with many real business scenarios. Now this gives the average QuickBooks user a bridge from just using the program for basic accounting functions to also using its many additional features and reports. And therefore, they have additional tools to easily manage their business with one program. I would strongly recommend "QuickBooks 2006 The Missing Manual" to any QuickBooks user. Although technical in nature, it is easy to read and has many great ideas.
Solid walk through on Quickbooks

This is a solid book on Quickbooks. The examples are good. The writing is clear and direct. Screenshots are there, but not overused as in books from other vendors. And best of all there is practical advice on using the product in the large ecosystem of a person's personal finances. And that's really what the average Quickbooks user needs.
