Endorsed by the program's publisher, QuickBooks: The Official Guide is a very good resource for those who use QuickBooks or QuickBooks Pro as a tool for small-business management. As you would expect, this book gives detailed explanations of every last interface feature of both applications. In that sense, this is an excellent supplement to the manuals that come with those programs. The author--a CPA--has packed much more than procedures into this book. You'll find solid business advice, including some very good tax tips. QuickBooks: The Official Guide doesn't shy away from noting QuickBooks' shortcomings and suggesting workarounds for them. In the area of inventory, for example, Ivens points out that QuickBooks can't "freeze" levels during a physical count and offers a way to simulate such a feature. Similar hints appear for keeping track of petty cash (including that which gets dispensed from ATMs) and many other topics. This book includes nifty, lifelike scenarios that help untangle potentially difficult situations, such as payroll garnishments for child support and tax payments to multiple states. These brief, very readable features are this book's real gems. --David Wall Book Description
