October 27, 2009

Sebastopol, CA—As your company's accountant-in-chief, the last thing you need is guidance that gets in your way. Other books offer mind-numbing feature tours that are about as clear as tax form instructions. Only QuickBooks 2010: The Missing Manual (O'Reilly Media, $29.99 USD) helps you master QuickBooks and dishes out sound financial advice along the way.

QuickBooks 2010 has impressive features, like financial and tax reporting, invoicing, payroll, time and mileage tracking, and online banking. So how do you avoid spending more time learning the software than using it? This Missing Manual takes you beyond QuickBooks' help resources: you not only learn how this popular program works, but why and when to use specific features.

"Whether small business owners keep books themselves or hire an accountant or bookkeeper, understanding business accounting is a crucial skill. QuickBooks 2010: The Missing Manual helps small business owners understand small business accounting and how to record business transactions using QuickBooks," says author Bonnie Biafore (@bbiafore).

Biafore continues, "With business slow, small business owners are watching every penny. By learning how to use QuickBooks to the fullest, business owners can analyze their financial performance to eke more profit out of sales or cut unnecessary expenses. Businesses can also save money by performing bookkeeping in-house, entering financial transactions correctly, and making fewer calls to their accountants."

QuickBooks can handle many of the financial tasks small companies face, and QuickBooks 2010: The Missing Manual helps you handle QuickBooks with easy step-by-step instructions by showing you the important things you need to know:

  • Set up your QuickBooks files and preferences to fit your company
