QuickBooks Professional 2011/12
MulticurrencyWith QuickBooks Pro you can record, track and account for foreign transactions regardless of the currency used. Tracking these foreign-currency transactions is as easy as selecting the foreign customer or supplier from your list; QuickBooks Pro takes care of everything else. With multicurrency, you can also set up a fixed foreign price for items, or enter prices in your home currency and then have QuickBooks Pro calculate the foreign price based on the current exchange rate. The home currency refers to the currency that is used in the country in which your business is located. Automatically track inventory items in different units of measureYou may buy the same item in one unit of measure, stock it in another, and sell it in yet another. QuickBooks can automate the conversion from one unit of measure to another as the item moves through your business, helping you avoid costly mistakes. That means you can buy and sell products in precisely the way your suppliers and customers prefer. Monitor and analyse key projectsJob cost tracking is an extremely important part of a business. Job costing means tracking the expenses for a job and then comparing those expenses to the job's revenue. This shows you which jobs are making money and which are not. Job costing can also help you estimate more accurately. Estimating may be the most important - and most difficult - part of running a business. But unless you compare your estimated costs to your actual costs after the work is complete, you have no way to know if you are estimating too high or low, and no way of improving your ability to estimate in the future. The QuickBooks job cost reports make it easy for you to compare your estimated costs to actual costs. Monitor business performanceMore than 100 reports and graphs can be generated within the Reports Centre to help you keep a close eye on your business. With just one click you can also drill down into reports to find detailed financial information. You can even convert the report into a PDF file for email, so the recipient views the report just as you see it in QuickBooks. Manage your business more effectively QuickBooks is much more efficient than spreadsheets, word-processing or paper ledgers. Quickly and easily manage basic tasks like printing cheques, paying bills, generating reports, invoicing customers and tracking expenses. You'll spend less time and money on bookkeeping and paperwork – and have more time to work on other important areas of your business. Increased efficiency with advanced toolsSave your business undue costs by utilising QuickBooks email functionality. Invoices, statements, estimates, purchase orders, sales orders, sales receipts, adjustment notes, and reports can all arrive on your suppliers or customers desktop within minutes. There is no need to separately track your contact lists - you can easily synchronise your contact information with Microsoft® Outlook. Work more efficiently with your accountant or bookkeeperThe Accountant's copy of your company data file allows you to work more collaboratively with your accountant, with a dividing date that clearly delineates which periods are for your accountant to work in, and which are for you. QuickBooks also allows you to perform a bank reconciliation – even if your Accountant is working on your file. Customise and re-size displays and the appearance of your desktopQuickBooks works even harder for you as you can customise and re-size displays, reports and workflows. The company desktop can also be customised by each user. You can customise colour and content, and arrange toolbars and icons to suit the way you work. Batch printing and emailing of formsBatch printing or emailing your business forms can increase your business efficiency – you can set a Preferred Send Method (email or print) for all forms you send to specific customers, suppliers and employees. Customisable Company SnapshotQuickly view your business performance using the company snapshot tool.
