QuickBooks, Macs and Your Accountant [Free Seminar]

“I can’t get a Mac; my accountant told me not to.”

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard this statement, I could buy every reader a cup of coffee! There is a general misunderstanding among accountants that QuickBooks and Macs don’t work together, but Small Dog Electronics can prove this statement is false as we still use QuickBooks for a portion of our accounting needs.

While I was away from Small Dog, I worked for a small, Mac-only business that did all of its accounting in QuickBooks and our accountant was 100% PC-based. There were some workarounds required, but that was mostly due to the vagaries of the PC and not the software itself.

The first thing that you need to look at are the features that the QuickBooks for Mac has compared to the QuickBooks Pro Windows version has by clicking here. You’ll notice that they are just about equal as far as features go, though HOW the features interact are different between the versions.


QuickBooks for Mac Seminar
Our Small Dog Electronics Business guru, Rob Amon, is teaming up with local CPA Geoff Robertson to host a ‘QuickBooks for Mac’ seminar specifically for small business Mac users.

What it covers:
This free seminar will cover a basic overview of QuickBooks interface, working with your PC accountant and how to decide which version of QuickBooks is required for your type of business.

When:
The seminar is Thursday, June 14th from 8:00AM until 9:30AM. Rob will be there to answer any of your Mac business questions. Rob is trying to work with Geoff to host additional seminars and for our non-local readers, maybe we can get a copy of the presentation on-line in the future.

Where:
33 Blair Park Road, Suite 201, Williston, VT 05495.

Cost:
FREE!
