Accounting Tips To Learn Quickbooks One On One With An Austin TX CPA Firm Today

By Amie Murrieta


Maintaining books and keeping proper records for every financial transaction is something people have to do after starting a business. Any CPA firm which offers Austin Texas tax preparation assistance to clients will need to see all the records while filing returns. Of course, maintaining books manually and tracking all spending and revenue is very hard. The rest of it is almost impossible to manage by hand.

That is why many clients decide to start by learning how this is done using Quickbooks. It is available in both desktop and online (cloud) versions. It's a good idea to learn how to use whichever version of the software the business has purchased.

A business owner or student signing up for a 1-on-1 course will first learn to set it up and create the company file. The next step is to learn the simple stuff like buying, selling, bank reconciliation, sales taxes, inventory, etc. These are common tasks that will be updated with each purchase or sale.

One important part of the course will be devoted to helping students understand how accounting works. For example, students will learn about the difference between cash and accrual accounting. The course will teach people about general journal entries and make sense of financial statements.

The next step will be advanced aspects including payroll and employee setup, processing checks, etc. Students will learn about inventory and taxation matters such as tax deposits and preparing forms. One important part at this point is about learning to customize reports by editing and deleting fields or adding them.

An Austin, Texas business is obviously going to need the tax preparation services of a CPA firm. However, it's a lot easier for the business management as well as the accountant if all the records and data are there in a format that can be directly used in preparing taxes. Besides, Quickbooks eliminates human errors and frees up the management's time. The owner or manager can then focus on important aspects of the business like making sure that customers are satisfied.
