Here are a few of the enhancements designed to make your work in QuickBooks easier, faster, and more accurate:

1.        There’s a new button up on the toolbar called “Company Snapshot”.  On one screen, you can see an income and expense graph, customer, vendor, and account balances, plus your reminders.  Pick either this or the “Home” page as your default view each time you open the program.

2.       The online banking feature has been simplified to make it easier and quicker to match or enter downloaded transactions.  Automated routines and naming logic help make sure that transactions are properly categorized.

3.       Multi-user enhancements include the ability of one user to run a report while another creates an invoice.  They have also enabled back-up in multi-user mode so users  won’t have to switch to single-user mode to back-up files.
