Accumulated depreciation for all fixed assets as of 12/31/07 was ….

    go to ‘company’ on the top tabs then go down to ‘make general journal entry’ then debit depreciation expense for the building and credit accum depretiation. for notes payable debit the np and credit the asset…to reduce the liability…good luck!!! are u an accounting student or just taking qb classes on ur own?

    Thanks a ton! I just followed ur instructions!…

    I’m a business student who is required to take qb… I don’t know how I’m going to survive it… each homework takes me ages to complete! I don’t know why I’m finding it so difficult! If you have a little more time (but only if you’re really bored), I still have two more “paragraphs” that I don’t know what to do … but seriously I know it’s late and I’m sure you are not so interested…so if you don’t want to, please tell me… you’ve been such a help so far that even if you stop helping me here, I still owe you a huge thanks

    well i learnt it on the job…after screwing up a bunch of clients lol jk, but then i took it in brooklyn college and it was a breeze…but for the people taking it for the first time it can be difficult. just remember that everytime you make an entry into the check register two accounts are always being effected, cash and something else. also if u need help or have questions you can ask the live community on intiut website.

    i tried using that live community but im still having issues. I am so embarrassed because I shouldn’t be havving such issues. By the way random comment… I love your “Nothing in the world cures worry,stress…. like emuna”.. sounds like something rabbi wallerstein would say:)

    lol actually its rabbi brodys quote, but i heard the two of them are tight.

    dont be embarrassed about the live community, nobody knows who u are, i ask questions all the time. sometimes i even answer some too…but usually on proseries, which is a tax program accountants use since thats where i usually have questions :))

    no problem really…im glad i could help if i can, i know how it is to be stuck on hw i just graduated but i used to email all my classmates for help. i learnt towards the end of my college career to always make friends with other students because theres always that smart kid who has all the answers and shares it with half the class :))

    Contact the Jewish community center in you neighborhood. Try you local public library.

    I have seen an ad a while ago that in Monsey they ran a free training program, dont remember the details. I think it was from tomchei shabbos.

    I learned quickbooks on the job. I did have more advanced computer training, but not in QB.

    Does anybody else have a problem with QB forcing you to update every two years or so if you want to continue using their online features (e.g. backing up data – which costs extra – email…)?

    If I don’t want to upgrade, what are my best ways to get these or similar features in conjunction with QB elsewhere? I really feel safe with their backups, because if anything goes wrong they don’t just give you the data back, they help you restore it and iron out the glitches. For emailing invoices and reports I think there’s a way to use your own software such as Outlook, but I’m not sure if it works totally without QB service.

    I really would like to stay with QB, not that it’s perfect, but they are making it very costly to continue. I think this is another form of software piracy, basically stealing back what I already paid for… Their upgrades aren’t that great, so they force it on you.

    Mammele- I feel the same way about it… there should be some way to force them to continue providing what you paid for. Our office just did the update
