Have you seen the commercial on television that goes like this - "if you can write a check, you can use QuickBooks?" Well, it's true, but there's more you need to know.
So you've decided to do payroll yourself rather than outsource it. Welcome to the brave new world of complex rules and regulations at several governmental levels! Were you aware of the penalties and interest that can be assessed if you make your payroll tax deposits late - even by one day? How about the fact that you could be asked to file over forty different payroll tax returns over the course of a year? Ever hear of the "100% penalty?"
Being deluged with those annoying "pop-up" ads while surfing the Internet? You may actually be the victim of having "spyware" installed on your computer. This "spyware" is causing you to receive many of these pop-up ads.

Hi Scott, I run a sales & service business (I sell & service Fire Fighting Equipment) and I have clients that have multiple outlets.
These clients require me to call on their outlets but want only one Invoice to their head office.
How do I set up my Customers so that I have a main customer name and address and then all their other outlets?
Q: Can QuickBooks be configured to show graphs based on units sold (not sales $) and can Sales by Item reports be configured to show the total units sold in addition to total sales $?
Q: My QuickBooks backup requires lots of floppy disks to complete. What can I do?
Q: I have a question about payroll items and tax-tracking categories in QuickBooks. I have just me and I'm an 1120-S, so I don't feel it is worth the $169 subscription price when I used to be able to download the tax tables for free. I waited until February 2003 to activate my free download, but now the payroll area keeps running me through the setup wizard telling me that my tax-tracking categories are all wrong. Even when I check "this payroll item is inactive" for things I don't use, it still gives me the error. Maybe this is just a quirky coincidence of me not paying the subscription fee?
