Update your QuickBooks for better support

Are you using an old edition of QuickBooks? If you are, you should consider upgrading. As of May 2011 QuickBooks will stop supporting versions of their software from 2008 and earlier.

What does this mean for your business?
If you’re using an outdated edition, you will lose certain functionalities. For example, you’ll no longer have access to the payroll subscription features, nor will you have the ability to send an accountant’s copy via the QuickBooks Transfer Service. In addition, QuickBooks will no longer provide technical support if you run into any problems.

Now is a good time to upgrade to the new 2011 QuickBooks.
The newest edition allows for faster processing of your data, plus continued QuickBooks support. Here’s a highlight of some of the other new features included:

• Batch invoicing
• Customer snapshots
• Collections Center that allows for better management of receivables
• Improved search features
• Webmail integration that allows users to send invoices and estimates from Yahoo, Gmail, and Hotmail accounts
• The ability to run reports and backup data while other users continue to work in the file
• ‘Paid’ Stamps that appear directly on invoices.
