Luckily, QuickBooks 2008: The Missing Manual picks up where QuickBook's help resources leave off.

With its Simple Start, Basic, Pro, Premier, and industry-specific Enterprise editions, QuickBooks can handle many of the financial tasks companies face, but the price you pay is an overabundance of features. With this book, you get advice on which features you need to use to get your work done efficiently, along with step-by-step instructions on how to use them. QuickBooks 2008: The Missing Manual helps you: Get more out of QuickBooks whether you're a beginner or an old pro. Learn how QuickBooks can help you boost sales, control spending, and save on taxes.
