 Hi Folks

Just discovered a MAJOR change in 2008 Acct's Copy-you CANNOT reconcile
accounts in your copy while an Acct's copy is outstanding.

Kind of defeats the purpose of the feature.

Is this the case with US edition as well?

Thanks...

And, no multi-currency. How stupid is that? They force you to buy the
Premium edition for the feature that was included in the older ones.

Only a dumb bell would want it any other way. Sending the file to your
accountant before cash is reconciled (who in 2008 can now reconcile cash)
infers that the accountant is the one who will be reconciling cash not the
client.

Why so you can get your billings up with bank reconciliation time?

It does not matter whether cash is reconciled the client can't use the
feature at all.

Give me a break. In the majority of real world cases if the accountant does
not reconcile cash then it never gets done.

I will also let you in on a little secret. If an accountant can't bill extra
for reconciling cash and they receive a QB file that indicates the client
has never performed a bank rec, in many cases they close their eyes and move
on. This happens every day in hundreds of thousands of accounting offices
across the world.

Reconciling cash can be very time consuming and there are many instances
where it is more profitable for the accountant to overlook the fact that
cash is not reconciled. Many clients are billed a fixed fee and the less
time you spend on their work the higher their profit.

I wish I had a dime for every time an accountant only makes a journal entry
for depreciation at year end and slaps the numbers given to them by a client
they know to be clueless in acounting matters, onto their tax returns.
