This video lecture is the clearest and most common-sense explanation for understanding what Accounting and Bookkeeping actually are. It gives just enough Accounting knowledge to be able to start learning QuickBooks.
There is nothing for you to do in this lecture except watch, learn and enjoy.
You will learn how QuickBooks files are a little different than normal computer files. You will create a file and be able to find where it is in your computer.
The Chart of Accounts is the main list in QuickBooks. You will be able to add, edit and delete accounts on this list. If you cannot delete an account, I show you how to make it "inactive"
We must keep records of whom we pay for services and products that we need to use in our business. The Vendor List in the Vendor Center helps us do that. You will be able to add, edit and delete vendor information. You will learn how to make a vendor "inactive" if you cannot delete it.
Before you record transactions, you should set up the QuickBooks file to be able to see the results of the transactions you entered. You will be introduced to the Trial Balance, one of the most important reports in QuickBooks,
This will show you, step by step. how to record your first QuickBooks Transaction. It is a simple "follow along" video and you will immediately see how the transactions cause the results you would expect to see in the reports

This video lecture will show you how to edit, any transaction that you recorded. It clearly explains how your report results change and how and why to make the nessisary changes
This video lecture will show you how to void and delete transactions. It explains the difference between them. You will see them on the "VOIDED AND DELETED TRANSACTION DETAIL" report.
Try to Practice what you have learned. Do the transactions and compare your results. If they are different, you must use the techniques learned in this course to make them perfect.
This QuickBooks learning video course is designed to be an OVERVIEW of both the QuickBooks Software and an overview of basic bookkeeping and accounting skills. It is also designed to be the clearest possible explanation of what QuickBooks is and how it is used. This course really is designed for people who consider themselves "slow learners" and have no background in Bookkeeping or computers. It has been helpful for students who are still learning English.
This course will show you how to use QuickBooks for a small CASH company. That's a small business that always pays immediately for what they need and always gets paid immediately from their customers. This is common for "convenience store, 99 cent stores or any store that uses a cash register and never needs to keep records of the inventory that they sell. They DO NOT HAVE: sales tax, employees, receivables, payables or inventory to keep track of in QuickBooks.
This QuickBooks instructional training is similar to the idea of QuickBooks For Dummy’s but more developmental for people who are beginners and want to learn clearly and slowly.
It will give you an overview of the QuickBooks ideas as well as an overview of introduction to accounting and bookkeeping.
You will set up a new QuickBooks file, set the Preferences, Customize the Icon Bar, Customize QuickBooks Reports, Use and Manage the QuickBooks Register Window,
There are 'follow along files” for each lecture so you can follow step by step. This makes learning QuickBooks Easy and fun.
The course is made with QuickBooks desktop for windows. However, the ideas apply to QuickBooks online as well as QuickBooks for Macintosh and Enterprise solutions.
I'm right here for you if you have any questions or need support. I hope you learn well and enjoy the course!
