Custom Fields - QuickBooks Enterprise v. 10 (2010)
What makes an accounting/management program unique to the specific company? The ability to customize the way a program can gather data. Enterprise Version 10 is now able to make the claim that is can make the program unique. This is clearly a homerun for users of Enterprise. This greatly expands the capabilities of the software.

WMS - Warehouse Management System ES
Hello everyone! I want to let everyone know about a new engagement we have undertaken.
BTA Consulting has a new client that is moving to the WMS ES suite package to expand their business. This is a multilocation, serial/lot control, and bar coding function addition to their already existing QBES v9.0. It is a 3rd party program that bolts into and syncs with QBES on a automatic (or manual force) transfer of data. The setup of the system software is quite simple, and just takes some patience while the databases sync.

Getting Back to Basics
Being from Los Angeles (originally Iowa, but in LA for a long time now), I will always remember Pat Riley, former head coach of the LA Lakers. He was always the cool guy. In a bad year, he was saying routinely, “We have to get back to basics…like dribbling, passing, and shooting.”
Well, we are in bad times now and we all need to get back to basics. Take a look at your business and see what has been making your money. Then take a look at what has not been making you money.

Accounting Systems: to report history or to help forecast the future?
When I entered the accounting profession, financial statements were typed in word processors and spreadsheets were done on 13-column paper. Really not so long ago, but getting a financial statement was truly an “event”!
Now basic accounting systems, like QuickBooks Pro costs under $200 and financial statements (canned out the accounting software) are instantaneous.

Did you get your annual physical this year, oh, and, how about your business???
So you are a loving, caring individual who loves their body. Every year, you get a full phyiscal and you are thrilled to find out your ticker (heart) is fine and everything else attached to it.
So what do you do for your business? How is the “blood pressure” of your business today? Is there a chance for a premature heart attack in these times?
