Tips of the Month - April, 2008

QuickBooks

Merging Accounts

Over time we realize that some of the accounts in QuickBooks represent the same category but with a slightly different name, i.e. Office Supplies & Office Supplies Expense. These accounts can be merged together. Caution must be used though as once accounts are merged it is irreversible.

To merge accounts:

Go to Lists
   Chart of Accounts
Highlight the account you want to merge into another (delete)
Click Activities
   Edit
Change the Account Number/Name to the Number/Name that
   You want to keep (QB” will ask, & “Do you want to merge?”
   Yes

The activity for both accounts now will be included in the one account. 

TAX

More IRS Scams

The IRS has issued another warning about e-mail scams.  The IRS never communicates with taxpayers via email. If you receive a suspicious email do not open any attachments, but go to: www.irs.gov/privacy/article/0,,id=179820,00.html for instructions. There is also a complete detailed list of all of the scams at:  www.irs.gov
