Frank,We run QB Pro 2005 and T-quoter. The thing that keeps me from upgrading and using only QB is it doesn't allow a line item of small qty, med qty, large qty, etc and then give a total on the same line. Or, does it?

We use QuickBooks Premier Accountant's edition. It includes all the variouspremier QuickBooks editions and I believe is the same price. While it appears Intuit just went up on the price you can become a ProAdvisor for $449 a year. This includes the Accountant's version any updates that come out during the year, a years subscription to their payroll service, a special support hotline for members only, and QuickBooks Enterprise Accounting Solution (QuickBooks on Steroids for bigger companies)thatincludes the ODBC drivers you will need to access the database directly fromany ODBC compliant programs like Excel and Access. In addition to those basic services you can also add your choice of the following"*Additional licenses of QuickBooks Premier Accountant Edition($199 each)* Point-of-Sale Multi-Store ($99 each) * QuickBooks Pro for Mac 2007 ($99 each) * QuickBooks Merchant Services (1 year subscription of credit card service) for $69/year*Save 10% - 30% on QuickBooks products and services that you purchase onbehalf of your clients. If you are looking to get Quickbooks and need multiple licenses or some of the other programs like Point of Sale, Credit Cards or Payroll it is normally cheaper to pay the annual subscription to be a pro-advisor. The link for more information is http://proadvisor.intuit.com/content/program/overview.jhtml As far as the program goes, I am a CPA and I have helped others get theprogram set up. I find it is pretty easy to learn and to use. It is prettypowerful considering the market that it was written for. I don't reallyfind much added functionality with the retail version. If you are going tospend the money get the accountants version. It will have all the retail reports and add ons plus a lot more. Last time I checked it was the same cost as the other premier editions. I don't know if you use the EZ Stitch program but I know they have a new improved interface to integrate the systems. Another program you can look at is the new version of Microsoft SmallBusiness Accounting. I have a number of friends that have switched to thatand seemed to like it. It has some neat features especially if you ever sell things on eBay. The thing I have found is businesses has uniquebusiness requirements and needs. I would suggest getting a demo copy of theprograms and taking them for a test drive. While we prefer QuickBooks because it is simple, I can integrate it with the POS program if I chooseand the accountant's version has some neat features like fixed asset managerother people will use the program as a glorified checkbook and accounts receivable management program. Hopefully that helps.
