looking different
http://www.quickbooks.com/ and search for chart of accounts there on
the front page. Looks like quickbooks can print theirs out. I did a
search at peachtree.com, but it seemed to be much less helpful. It
seems that there is an "interview assistant" with some of these apps,
for help setting up a new company.
I realize that we don't want to mimic these other (legacy,
proprietary) accounting applications with all of their faults. But we
might want to look them over for ease of use from the "out-of-the-box"
point of view, going forward.
Rob> two questions:
Rob> 1. would it be smart to call up an accountant and ask?
Rob> 2. would it be worthwhile to open up a windows version of quickbooks
Rob> and see what they have going on there?
I think I will fire up quicken now and see what their charts look
like. Any objections?
