I work for a Corpration that builds homes and are a Non Profit company. They also do small jobs for home owners which they are tax for and not put under the Non Profit.
I use Quicken to enter all my deposits and my checks that I write out. We want to put all these small jobs that we do in a special class instead of listing each one seperate in Quickens.
I then would keep a paper file on each one ( latest one on top) per year so we could go back and look at what job we have done.
What we need help with is to come up with a name to call this class (in Quicken) that we could use to list all the job expenses and income that we take in for those jobs. Do you also think we should have 2 class for this, one for the expense on materials we pay out and then the money we deposit when we are paid for this job.
I have only worked for this company for 4 weeks, and have had only 1 year of accounting school which was way back in 1974. I do enjoy it and want to do a great job for them.
Hope that you can help, I'm also new to Quicken but have been learning as I go.
Thanks so much........
