Bookkeeping Programs

[David Ilvedson]

I think the archives are still having problems.   I couldn't search for Brown action, action....

Avery,

IMHO...you need to separate the money from the customer/piano database.    Why?  Because you can't get both in one program that will do what Quickbooks/Quicken for Home/Business and a customer database/scheduling programs can do.   Quicken for Home/Business isn't expensive.    Time & Chaos is $45.
