QuickBooks Online (US): Practical Bookkeeping from First Invoice to Month-End Close

Learn QuickBooks Online the way you will use it at work – by keeping the books of a real US small business from first invoice to month-end close.

Built for accountants, bookkeepers, Chartered Accountants, commerce graduates and anyone aiming for US outsourcing work – in India, the UAE, the UK or anywhere else. You follow Craig's landscaping business through November and December, with Craig's diary, the exact entries to make, a QuickBooks screenshot for every scenario and the debit and credit behind it.

By the end you will be able to:

• Set up a chart of accounts, customers, vendors and products the way a US accountant expects
• Record sales from quote to cash, including credit memos, refunds, bounced checks and progress invoices
• Record purchases from purchase order to payment, vendor credits, prepaid expenses and billable costs
• Use bank feeds and bank rules, and reconcile a bank account and a business credit card
• Charge automated US sales tax, track inventory with FIFO, and record payroll, a vehicle loan and depreciation
• Invoice in a foreign currency, track profit by class and project, and close the month
• Produce a Profit and Loss, Balance Sheet and Trial Balance that agree to the cent
• Work as a ProAdvisor in QuickBooks Online Accountant and practise for the Level 1 certification with a timed mock exam
• Use QuickBooks Online Advanced: custom fields and roles, workflows, batch transactions, Spreadsheet Sync, KPIs, revenue recognition and fixed assets, and practise for Level 2
• Use AI in QuickBooks (Intuit Intelligence) and check every answer before you rely on it

Covers core and advanced topics across 28 modules, with a capstone that brings the whole case together.
