book keeping.

I have used google docs but still it did not have as much info.

If you are getting scrap for free then your recording is simple. With me buying and selling I have to keep paper work on each person and what they sold me like any other scrap yard but on top of that I also have to keep track of how many pounds I have on hand..where my money is going (food, labor, scrap, shop, tools, reapirs and so on) so trying to keep track of it at the start of last year was simple as I only had a few things I had to put into my book but now i can have as many as 50+ line items i have to record....that takes a good bit of time!



With quickbooks I can record them fast an easy but have great reports as well to help SHOW me where the money is going.

Another thing you can find...are people who will charge you from $200 to $400 a month (yes a MONTH) to keep up with your quick books...you send them all you sales slips, buy slips and anything else and they will record it all and at the end of the year do your taxs...now I am not going to do that as I can handle right now...but I think I maybe using something like that sooner or later.

I am using the same..well version 9.0 so now sure what version yours is.

Never thought of using it for scrapping, but it is a good idea. What did you classify your company in the program as?
