    Fantastic stuff. I have many questions still. We break our daily sales further into individual products like beer; Liq; wine; food ,and retail. An example would be breaking sales into categories like pub beer or Beer store beer. I know it’s a bit overkill but I like to be able to see at each area to be able see our food,liq costs

    • @5MinuteBookkeeping
      @5MinuteBookkeeping  Před 2 lety

      Hi Cameron. If you want to track your costs by specific categories, you would need to categorize your expenses by those categories. You would need to the desired account categories to the chart of accounts.

      @@5MinuteBookkeeping thank you for the reply. Much appreciated. Yes I have done that. My biggest challenge has been my opening inventory. I have been the GM of a pub and Beer store for 21 years. The pub was sold and the new owners have leased the business back to me. Total time the pub was not open was the 5 days during the closing and the date of possession for us aug 4th. There was a $46,722 inventory balance. We paid half up front from some of our opening equity. The other half is due with a bit of interest on sept 30th. What is the best way to record this? Thank you 🙏🏻

    Do you have a video on how to manage the inventory on Quickbooks after making a journal entry for Shopify sales? Journal entries do not record the inventory that was sold in those sales - so what would be the step to record that? :) Thanks!

    @normanocampo4466 Před 2 lety

    HI, Veronica, thanks for the heads up, so it is BETTER to keep all the records in order monthly and save it so that when the yearly reports come, it is very EASY just to retrieve all the records and reconcile it for easy tracking?

    • @5MinuteBookkeeping
      @5MinuteBookkeeping  Před 2 lety +1

      I'm not sure I understand your question. If you want to attach receipts to transactions in QBO, you could use an app called Dext to do that. Aside from that, you would not want to spend time at the end of the year matching receipts to transactions - that would be very time consuming. I hope I understood your question, if not, please let me know.

    What are bank feeds

    • @5MinuteBookkeeping
      @5MinuteBookkeeping  Před 3 lety

      That's a great question Dennis. Those are the transactions from your business bank and credit card account that "feed" into your QuickBooks file. You have to connect QBO to your business bank and credit card accounts first.

    When you enter transactions manually from paper receipts, invoices, etc, are you saving those for any reason or are they not needed after recording?

    • @5MinuteBookkeeping
      @5MinuteBookkeeping  Před 4 lety +1

      We don't enter transactions manually for clients from paper receipts and invoices. We collaborate with our clients on their books and are not doing after-the-fact bookkeeping. However, we receive any documents from our clients electronically and they are stored in Box, our cloud document-management app.

      @loric1909 Před 4 lety

      @@5MinuteBookkeeping 3 min into the video there is a note about entering transactions manually under the Record step. I'm new to bookkeeping so maybe I'm missing something. So you do not enter the client's transactions? If you are doing this for your own bookkeeping and not a client, is it different?

    • @5MinuteBookkeeping
      @5MinuteBookkeeping  Před 4 lety +2

      @@loric1909 Oh, I see what you mean. Since I am talking to small business owners in this video, I was referring to them entering their transactions. They will likely enter their transactions from source documents.
      In my accounting firm, we do everything 100% virtual and it is also our goal to free up our clients as much as possible from dealing with the financial side of their business. Consequently, we request as few documents as possible from our clients and use bank feeds to record transactions. Of course, that can vary from client to client. But, the point I am trying to make is that we don't get a "shoe box" full of documents to do our clients' books.
