In addition to keeping more accurate business records, the QuickBooks reports help owners and managers make better business decisions.” said Chrystal Irons, business development specialist and workshop instructor with University of Missouri Extension.

In addition the class will cover basic bookkeeping functions including: Sales/Invoicing; Customer Receipts; Paying Bills; Generating Standard Reports; and Bank Reconciliation.

“We’ll also cover the reports, charts, and graphs QuickBooks® creates for you, and review how you can customize reports for your specific business and managers, and how to customize invoices and statements to include your logo and messages to customers,” said Irons.
