QuickBooks 2008 Updates Availaible Now







Welcome to another QuickBooks Gal Minute.

Hi, I'm Jayne Miller, The QuickBooks Gal.

If you are using QuickBooks 2008, you will want to make sure that your software is up to date by downloading the newest updates from Intuit.

If the release number contains R6, then you already have the latest release. To check your release number, simply press the Control button and the number 1 on the top row of your keyboard simultaneously to open a window that will give you the current release number of your software.
I've come upon an odd issue with the latest update that I want to give you a "heads-up" about. On some of my QuickBooks company files, I've noticed that after I download & install the updates, the personalized icons on my customized toolbar disappear and the toolbar returns to its original status. Several clients have called with the same issue.

So far, this is only happening in QuickBooks 2008. And it is an easy fix, so make sure your QuickBooks is current with updates, despite this small issue, and be prepared to adjust your toolbar if needed!

QuickBooks Tutorials not Compatible with Flash







Welcome to another QuickBooks Gal Minute.
I'm Jayne Miller, The QuickBooks Gal.

Have you downloaded a trial version of QuickBooks only to find out that you can't view the Tutorials?

It turns out that the problem here is due to QuickBooks not being compatible with the newest version of Flash. Here is what you’ll need to do in order to make the flash tutorials work:

1. Use Control Panel-Add or Remove Programs to remove the current version of Adobe FP from your system

2. Go to http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.htmland select the Flash Player 8 Package to your desktop

3. Unzip this file to your desktop to unlock the FP_8 Archive folder

4. Open this folder, then open the Players folder, and double click the SAFlashPlayer Icon to install Flash Player 8

5. Now re-open QB and your tutorials should work.

Employee Salary/Wage Rate Report







Welcome to another QuickBooks Gal Minute.
I'm Jayne Miller, The QuickBooks Gal.

Do you need to produce a report by Employee that lists only Employee Name and Wage Rate? In QuickBooks that's easy! Here's how to modify a standard report to include the data you want to report.

  1. In the top tool bar, select Reports
  2. Select Employees & Payroll
  3. Select Employee Contact List from the drop-down list
  4. Once inside the report, select Modify Report in the report tool bar
  5. In the "column" section, remove the check marks from the information choices you don't need.
  6. In the "column" section, place a check mark next to "Employee"
  7. In the "column" section, place a check mark next to "Earnings/1 Rate"
This will customize the report to include only employee names & salary/wage amounts.

As you explore the Modify window, you will find that there are many useful information options you can use to create really great custom reports...by the way, you can use this basic process to Modify any report that has the "Modify Report" button inside the report window.

Try it....it's a great tool!


If you have questions about QuickBooks, Peachtree, Microsoft, Quicken, Money,
Windows or XP, try our new
QB On Call support service...$49 per incident support.

QuickBooks Gal - New On Call Support


QB On Call

Stuck on what should be a simple problem?

Tired of calling tech-support for hours of the "run around?"

Looking for an affordable way to simply "fix it?"


Then call us!

Our knowledgeable experts can assist you with many common QuickBooks "quick questions."

We speak YOUR language and can guide you through most solutions with simple, easy to understand assistance.

We are QuickBooks Users and Consultants....We use QuickBooks Everyday!

If you are tired of call centers and can't find expert help in your area, give us a call...we now offer $49 single incident, 30 minutes or less, support.

We've been doing this for many years locally and now we're going world-wide. Call us between 10 am -9 pm PST with your credit card & your issue.

We'll take an incident report, run your credit card for a flat fee of $49.00 and either call you back or, if you would like to wait while we process your credit card payment, we'll stay on the line and start your "support clock" once payment has been made.

We limit our calls to One Incident - One Topic; limited to 30 minutes. You can't call asking how to create an invoice, then move on to payroll issues. But you can call if you need operational support from real bookkeepers, users & hands-on consultants.

This is QuickBooks User support...architectural or software issues that require engineering support are not included. If your questions are not within our field of expertise, we'll tell you and we won't ask for your credit card.

If you are having installation issues, don't forget that you may have free installation support from Intuit, so use that first!

So, if you are looking for real support from real QuickBooks users Call the Pros at QB On Call!
