Burt, could you please have in the AJUG calendar of events a topic that
Curt suggested. This topic is long overdue.

Thank you

Leonid Shifrin.

Subject: [ajug-members] IT consulting accounting software?

Greetings,
I'm a typical single IT consultant corporation, Type S, and just went 
through my first tax season.  My CPA is ok, but has done me no favors or

helps where I feel the slightest amount of foresight into the newbies 
needs could have been satisfied by a single paragraph of std helps.  I 
feel she could be replaced by a standard accounting package that also 
handles state tax submission forms.

The most specific knowledge she has that I couldn't replace with 
turbo-tax business is Qtrly event: what state tax forms need 
submitting.  I'm handling Fed montly tax payments easy enough via the 
IRS's Electronic Funds Transfer (ETF) website.   No CPA help needed once

you guesstimate an amount to pay monthly.

Any specific suggestions/experiences?

A friend who's running a full company is using Quick books online and 
loves it for std business accounting features but I haven't checked into

the features that may support tax paying help.

Just a thought that the subject of converting to corp-to-corp and 
running your 1 person business would be a useful AJUG mini-topic?

BTW I'm happy to share what I've learned so far re SEP, 
dividends/distributions etc.

Thanks,
Curt Smith
