Like this! welcome to the QuickBooks Online Dashboard up here we have your company name and logo today we're looking at Craig's Design and Landscaping Services which is the sample company to the left of me we have the Navbar with the New Button right at the top this is where we do most of our day-to-day tasks, run reports stuff like that which we'll get into in a moment if you don't like the Navbar then you can hide it by clicking on these three lines up here that will give you some extra space if you need it and in the top right corner we have my experts, help, search, the notification bell, settings and  a link to your Intuit account behind me we've got the business overview you can see summaries of your invoices, expenses, profit and loss, sales and your bank balances to the right this data can be a little sensitive so you can use the privacy button to hide it from any prying eyes  alrighty then how does QuickBooks Online work? let's start with these buttons up here if you want to invite your accountant then you can   click on the my experts button if you don't have one then you can search for one here as well or if you're doing it yourself then good for you  you can ignore this entirely the help button brings up the QuickBooks assistant bot which can help with some of your basic questions   you can also use this to reach a human or have a look through the frequently asked questions when you click on the search button you'll see  a list of all your most recent transactions you can also find your older ones here as well and make changes to them if you need to   settings is very important if you're firing up QuickBooks for the first time then this is where you go to set things up there's three main columns your company, lists and tools under your company you can find your account and settings in here you can do things like add a logo and change your company name just be aware that these changes do show up  on your invoices you can also add your employer identification number or your social security number for taxes and below that you can pick a tax form based on your company type and choose an industry then we have your business contact information your company's email, your customer facing email, your phone number and your address to the left you can check your usage limits, customize your sales and expenses and fiddle with your advanced settings perhaps you want to turn on account numbers or multi-currency anyway let's 'X' out of this and pop back into settings click on manage users if you want to add people to your QuickBooks account the different user types give different levels of access next up is your chart of accounts which brings up a complete list of all your businesses accounts please be careful with this one because these accounts should be tailored to your business if you're getting started and you're new to bookkeeping then i'd definitely recommend getting some help from an accountant next up we have QuickBooks Labs you can go here if you want to turn on plugins like Quickbooks Themes this is where you can access Dark Mode if that's your thing under the list column you can manage all of the products and services that you sell you can also check your recurring transactions to see what's been scheduled to be paid each month up here in the tools menu you can order business checks, import data into Quickbooks from Excel or Google Sheets or you can bring in your QuickBooks Desktop data if you're making the switch there's an option to reconcile your accounts, add a budget and see the audit log which tracks user activity then there's smartlook and the resolution center in smartlook you can share a code with your accountant to let them see your screen now that that's out the way let's take a  look at the Navbar right here at the top we have the New Button we click this when we want to create things for customers, vendors, employees and other stuff too for example if you sell something to a customer   then you might need to create an invoice so that they can pay you add a new customer or pick one of your regulars from the drop down menu select what you sold them, pick a quantity and a rate add in the sales tax or a discount if you need to and that's all there is to it, save and send   QuickBooks will generate the invoice for you and email it directly to your customer Nice, now let's head back to the Dashboard you sell things to customers and you buy things from vendors there's two ways to record purchases you can use expenses or bills if you've already paid for a good or service then you'll want to click expenses maybe filled up your car at a gas station enter the amount, what you paid with, attach the receipt to keep things organized and save and close alternatively if you want to save time you can snap your receipt on your phone instead of using the QuickBooks App that will scan it straight into the system bills are for situations where you buy something and haven't made the payment yet the form looks very similar to the expenses one but this time you need to enter the terms and a due date that's the deadline that you need to make the payment by besides that it's the same deal as before just fill out the details, attach a copy of the bill and any other support and then hit save or save and schedule the payment under the employees column you can manage  your payroll if you've added that on   and fill out timesheets in the other column you can post journal entries these are a bit technical so i wouldn't mess with them unless you're comfortable with how accounting works this is the kind of thing that i teach on this channel  so if you'd like to learn about that then why not click subscribe?
