What Does a QuickBooks ProAdvisor Actually Do?

You may have heard of a QuickBooks ProAdvisor,  but what does that mean?
QuickBooks, like many powerful pieces of software, is complex and can be configured many different ways depending on the circumstances of the user. Intuit, the company that publishes QuickBooks, offers training and certification so that you know that the person you are hiring knows what they are doing.

I wrote more about this on a Business Consultant website. This is just a taste of what I wrote there.

A QuickBooks ProAdvisor helps a business owner fully benefit from QuickBooks and make the best use of its features.

They make this happen in several ways. The first thing to do is decide what version of the software is best for your business and your circumstances. Next they'll set up QuickBooks to be sure it's done properly. If it's already set up they'll review and correct that setup for you. Whatever unique situations your business faces will be accounted for by the QuickBooks ProAdvisor when your installation is customized. After that, they will set up User Roles that give employees just enough access to perform their duties while keeping your sensitive details protected. To go along with that, your ProAdvisor will train your employees so that they know what their role is able to do, and how to do it efficiently.

Finishing up, they will prepare reports that show you the financial progress of your business and teach you what you need to know to make the most out of QuickBooks to the benefit of your business.
