 In this presentation, we will set up a QuickBooks Online free trial that we will then use to work through our practice problem for a not-for-profit organization. Let's get into it with Intuitz, QuickBooks Online. Here we are on the Intuit website, Intuit being the owner of QuickBooks as well as other types of software. It's spelled I-N-T-U-I-T dot com, Intuit dot com, I-N-T-U-I-T dot com. Once here, you'll see some of the common softwares that they own, which is TurboTax, QuickBooks and so on. We're looking here, of course, for QuickBooks. Once you go into QuickBooks, there's going to be different options for QuickBooks, the major two being a desktop version and an online version. We're going for the online version here, which is usually the one that they market more for, so that's probably the one that you'll see. However, I'm going to go all the way down to the bottom. I like to go all the way down to the bottom of their page down here where they have the products. So here's the products and here's the little coupon thing that I'm turning off. And we're going to go into the products, under the products, we're looking for the online. So then within online, so you can imagine like a tree here of your products. You got Intuit, we're going into the QuickBooks products. Then you've got the major two categories being desktop versus online. We're going into the online, which is probably the more marketed software of the two. And then we're going to go down to the items down below and within online, you have the simple start, you have the plus, you have the advanced. Now the simple start usually is not something that most companies I think are going to be able to move forward with. Most people like they say here, most popular would be the plus here. And then if you needed the advanced options, then of course you'd go to advanced. We're going to be looking at the plus option. Also notice a little tricky to think about this free trial thing and down here because they really, they're trying to give you an option. This is how I interpret their marketing between a lower monthly price for its time period versus basically the free month trial. So what we're going to do is we're going to be clicking this over here and we want to use the free trial month here. That's going to be our option and that'll allow us to go through a practice problem. So if you want to use the practice problem, you might want to use the free trial work through our practice problem. If you're thinking about using this for QuickBooks, this QuickBooks version for your company or your not-for-profit organization and then possibly set it up again and set up your company file for the actual company with basically this option, which might be the cheaper option to go or talk to your accountant about the cheapest option to set up. But the free trial, great tool to practice with and there's going to be tools that we'd really need practice with on the not-for-profit because we're using some functions that some people might not be as used to in order to work the not-for-profit. So if we take a quick look at what we have down below, we've got the multiple users. So notice here in the simple, you only have one. You've got five for the plus. That's actually a big component and that's a big differentiating factor between some of the major softwares and whatnot. So then we have 25 for the advanced. That's one of the things that you might need to go to advance for, if that's something you need more of. But five is usually pretty good for most Oregonians. And generally, you can add an accountant in addition to that. So going on, we've got the track income and expenses, maximize tax deductions, invoice and accept payments. We have the 1099 and then that's where the simple start ends here. Then we have the managed bills, the track time and the track project profitability. This is something we may need in our not-for-profit. So that's something that we're going to need the plus version for here. Track inventory is something that you would have on the plus option. And then these are going to be items for the advanced option. So we're going to be here in the plus option. We're going to be needing that for our practice file. Remember, you want to click this to the right if you want to follow along with the practice problem and start from basically a fresh file and put in the data with us in a practice fashion for it without using your own company file and mixing up the data. You want to just practice with the practice file and test it out here. So then we're going to enter our data for the information. That's going to be the email, the mobile number and password. Now once you sign up, you'll get this box typically, which you want to be down here, continue with the trial because that's the free version. But they're trying to get you to go for the other options, which could be good if you were having this for the long term here. So let's skip the trial and save today. So they want you to skip the trial and save today. We're going to go to the trial down here. But their option is buy now and save 50% for your first three months. So that would be the option here. Again, we want to go to the free trial. So we're going to continue to the free trial. Then it says, tell us about your business. It needs something a little different from QuickBooks. Let's get to know what you need so we can tailor things to fit you. You can change your information in the settings later. So basically we're going to set up our name and basic information to set up the file. We can then change it if we go to the settings and we want to change it in the future. So I'm going to say this is going to be not for profit company. So it's obviously a generic name. If you want to follow along, we're having a generic name for our not for profit. How would you describe the business and what it does? I'm just going to say not for profit business or I'm going to select the religion culture and not for profit. So if you select the dropdown right here, now that's going to be important because QuickBooks will basically help you out to set up the basic chart of accounts and whatnot. So we want to make sure that we're picking the not for profit selection there and that'll allow QuickBooks to give us some of those default settings for us. So I've been using QuickBooks desktop and want to bring in my data. No, we're going to start from scratch. We're going to enter this information from scratch. But if you do have a desktop version and want to bring in the data from it, that's one option for you. Then we're going to say next. What would you like to do in QuickBooks? This is just to get started. And so I'm just going to select all of these. I'm just going to pick them all off. I do not think they're going to change anything, but I like to pick them all off here and then go to the next. We can always change options and settings within our settings options within QuickBooks. What's your role at your business so we can pick our role here? We're going to have an accountant or employee or so on and so forth. I'm going to go ahead and say the accountant and then we'll scroll down. Great. Don't forget to add yourself in the accountant tab to access your client books. And then we're going to say all set. So we'll say all sets. Next we have our welcome page welcome not for profit company. This 32nd tour will help you get get down to business in QuickBooks. So we can go. So let's go and it'll take you through the quick tour where you have the help options up top. So they're going to just point out that the major components here are here's a great place to start. Get to the jobs you need to do right away. So I'm going to say there we go. Now we're in the start. We're in the QuickBooks online set up. So that's how easy it is to set up here. No credit card information that we put in place. We do have up top subscribe now and say 50 percent. So this is this ribbon will be up there until unless we were going to go through the purchasing option. But we can now practice and use this practice file for our practice company problems. Setting up the QuickBooks file from scratch for a not for profit organization which is a great great tool. So that's going to be it for now. Let's get out of here.
