As my company's owner and operator, I am the QB Online user. I use QuickBooks for all account tasks including invoicing, writing checks, disbursements, tax preparation, and track banking transactions. I also use it to track business income progress and projections, evaluate how the company is performing, analyze and anticipate business cycles, and any other task that has to do with finances.
