A:Answer There is no manual, but there is extensive help and tutorials, so it isn't exactly fair to say there is no "manual". I have used this software for 25 years and never taken a course or called customer support. In all accounting, however, one does need to consider the use of an accountant due to the complex nature of the tax code especially as it relates to business. But, Quickbooks is a powerful program and capable of doing everything (filing forms and taxes) if you keep accurate data.
When you start the software, it will guide you through setting up your company/business. Be ready to spend some time on it, but as with everything of this nature, the learning curve is expected. It is a good program.
