Title: preferred method to keeping accounts & scheduling work?
Post by: Ian Mason on January 31, 2010, 09:33:42 pm: Hi all,

I notice many of you seem to use software such as George to keep records & schedule jobs, but do any of you prefer using your own methods with computer office software such as microsoft office, or simply using pen & paper?

Many thanks.

hi ian ...i just use excel and just keep a book for ins and outs...i have george but couldnt get on with it...iam going to try it again as they have a few updates that could be useful

Hi Snake hips,

I did some Business Link courses & have created my own system using Office Word, & it should take care of both sales figures for accounts, & scheduling work at the same time.

I have been reading about window cleaning software, & get the impression that it can have it`s limitations, so I think I shall settle with my method first.

Many thanks.

I use the spreadsheet and database in MSWorks. It can take a bit of setting up but just takes a few minutes each working day to maintain.
