QuickBooks for Mac is very similar to QuickBooks for PC in terms of how it works. The Mac version of QuickBooks allows you to keep a record on your sales and expenses, track measures and working hours to follow your clients, create bills, send applications, keep inventory record, track taxation, and much more.
It also allows you to keep records of your bank’s transactions and know the details of your QB account. The Mac version of QB allows you to work in Multi-user mode and you can work with company files with up to three users simultaneously. It also allows you to sync your contacts with QuickBooks Mac Help.
Corrupted files
The first step whenever your data file is not acting as expected, or even just as a normal maintenance step, is to run a verification. After using the verification tool, Intuit has a built-in feature in the desktop software that allows you to determine what kind of data corruption you have. A QuickBooks desktop file database corruption issue affecting encrypted data normally can’t be fixed. Using the rebuild tool in the file only compounds the issue creating a cancer of sorts.
Data damage is classified into three types:
⦁ List damage, where your lists such as the Chart of Accounts, Vendors List, and Customers List are damaged.
⦁ Transaction damage, where your transactions such as bills, invoices, payments, and checks are damaged.
⦁ Link damage, where the links connecting transactions, such as the link between an invoice and a payment is damaged, which may cause an unexpected result on the accounts receivable and the like.
