Accounting with QuickBooks Online Accountant Guide

Overview

An accounting system is a set of processes that create, record, classify, summarize, analyze, interpret, and communicate information. Business owners use that information to stay informed, make business decisions, and increase their company's financial position, profit, and cash flow.

Bookkeeping is the day-to-day creating, recording, classifying, and summarizing of financial transactions; such as sales and receipts and purchases and payments, and is the foundation of an accounting system.

Accounting is analyzing, interpreting, and communicating business information; such as financial position, profit, and cash flow, and is the pinnacle of an accounting system.
