Are you looking for another way to speed up the process of getting all those daily sales summary reports entered into your Quickbooks file? You know there has to be a better way to streamline every little process necessary to crunch the numbers, don’t you?

You can speed up data entry on your daily sales summary in Quickbooks by numbering each item in your item list that is entered on your daily sales summary. By doing so you won’t have to memorize all of the item list abbreviations or refer to your item list in the process of entering data. Click on the thumbnail to see an example of the numbered item list.

I do, however, recommend leaving the subtotal, total, and over/short items in alphabet format as they represent totals which are sometimes located in different areas of a sales summary. Be certain each begins with a different letter that’s easy for you to associate and remember.

Now you should be able to whip through those daily sales summaries in a snap and move on to the next task. Do anything you can that will help empty out the inbox on the corner of your desk and lower your stress level.

There really is a simple solution to the time consuming issue of opening and closing programs during the course of the day as you conduct and record business. Purchase a computer designed for gamers with powerful processing speed.

I did so a few months ago and it’s been a godsend! I’m able to keep Outlook, Quickbooks, MS Excel, MS Word, and Firefox open for hours on end without sluggish performance. Saves a LOT of time when you don’t have to take time to open and close programs throughout the day. Just hit Alt+Tab to move back and forth between two programs quickly.

Along with the purchase of the Fujitsu Scansnap S300 Color Mobile Scanner, I’ll soon be purchasing another monitor so I also won’t have to waste paper and toner to print documents for data entry.

Do you have any other ideas to share that will streamline business processes and save valuable resources and time?

Looking for an economical way to go paperless and get your office up to green par without taking up tons of space? Fujitsu has the answer now with the Fujitsu Scansnap S300 Color Mobile Scanner.

I haven’t purchased one for my own office yet, but one of my clients has and he is quiet happy with his purchase. According to him, the Fujitsu Scanscap S300 Color Mobile Scanner whips the documents through in a flash. I can tell you that the pdf files I receive from my client are very good and legible. As far as I know or can tell from the pdf files, he hasn’t had any difficulty with documents creasing during the scanning process, either.

His office is rather small so he also appreciates having a powerful scanner such as this one with a small footprint as well as a mobile one he can quickly and easily pack up and carry with him if necessary. If you prefer a larger model you can check out the other Fujitsu scanners listed over on the far right sidebar.

I’ll soon be investing in the mobile model so I can clear out a lot of paper taking up valuable real estate in my office and not take up much more. Must move go green and paperless to make room for more electronics which I love to utilize and play with.
