设置您的帐户图表
要开始使用爱国者的会计软件,您需要设置帐户图。我们添加了一些常用的帐户,以帮助您创建帐户图表。请注意,可用的帐户将取决于您选择现金,修改现金还是应计帐户基础。有关更多详细信息,请参阅Which Accounting Basis Should I Choose?You have the option to use account numbers in addition to naming each account. If you use account numbers, these will appear throughout the software when choosing or displaying the account. In the setup wizard, choose “Yes” to the question “Do you want to use Account Numbers?” Once you are past the setup wizard, you can go to设置>会计设置>一般设置>帐户图表>和切换显示高级选项使用帐号。
There are five different types of accounts:
1) Asset Accountsare your main accounts that track the money deposited and withdrawn from your bank or cash accounts. Checking, Savings, and Petty Cash accounts have already been added for you. You can change the account names to something more meaningful by clicking inside each box. You can add as many asset accounts as you need, and remove any that you do not use.
2)责任帐户are used to keep track of the debts and obligations that your business owes to other businesses or individuals. These should be reported on your balance sheet if you are using modified cash basis or accrual basis. A Sales Tax Collected account has already been added, and you can add more as needed. If you use Patriot to run payroll, you will need to use Modified Cash basis and create a liability account with the Subtype of “Current Liabilities” to track your payroll taxes that you will be paying to tax agencies (if you are a Basic Payroll customer), and deductions/contributions that you will be paying to benefit providers.
3)股权帐户创建是为了跟踪所有者对业务的投资,所有者提款以及任何净收入或损失。股权也可以通过减去资产减去负债来计算。我们添加了一个默认帐户,“所有者权益”,供您在权益交易中使用,但是您可以根据需要重命名或创建其他帐户。
4) Income accountskeep track of incoming money, such as product sales. Commonly-used income accounts have already been added. You can rename an income account, add a new one, or remove these accounts as needed.
5) Expense accountskeep track of the types of outgoing money, such as payroll expenses. A list of commonly used expense accounts has already been added. You can rename an expense account, add a new one, or remove any that you do not use.
Subaccounts
If you are an Accounting Premium customer, you will be able to add subaccounts under your main chart of accounts for a more detailed view of your chart of accounts. Although you can add up to 8 levels of sub-accounts under one main account, you’ll want to be aware of some limitations:
- Some system accounts are restricted and cannot have subaccounts added, nor can they be made into subaccounts:
- 应收账款
- 应付账款
- 收取营业税
- Credit Memo Liability
- Cost of Goods Sold subtypes cannot nest with Expense subtypes or vice versa.
完成设置帐户图表后,单击页面底部的“继续”。接下来,您将设置您的交易设置.
