Finishing your taxes can be a process especially when running your own business. With the personal tax deadline today, it's a great time to quickly review what can make everything easier for next year. Two solutions made this year a lot easier for us.
Payroll on the Mac
While QuickBooks for Mac has fewer features than the Windows version, you can indeed run payroll. Paycycle is a web-based payroll solution integrated into QuickBooks. For less than $50 a month, you can quickly pay your contractors and employees. Their phone support has answered every question we've had. At the end of the year for a small fee, all tax documents were printed and files electronically. The service even provides amounts and instructions for forms that Colorado does not accept electronically.
Receipts without all the paper
You need to track everything, but today you get receipts, invoices and statements on paper and through email. NeatReceipts powered by NeatWorks for Mac has cleared our office of paper and consolidated all paper and email receipts into an IRS approved, searchable database. It scans receipts with powerful character recognition that allows you to drag any portion of the receipts to customizable fields and learns as it goes. Emailed receipts and invoices are easily sent to the database right within Apple Mail. It can also process business cards, documents and much more.
