(that program you can also DL into quick books). as far as personal i guess you could open a personal account as well as a separate account. actually the more i think there is a calendar that i never looked into maybe you can something with that.

I can customize my maintenance reports. I can set it up to show me what I spend on pm's, tires, etc., Parts and repairs are all included in maintenance. With my software, I can key in the repairs and then check a box to include it in my maintenance report. I can also show it as for a particular trailer or specific truck. I can print out a maintenance report by the piece of equipment and at any time. I used to do all that with a spreadsheet. It is much easier and neater the way I do it now.
I went to the Quickbooks website. I had hoped to find more information on the program, such as how various reports could be compiled, etc., It would be helpful to know how things can be separated into the program. I am not familiar with the "neat" program. I like keeping my business banking separate from my personal. It is also much better if you ever get audited. I keep everything separate in my business. But, I also operate under a corporate structure, so it is more critical in my situation.
