QuickBooks 2004
Accountant’s Edition
The QuickBooks Premier Accountant Edition
2003 is designed for accounting professionals with multiple QuickBooks
clients. This specialized version offers Remote Access, which lets the
accountant work on client files from your home or office, plus much,
much more. This Edition is designed for accountants with accounting
functionality to help CPAs work with their clients' files. The
accountant-specific features include the ability to keep closed periods
closed, new condensed reports that allow you to view and edit all
journal entries on a single screen, and Remote Access lets you work on
client files from your home, office, or on the road via the Internet,
without the hassles of exchanging disks or files, or driving to client
offices.

Compatibility - Be aware that in
order to take full advantage of all of the features in Premier:
Accountant Edition, your clients need to use one of the QuickBooks 2003
products: QuickBooks Basic, Pro, or Premier 2003.
Caution - Also be aware that with
Remote Access, your client cannot be working on their file at the time
you access it.
Remote Access - To use Remote Access
you need to have Internet access, a user I.D. and password to your
client’s data. Thereafter, any time you want to access your client's
file, simply click the Remote Access button in QuickBooks. Enter your
I.D. and password, and click on "Start Session". QuickBooks generates a
Session ID Number. To set them up, you must direct your client to the
QuickBooks Remote Access Web site, have them enter the Session ID
number, and you're connected! Once connected, you can do anything you
could do if you had their files on your desktop-update information, run
reports, close out periods and password-protect them. You have all the
control with none of the inconvenience of driving to your clients'
offices or the risk of working in duplicate data files.
Security - Intuit claims that the
Remote Access sessions protect your clients’ data with the same security
technology used by banks and online trading firms for their online
transmissions. Data is encoded using state-of-the encryption and
transmitted over the secure socket layer (SSL) to prevent interception.
You initiate Remote Access sessions, but permission for each session
must be granted by your client using their private password, so they’re
always in control of access to their data.
