Service companies that are expanding need to look at solutions to improve operations and accounting functions. Many of these companies start out with QuickBooks and wonder if they can find a solution to improve operations. At some point they wonder if they will outgrow QuickBooks. This paper shows that by separating Operations and Accounting, they can continue to use QuickBooks much longer throughout their growth cycle. This paper explains solutions and options available and when service companies need to consider solutions beyond QuickBooks.
