Designed to be quickly installed in-house (an easy startup wizard helps users get set up, connected, and working in less than an hour), Small Business Accounting 2006 is as quick and convenient as it gets while still offering the robust accounting features that today's businesses demand. If you have existing financial information, an import wizard allows you to transfer your existing financial data from QuickBooks or Microsoft Office Excel 2003 and Excel 2002. With this software, you can manage your accounts efficiently by creating customized quotes, invoices, and purchase orders; manage inventory; track payroll and time sheets; forecast cash flow; and much more. Online banking tools can also help you manage multiple bank accounts and stay on top of customer billing and payments. When it's time to pay your employees, you can process your payroll online seamlessly and efficiently with Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP). Microsoft has partnered with ADP, the leading provider of payroll solutions to small businesses for more than 50 years, to provide a wide range of integrated payroll services to meet your business needs.

No matter how much previous accounting experience you have, Small Business Accounting 2006 is easy to use. Whether you want to track transactions with vendors and customers, record banking activity, coordinate payroll, or create and track quotes, purchase orders, and statements, you don't need a technical consultant to help you. The Small Business Accounting 2006 startup wizard helps you to set up the program to suit your company's needs. Best of all, Small Business Accounting 2006 shares information with other leading Microsoft Office programs, such as Microsoft Office Word 2003, Excel 2003, Access 2003, and Outlook 2003. This not only saves you in training costs, but it also greatly reduces the time your company takes transferring and updating data. In fact, employees with Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager Update can perform account maintenance functions -- such as creating quotes, orders and invoices -- without ever leaving Outlook. Outlook updates information in Small Business Accounting 2006 in real time, making data re-entry unnecessary while saving time and reducing errors. These documents can then be customized in Word to sharpen their professional appearance. Using Outlook with Business Contact Manager Update also provides employees with complete and up-to-date account information on any client, enabling better, more informed customer service. This same mechanism allows the company owner or manager to get a one-stop overview of customer account information. In short, Small Business Accounting 2006 is a solution that fits the unique needs of every small business. Regardless of whether your business is growing rapidly, or whether is just needs a simpler and more efficient process, this integrated software package provides all of the tools you will need to finish your tasks quickly, keep on top of the big picture, and have more time to spend on what matters most to you. Note: Microsoft Small Business Accounting 2006 can be purchased as a stand-alone product, or as an integrated component of Microsoft Office Small Business Management Edition 2006.

Great accounting software July 12, 2007 Jerry Brown (Louisiana) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Really like this product I have since upgraded to 2007 because this will not work with windows vista! Microsoft did the upgrade with no extra charge.
Clunky Software March 24, 2007 A. Holdings (Honolulu, HI) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I had high hopes for Microsoft's SBA program, however, it does not stack up to QuickBooks. Cons: - Unable to open file using a file server. For some strange reason, it requires you to have Microsoft's SQL (database) server installed in order to have it served through a file server. This serves as a limitation because it forces you to purchase another Microsoft license. In a small business environment, a user should be able to open their books through any file server. - Clunky. Another irritating aspect is that it opens a different program window on the task bar for each task that you open. If you multi-task, you will see many icons on your task bar, instead of managing your windows within the program under the menu bar. Navigation is also clunky where it feels like Outlook. - Reports are limited. It may be that I have not figured it out yet (see above "clunky"), but I'm unable to find a way to easily customize my reports. It forces you to print detailed reconciliation reports (with many pages), instead of a summary. - CTRL-F (Find). How hard is it to implement CTRL-F and be able to pull up a search box? Transactions are hard to find with SBA. As your book grows, an easily accessible search box is needed to find a check, invoice, and other transactions. Pros: A QuickBooks alternative. If you're a small business owner, it's best that you stick with QuickBooks. It's almost a standard for micro/small businesses.
It's not what it seems January 10, 2007 Rick Hager (Woodinville, WA) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was told it was the same as Quick books! but for a fration of the price! Theres no such thing as a good deal! The only way to get this work right is to buy the rest of the software and then im sure it would be fine but then your paying more than Quick Books.. Its only a module!
Easy to use home office accounting package. January 4, 2007 Robert Hermanns 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I used QuickBooks and Quicken in the past and decided to try Microsoft Small Business Accounting and found it much easier to use. The flow is very intuitive with customization of invoicing and purchase orders being very easy with standard Microsoft Office products. I do recommend that the user read the manual first, it does help significantly. The most beneficial aspect of the software was the ability to do journal entries to correct items entered in the graphical interface. If all else fails simply do an accounting entry in the journal to correct things. Hats off to Microsoft on this one, it works well, is easy to use, and integrates with Microsoft Office.
OK IF YOU DON'T NEED PAYROLL SERVICE January 1, 2007 Dennis D. Kaegi 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Though I received two free copies with some hardware, I will not be using Microsoft SBA because it's payroll services are really bad. If you want to get payroll taxes, etc. to do your employee's checks, you can sign up for a service, but the service is an online company for which data is EXCHANGED with SBA. Internet always required, multiple levels of passwords, what data is going out ? To avoid this you can find the tax rates yourself and use Excel to calculate payrolls and then EXCHANGE DATA with SBA. This takes about 4-5 times as much effort as Quickbooks' automatic DOWNLOADS and, if you go with the online company, costs three times as much as does Quickbooks' equivalent service. Too bad that SBA has this fatal flaw because I really liked the layout and feel of the program.
