50% of the problem is QuickBooks setup was done wrong and it causes you, the contractor, lots of pain and agony. 30% of the problem is knowing how transactions for your contracting company are different from regular bookkeeping. 20% of the problem is your Bookkeeper doesn't love solving puzzles and detective work; they are in the wrong profession.You can fix the first two problems with some outside help from us and some proper training. The last one nobody can fix. The fact is you are paying dearly for their education to learn construction bookkeeping and accounting but you just don't know it.
