Does anyone have a spreadsheet they will share for keeping track of expenses?

Thanks,

Quickbooks is valuable tool!! I highly recommend it. I just started doing this and (havent even recieved my kit yet) allready have 3 catalog shows going thanks to the catalogs and order forms I recieved from my director and have an office party schedule. I set up a seperate bank account for my PC and Quickbooks will allow you to track EVERYTHING down to slightest detail. I never like to pay full price for anything and have had great success in finding software on Ebay for half the price. Just watch how much they are charging for shipping. Hope this helps.

I use the reports in PP. I haven't switched to P3, but I would assume they still have a place to do this.

I use the reports on P3...... and I just print them out next tax season and give them to my dad ( he is a tax accountant) and he just plugs the numbers in!!

Like I said I am still very new to this. What is PP and P3 etc.? May want to be something for me to look into. I use QB at my shop and its great because it has all the financial reports you need and all of your data can be sent over the web directly to you accountant.

P3 is the program that comes in your kit - it is how you submit your shows.

PP = Pampered Partner (PC's only software program until this year)
P3 = Pampered Partner Plus (PC's newest software program)


It takes a while to become familiar w/ all of the abbreviations!

Definitely use PP or P3!!!! I've been with PC for 10 1/2 years and only started using the PP expense report 2 years ago.... what a time saver! And my CPA LOVES the reports! Makes his job a ton easier! PC gives it to us in our kits! Use it! Don't reinvent the wheel if you don't have to!
