Which digital service do you use for international payment and different currencies in your business?
I've struggled for about a year with the decision of what to use for accounting when Windows 10 goes out of support this year, as my only windows machine at work is a headless old windows box that I only use for running #QuickBooks.
It seems the entire #accounting industry* has gone to web-based solutions, and I can only conclude that they are all horrible and clunky as frick. And it's not from lack of trying on my part.
I'm also amazed at the number of web forms I encounter in the wild where pressing Enter doesn't do anything, even when the button in question is highlighted. UI designers don't know anything anymore.
The art of UI is really in its "Lord of the Flies" moment right now. :'(
* Which, to be clear, not the industry I'm in, but I'm beholden to the "solutions" they currently offer. Taking a HARD look at #GnuCash, because I'm just not feeling the web-based stuff.
Surprised to hear this. From what I can see so far, emphasis on the double-entry bookkeeping principle is actually part of how #GnuCash differentiates itself from #QuickBooks. Bearing that out are the few people that are saying the extra manual effort GnuCash's double-entry system requires is one of the reasons they prefer tools that don't expose them to it.
Agree that what makes various business accounts different is not the ledger but the special reports they generate.
MS Windows is so unusable now that my wife agrees it's time to come over to #linux. The problem we need to figure out is the bookkeeping software for our [currently very] small business. She is used to but not totally stuck on #Quickbooks, which doesn't run nicely on Linux. Also we'd rather not support Intuit and are resistant to a hosted cloud service.
Can anyone share experience with #GnuCash or similar for self-hosted small business accounting on Linux (Ubuntu/Pop_OS)? Boosts appreciated.
OK, so QuickBooks (Intuit) now requires a subscription to use their software, even the desktop version. So I need a way to manage the books for 5 different companies that don't have any crazy requirements.
Has anyone out there ever migrated to GNUCash from QB? Any experience with it? How about getting really crazy and using something like ledger or hledger? I'm fine with the CLI but getting my bookkeeper and CPA on board with this will be fun.
@blainsmith it seems like limeleaf is similar business to mine, what do you use to manage your books?
Just looking for general advice on migrating away from QB. Preferably an open source tool but I'm open to anything. My only requirement is that I can run it offline. Bonus points if it runs on Linux but I'm fine with using a VM if need be.
Boosts greatly appreciated!

Mastodon may be free but boy has it convinced me to finally spend money to get off evil platforms. #Amazon and #Meta done, now to replace the #gmail account I've had since its eternal beta. Microsoft's going to be the hardest as my wife relies on #Quickbooks and wisely won't use the web version.
I currently use Harvest for my project management tool. Project budget tracking, time keeping, invoice management, etc.
I would like to move away from this to something that I can host locally.
I'm a single person company.
The minimum that I would need is:
- time tracking
- project budget tracking
- project expenses
- invoice sending
Nice to have:
- automated invoice reminders
- multiple currency support
- reports (time spent, annual reports, etc)
Anybody have experience (I'm not looking for search results, I'm looking for someone who has actually USED software) that is a #selfhosted version of #quickbooks or similar? Think about keeping track of the books for a small business (1-3 employees, 20-30 vendors) #selfhosting

Today I edited a file I have not touched in at least 30 years, since the days of Windows 3.1. And it still does something on Windows Server 2025. My customer can now once again use Outlook to send an email from QuickBooks. WOW. I might not have room to set up a 486 clone and CRT to run Windows 3 but history dies hard. #retrocomputing #windows #quickbooks
Ever wondered how to streamline your invoicing in QuickBooks?
Here’s how:
1. Navigate to the ‘+ New’ button and select ‘Invoice’.
2. Add customer and transaction details.
3. Choose direct email or print options.

This morning, #Quickbooks sent my wife a notification at an email address she has never given either Quickbooks or her employer.
My best guess is at some point some company she contracted for entered that address and her SSN into Quickbooks while paying her, and #Intuit has done an SSN match and decided it's ok to merge records for my wife in their system and use one of her email addresses for a purpose she never consented to and does not want.
Ridiculous and unacceptable.
2/2
For the past five years, my wife has been unable to view her paystub in #Intuit #Quickbooks Workforce.
Over the years her employer has tried repeatedly to fix the problem, often attempting to enlist Intuit's assistance, to no avail.
A month ago they finally seemed to have fixed it, by having my wife create a completely new email address on Yahoo to use for her Quickbooks login.

But then why didn't the memory compression make it usable with 4GB?
It's like it just decided one day that 4GB wasn't enough and started running like molasses (this is accessed via VNC, so swapping is doubly harmful).
I replaced the 2x2GB sticks with 2x4GB, and everything is way more than "right as rain."
I gotta learn #GnuCash quickly so I can get off of this benighted software. This is my only PC and I only use it for #QuickBooks Pro Desktop (I will not use their cloud "solution").
