Well, I'm trying to get my accounting under control and I'm not doing a very good job. Right now I have a number of TextEdit files going to keep track of things, but needless to say this is about the least efficient or effective approach possible.

I tried QuickBooks New User Edition, which came with my G5, but I'm finding that it's too complex for me.

What I'm looking for is an easy to use accounting program that can handle invoicing, bank account balance, accounts payable, and accounts receiveable. I don't know if there might be any options other than QuickBooks, but I thought that if there were, someone here might be able to help me out. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
 
There are several accounting packages made for database programs, but that isn't the way to go. For the Mac (and also windows) there is a program called iProfit, which is very easy to use and does more then everything you described. The guys behind it are very Mac-minded, so it's very logical. My brother uses it for his own company and I have set it up for him and booked lots of invoices and bank statements a couple of years ago. If you have made an error in it you can correct it. I believe this was a package for the European market at first, don't know how it developed in the last couple of years, but have heard only good things about it. I should know, I'm a bookkeeper and working with SAP at my company (SAP is a real pain in the ...).
