Flying Club Billing
I am part of a very small flying club that shares the cost and
ownership of an aircraft. We've been handling the billing for flights and such for a number of years with simple versions of quickbooks and its, well, just ok at handling this. Not particularly well suited, but cheap. Unfortunately a bit cumbersome and could probably do more if I wanted to become a quickbooks guru (which I really would prefer not to). Is there anything inexpensive out there that does a great job of keeping track of invoices, fuel reimbursements, credits for expenses and electronic (email) billing? I am trying not to make a career out of billing for the club (my contribution) so I thought I would ask. Thanks |

" Not particularly well suited, but cheap " yes....and cost
is a big part of assessing software and billing systems...you want cheap, paid for, and soething that gets the job done...see if you can get the little bugs fixed using quickbooks, excel, and maybe access.......Use the tools you alreadu have b4 looking to spend addt'l $$ to shop, install, train on new systems...I can't think of situations where you shouldn't be able to fix small stiff....run a craigslist ad for a high school kid to assist amd a low hrly rate if needed...I have seen 5-10m sized companies run fine on quickbooks... good luck !! richard colorado c172 rg On Jan 12, 6:31*pm, wrote: I am part of a very small flying club that shares the cost and ownership of an aircraft.

You can buy the previous year's versions of programs like MS Money (business edition) or Quick Books for small change especially if its the "South African" edition. You'll likely never notice the difference. I use pricegrabber.com but I"m sure there are others. -robert |
