URGENT News Flash – Do Not Click on QuickBooks Security Notice
Published 10/31/2011 | 
We’ve had several clients report receiving emails supposedly from Intuit with the title QuickBooks Security Notice or QuickBooks Update. These emails are not genuine. DO NOT click on the link.
Here’s what it looks like – note non-USA date formatting. It’s a dead giveaway. The link varies, but it’s never an Intuit website and every one I’ve seen this morning has an international domain (.de or .ch instead of .com). You can normally see what a link’s URL is by hovering over it. I removed it below because I don’t want anyone accidentally clicking on it.
You will not be able to access your Intuit QuickBooks account without Intuit Security Tool (IST™) after 31th of October, 2011.
You can download Intuit Security Tool here.
After a successful download please run the setup for an automatic installation, then login to Intuit Quickbooks online to check that it is working properly.

How to Track Sales Tax or VAT that You Can Claim Back QuickBooks
Published 10/29/2011 | Neither option automatically tracks VAT, but you can create a separate account to keep track of it in your chart of accounts and use it on the Expenses tab. Or you can create an item that’s mapped to the account and use it on the Items tab.
In either case, it shouldn’t be an expense account. I’d either use a current asset or a current liability account (which would have a negative balance).
