QuickBooks Premier – the financial management solution that doubles as a business planning solution.


QuickBooks Premier is a robust business accounting solution that simplifies more complex business and financial management. It’s ideal if you need advanced stock controls, pricing and job costing capabilities. Run reports to see how you can be more profitable, and understand your bottom line with snapshot overviews and detailed reports.

Once you've created an invoice, simply e-mail via Outlook.

  • See where you're profitable so you can determine how to grow your business, with sales and expense forecasting– so you can focus more attention where it pays off.
  • Monitor business performance – over 135 customisable reports, and QuickZoomTM feature to access report building blocks quickly and easily.
  • Organise data all in one place with one-click customer, supplier, and employee centres. Get a high-level view or drill down to more detailed information, including contact information and complete transaction histories.
  • Work from anywhere – use remote access across a secure internet connection for more working flexibility. Your accountant can review your data from anywhere, too.
  • Look more professional – customise templates with your own logo and colours, and send estimates, invoices and reports as PDFs, directly from QuickBooks.
  • Expert tools, for non-experts – locate and correct errors quickly and easily with the always-on Audit Trail, protect information by setting permission levels, and advanced journaling lets you auto-reverse entries and post them directly to your earnings reports.



Get a general overview of your stock or an itemised view.
Track stock easily and estimate more accurately, for retailers, manufacturers and service providers such as construction businesses:
  • More accurate component prices – buy and sell stock in varying units of measure
  • Track stock from inventory assemblies through to finished goods
  • Set automatic discounts by customer or by job
  • Easier and quicker estimating – generate sales and purchase orders from estimates, and set prices for products or jobs

Customer Reviews

premier 2008 problems if up-grading2
forced to upgrade from pro 2005 to premier 2008 as support being withdrawn. many issues if up-grading from pro. My problem was stock and units of measurement. Bug in software (one of many). Cant use premier 2008 until sorted so back using pro 2005. Also aware of issues with VAT.

Quickbooks Premier 20085
QuickBooks Premier 2008

We have used Quickbooks since 2002 and find it a very simple and easy system to use. We have recently upgraded from the 2005 Standard version to Premier 2008 and it was extremely easy. Quickbooks do advise that your historical VAT records will not run in Premier 2008. Our advice is to upgrade the day after your VAT period end and you MUST leave your old software on your computer, just in case you or the VAT Office want to review your records.

Once you have installed your 2008 Software you have 30 days support FOC. We suggest that you get support to reset your VAT Control to a zero balance for the start of the new VAT quarter. Do not input any Bills before doing this.

Simple, Intuitive and Packed full of Functions.5
As a complete accounting novice I have found that Quickbooks Premier 2008 is extremely user-friendly, very simplistic and intuitive.
I have used the package to teach myself the basics of accounting and now feel confident with the responsibility of keeping the accounts in order.
I would recommend this package as it offers many functions suitable for all sorts of business requirements.
