I need accounting software that will allow me to print and give customers a sales receipt (NOT invoices!) in order to print or email (email order confirmation)?
The type of business I am starting is catalog and e-commerce.
I will have local customers who will need a receipt because of local sales tax laws.
I can't seem to find any software that prints receipts.
If you want an accounting program that will do credit card receipts, cash receipts, along with invoices and statements, you fill find it at this link:

You have probably never heard of Visual Bookkeeper or A-Systems, but the software has 30 years of development behind it, thousands of customers, and one of the things going for it is that it is not QuickBooks or one of the "popular" accounting programs found at places like Sam's Club, Costco, or your nearest department store. What it has going for it is that:
1) The software is an accounting program with a checkbook function in it, not a checkbook program with accounting added afterwards. It has accounting as its main function, not an afterthought.
2) Second, payroll tax tables can be updated by you. Your payroll does not become dysfunctional when the IRS changes the tax tables. This saves you money every year.
3) The payroll can reduce your workers comp costs, depending on how many workers comp rates you use. Some companies have saved so much money on workers comp that they have paid for the software 25 times per year.
4) Training comes with the software, free of charge, in multimedia training sessions (minimovies).
5) The software is expandable, so that you are unlikely to outgrow it, adding what you need when you need it.
6) There is a version with job costing, ideal for contractors, also software that a contractor is unlikely to outgrow.
7) The SBA purchased a copy of the construction version for every SBA office in the US.
8) The software contains a getting started wizard to help you get started.
9) There is a built in Contact Manager, free of charge.
10) The software was designed to be easy to learn.
11) The training includes a course in accounting that is used in universities.
12) The software has an audit trail that is bullet-proof. This discourages embezzlers.
13) The software costs less to purchase, run, and update, should that be desired.
14) The software does not need a CPA to set it up for you.
15) Tech support is in the US, not India or someplace where English is a second language or spoken with an accent that is almost unintelligible?
16) Tech support staff answer questions, they do not read prepared answers from scripts.
17) Novice bookkeepers can successfully run the software.
18) In order to compete with the biggest software companies, A-Systems has had to provide superior software, charge less for it, and provide better service.
This is a summary of what people report when they move to either A-Systems JobView or A-Systems Visual Bookeeper.
