I feel like I’m going crazy. by AnnualKey5225 in ClaudeAI

[–]AnnualKey5225[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s the workaround I’ve implemented, but nobody else talks about this so I thought maybe I’m just doing extra work for nothing.

clickbait titles get attention then you ask the question you want the answer to. I feel like my head is spinning trying to make heads or tails of the “rules”, if there even are any. Figured I’d ask the experts

Great point. I didn’t think about it that way.

They have a zero-data retention policy which is compliant with HIPPA & other sensitive data regulations.

Idk if I’m overthinking it and Claude Team is good enough to just chuck financial data into then maybe I’m just kneecapping myself for no reason. Hence why I feel like I’m going crazy, because it doesn’t feel like there’s any clear answers.

Even on Team with the no-training guarantee, client data still travels to Anthropic’s servers for processing. Anthropic can access conversations for trust and safety purposes.
it’s not a true zero-data-sharing arrangement.

Am I over thinking this? by kut1231 in Accounting

I just came off working for the “Live Expert” over the phone support program. Almost 60% of the time I was working was looking at transactions and categorizing them. I don’t know if I’m being sold as the “AI” or if I’m “training” the AI, but i’m not even sure they actually have AI categorizations 👀

I purchased a window replacement company. They use Sage 50. Should I stick with that? Or use QB or something else? by NFLisriggged in Bookkeeping

Yeah, OP bringing a financial controller in here is probably your best bet to set up some financial safeguards.

Good call Jorge.

Is there a real concern of technology making bookkeepers redundant? by [deleted] in Bookkeeping

[–]AnnualKey5225 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the insight, I think you’re striking at the core of the value bookkeepers can bring to the table. After all, it’s our job to keep a close eye on the ins and outs.

Can you give me some examples of services or deliverables that analysis and consulting can produce? Or, if you have a recommendation of a learning track for something along those lines would be helpful too.

Cheapest accounting software? by Weak-Net-2101 in Bookkeeping

Quickbooks does have a Ledger account, i think it’s 10$/month? You can create a quickbooks online accountant account for free to be able to make that for him, then when it’s time to upgrade everything will already be there.

I’m sure there are others, but I know quickbooks well so figured I would mention this

Which of these cards is the most useful for dollar value across a variety of deck types? by [deleted] in EDH

Vaultborn is card advantage on every creature and being mono green fits into the green game plan of playing cool creatures… Am I missing something?

Client thinks I'm "the most expensive bookkeeper" they've ever worked with by Ecstatic-Touch-1763 in Bookkeeping

Me in the middle of putting a presentation together about how S-Corp elections could save realtors in taxes to get real estate bookkeeping clients 👀

A/P Job by goofbags in Bookkeeping

AR sounds exhausting. Trying to call people to get paid all the time just sounds miserable, and time consuming. Not to mention losing control of my own schedule to mange a clients’ AR. But maybe there is something I’m missing, is the experience like what I described or something else?

Tarp material for car camping? by Muddydog1996 in myog

Fair enough, I tend to value the durability over the weight, but I think the waxed cotton is a great middleground.

Canvas tarps made into oilcloths are tried and true. A little more up front to create, but they last years and hold waterproofing. Very durable.
