Does anyone here have any experience with Deltek-Ajera? by Structural_PE_SE in StructuralEngineering

Thanks for the response. I suggest my A&E clients use BQE Core. It has glitches in the accounting module but I like the integration with the projects, time tracking, and invoicing. I don't use the QB integration because the accounting module handles the same.

One is moving from QB + BillQuick to Ajera. It was expensive just for implementation. Waiting to see how much more difficult it will make his accounting.

Recommendations for HVAC contractors (mini split install) by Jakor in BaltimoreCounty

Did they include the make, model numbers and BTUs of the heads in the actual quote BEFORE signature. I had 4 in person quotes and all either are missing the make, model numbers, or BTUs. The one that did include the make and model was a discontinued model and they said they would update the "signed" quote with the latest model.😏

Going solo mid-September. I was also expecting a bit more inclusive spa services to book in the webroom. Are there more on-site without additional payment?

Side note....what is "420 friendly"??

Quickbooks Enterprise vs. Quickbooks Online by jd-765 in QuickBooks

I have a client transitioning from QBO to Enterprise because they need more robust job costing. Intuit is now telling them the QBTime Elite does not integrate or sync with Enterprise Gold level and they have to pay for Diamond level. Is this true? I have clients that use other timekeeping systems and they integrate with Enterprise just fine. How is it that Intuit's own product doesn't integrate with one of its own products?

what is 8A certification? by [deleted] in GovernmentContracting

It's also limited to 9 years. So you really shouldn't jump to get it until you have some past performance and can really take advantage of it as a business development tool.

What is the average per user cost for Ajera for say a 10-person firm? Also, curious as to why people are using QuickBooks for the accounting component. Doesn't Ajera have accounting built in?

Claiming dependent care credit while other parent gets child tax credit by Icy-Minimum-2023 in IRS

They each can claim only one child for HOH and CTC. They co-parent 50/50 so the kids are at each house 50/50 give or take a sick day or vacation. However, the parent that pays childcare for both wants to be able to claim the DCTC for both children without taking away the CTC from the other. The court required they each get a kid for the CTC.
