This week Acclivity launched AccountEdge Pro 2013 for Mac and Windows. If you run a small business, you'll find the software for business accounting and services extremely handy.

AccountEdge lets you manage your business on a Mac, iPhone or iPad. It integrates with Checkout Point of Sale, the Enstore web store and more.

The new document management feature in 2013 lets you attach files to records, including documents, images, and scans. Bills, invoices, purchases, or any type of file can be attached to transactions, and AccountEdge files it away for later viewing.

AccountEdge’s retainers feature gets an update in the 2013 version, adding the ability to link bank accounts. This lets you write checks directly from your retainer, escrow, and trust accounts, as well as transfer funds into and out of these accounts.

Importing and reconciling bank statements is more streamlined and intuitive with the new Bank Statement Import. The new "worksheet" acts as a middle-man between import and reconciliation to improve the workflow of dealing with bank statements. Plus, rules can be created to look for and match transactions.

AccountEdge comes in two versions: Pro and Basic. AccountEdge Pro manages your banking, sales and purchases, inventory, payroll, and time billing, and works with our entire lineup of add-ons and business services, including credit cards and payroll.

AccountEdge Basic is a slimmer version of Pro, and it’s right for small businesses that don’t need all the features of Pro.

Also, AccountEdge Mobile 2 is coming soon. Users of AccountEdge Pro’s companion mobile app can look forward to accepting credit cards directly from their iOS devices. Also included in the update to AccountEdge Mobile: quick sale, receive payment on a receivable, and mileage tracking.
