I do manual bookkeeping for several small businesses. I'd like to set up general ledgers in Excel if that is practical
Any suggestions on how to get started. I've done several reports on Excel, but don't want to waste a lot of time on trial and error to find out that this is not practical. Many of the accounts are stocks and bonds so I want to show the basis, number of shares and cost at time of purchase in the description. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
 
I wouldn't advise using Excel for a general ledger. It would be better to
invest in a copy of QuickBooks. You could certainly maintain the stock
details in Excel-based supporting schedules.
