Is there a step by step video, book, or something on quicken home and business?

I have a Home Improvement business and I would like to use the business aspects of quicken. E.g. how to set up from Estimates to receiving deposits for jobs and payments and material purchases for an specific job. I like to be able to see if I lost of made a profit. How much I paid out to subcontractors and helpers. And of course taxes.

Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks

    I would suggest you start with with the Quicken in-app help (F1) and review "Manage your Business" topics.  These topics give you a decent sense of how small businesses are meant to be structured in Quicken.  Then jump in to it and ask (or search for) any specific question in this community.

    Your welcome.  Quicken in app help can be a struggle to find topics.  I wish, especially for new business setup / useage, that they would graphically show the workflow,  linking workflow steps to description....
