MacNail Accounting Worksheet Basics

The MacNail construction accounting software uses separate worksheets, or files, to store different chunks of information.

Worksheet Types

The primary MacNail accounting worksheets are of the following types--

* Checkbook Ledgers (or just plain Ledgers) handle your money transactions. Each of them will have the word Ledger as a part of its file name. Ledgers store basic financial information that you will want to keep around for a very long time.
* Logbooks (or just plain Logs) store information about specific expenditures. Each of them will have the word Log as a part of its file name. Logbooks contain fairly valuable information, but you probably won't have much use for them after a few years.
* Reports provide specific information of some kind. Each of them will have the word Report as a part of its file name. Reports are expendable--you will make them, use them once or twice, and then toss them in the trash when you are done with them.
