QuickBooks Online 2024 Reports Overview Get ready because we're moving on up with QuickBooks Online 2024 First a word from our sponsor Yeah, actually we're sponsoring ourselves on this one because apparently the merchandisers they don't want to be seen with us but that's okay whatever because our merchandise is better than their stupid stuff anyways Like our trust me, I'm an accountant product line Yeah, it's paramount that you let people know that you're an accountant because apparently we're among the only ones equipped with the number crunching skills to answer society's current deep complex and nuanced questions If you would like a commercial free experience consider subscribing to our website at accountinginstruction.com or accountinginstruction.thinkific.com Here we are online in our browser searching for QuickBooks Online Test Drive looking for the result that has Intuit.com and the URL Intuit being the owner of QuickBooks selecting the United States version of the software and verifying that we're not a robot Opening up our major two financial statement reports like we do every time The reports are on the left hand side We're in the favorites We're going to be right clicking on the balance sheet and open link in new tab Right click on the profit and loss otherwise known as the income statement Open link in new tab Let's go to that middle tab up top Close the hamburger There's our balance sheet We're going to do a range change Going from 010123 tab 123123 and run it Then we'll tab to the right Close the hamburger Here's our income statement or profit and loss Let's do a range change 010123 tab 123123 tab Run it to refresh it Let's go back to the balance sheet this time Because now we're going to be looking at our reports in more detail So as we've been doing every time we open up QuickBooks Usually we think of the major reports as the balance sheet And the income statement would even call those the financial statement reports That's what we're trying to build at minimum If you're doing tax preparation for your company If you're in the United States You will need an income statement because we have an income tax And for any kind of decision making processes External reporting that you might be needing to give to a bank or something like that If you need a loan or something Then typically the two major reports are going to be the balance sheet Where we stand at a specific point in time And the income statement, the performance report How we did over a time frame Usually represented in months or in years So every other report can get a little bit confusing I mean it's a little bit when we look at all the reports that are available Oftentimes it's overwhelming to people But if you keep in mind that all the other reports for the most part Or the vast majority of them Are just going to give you more detail More information about one or multiple line items These major two financial statement reports The balance sheet and the income statement So keep in that in mind Let's just go through some of the reports in the reports area Other than those to get an idea of how they all tie into these major two reports For the most part Alright so up top we've got the standard view This is where all the reports are located They're grouped in these groupings down below We can actually search for a report Up top as we had done when we did our inventory reports In prior presentations And that will help us jump to a particular report We then have the custom reports We'll talk more about custom reports Possibly in future presentations But those are going to be reports that we have Usually created one of the standard reports And then made adjustments to it And then possibly we want to save that report as a custom report And then it would be housed here So for example if I go over here And if I made changes to this report We can then go up top and save the customization And then we can save the customization at a group And so on We'll talk more about how to do that And when we might want to do that in future presentations But that can save time from adjusting formatting information And we'll talk about formatting reports More in future presentations Then you've got the manage report tabs And these give you some neat report types Which will give you more of a professional layout Possibly grouping multiple reports Into a presentational format Which could be useful for example If you're a bookkeeper and you provide the reports Say to your client on a monthly basis Well how could you give those reports to your client Well we'll talk more about that in future presentations But you could print all the reports out And mail them to them Or give them to them in paper You could make PDF files of the reports But then when you have the PDF files You could email them But to email them you either have a lot of attachments Or you can possibly group them into a zipped file Another option is to You could actually export them to Excel Which we'll talk about in future presentations But that's not usually for presentation purposes Although it has its uses And we could use Excel to put all the reports on one document Or we could use a resource such as this Which gives you a little like an intro page If I go into here It gives you basically like an intro page A table of contents and then your reports So this is another way that we can provide the reports It gives it a little bit different look and feel So we'll touch on that also in future presentations Let's go back to the standard view for now though And give a quick overview of each of those sections of the reports So first we have the business overview section So we have an audit log Which gives us a type of history If I right click on that and open that report It's going to open to the right over here And so there we have our audit log Here's the date changed Here's the user, the event, and the history So this could be useful if you have multiple people Using the QuickBooks file, for example And you say, hey, what happened with this particular transaction Maybe it looks funny or something And you want to go in and then possibly be able to see Who did the transaction, for example And then possibly drill down from there So then we have the balance sheet comparison So note that the standard balance sheet Is going to be the balance sheet report here This is what I would call the standard balance sheet This is the report that's up top in the favorites By the way, you can see it's up top in the favorites Because it's got this little green triangle If you want to bring any other ones up to the favorites You could just click the triangle And it'll populate that one in the favorites But the default favorites are going to be That normal balance sheet and the income statement Because those are the primary financial statement reports So many of these other reports are going to be A variant on the normal financial statement report So for example this one, if I open it up We have a balance sheet that is a comparison of two periods This is something you can actually generate and create From the standard balance sheet using some of the tools up top Which we will do in future presentations But some of them are QuickBooks actually creates for you And puts into this field So that's good and it could be kind of bad at the same time Because it looks overwhelming that we have all these different reports But some of them are just variants Things that have been created from the standard balance sheet And the income statement The balance sheet detail report is going to be A more expanded version of the balance sheet The balance sheet summary report is going to be A condensed version of the balance sheet So these are all just variants of the balance sheet This one has just the account types Without the little drop downs and whatnot So it's gotten rid of basically the triangles Now notice that when you present this information To external users or to your clients Then you want to think about how you're going to group this stuff together So usually you're going to want the balance sheet in there In some way shape or form and a profit and loss report But the first report you might want to start with Is a balance sheet summary report Because it's going to be the simplest thing to look at If you're doing a presentation or something like that You usually want to start with the easy big picture item That doesn't have a lot of detail Then suck people in to be able to understand What you're saying without their eyes glazing over And then hopefully be able to move them along To the more complex and nuanced issues That you need to get into And so you might want to start with the summary The reason you usually want to use the balance sheet Normal balance sheet for internal practices And for more detailed information Is because the normal balance sheet Has all of the accounts on it So you can see this balance sheet here We can drill down on it with each of these accounts The summary balance sheet doesn't have the detail So it's more difficult to drill down on it For internal use purposes Then you've got the business snapshot So if we open up the business snapshot We have then not so much a report But some general kind of information charts And graphs that you can make adjustments for in here I don't use the business snapshot as much Because I feel like if I'm going to use graphs And what not the best way to do it Is to create your own graphs And we can export things to excel to do that We'll touch on that process in future presentations And then we've got the profit and loss As a percent of income Another report that's a variant On our major financial statement reports This time of course the income statement Or profit and loss report So if I go on over here And I change the range from<PHONE_NUMBER>23 And run it Now we've got the profit and loss And we have the added percent over here This is something that we could do ourselves From a standard profit and loss But QuickBooks is giving you that report As well already created We've got the profit and loss comparison So this is similar to the comparison we saw With the balance sheet report Another report we can create From the standard profit and loss Profit and loss detail report More detailed profit and loss Profit and loss year to date comparison Another type of comparison report Noting that when we think about these comparison reports That you can get a whole lot of comparison reports So if you're thinking about how to group reports Monthly, quarterly, yearly Then you want to start to think What kind of comparison reports do we want Because you could have For both the balance sheet and the income statement You could have a month by month report Just running month month month How many months that we've had You could run the reports by quarters To have all the quarters that we have For 22 periods like one month to the prior month One quarter to the prior quarter One year to date to the prior year to date The current month to the prior month And so on and so forth So there's actually a lot of comparative reports Combinations that could happen Once you start digging into those And we can create all of those Not just the ones that have been given to us here By default from the standard balance sheet And income statement Profit and loss by customers And then we have the profit now Which is going to be an income statement Related item broken out by Who we sold it to by customer Which would only be there in instances Where we are recording income With the use of the forms Of an invoice or sales receipt Not with a deposit form most likely And then the profit and loss by month So now this is just going to be another form Of profit and loss but now breaking it out On a month by month basis Profit and loss by tags So if you have tag tracking on This is another kind of filtering option That we could see profit and loss by tag Here's the standard profit and loss The one that we have open That has the green box in it Quarterly profit and loss summary So now we have a profit and loss by quarter And then we have the statement of cash flows This one is the other main financial statement And I ask why don't I open this every time When I open the balance sheet and income statement Given the fact that the three financial statements I'll change the range up top 01, 02, 03, TAP, 12, 31, 02, 03 Are balance sheet income statement And profit and loss And balance sheet income statement And statement of cash flows Profit and loss being another name For the income statement And the reason is that the statement of cash flows Although it's a major financial statement report It's a little different in that we don't actually Think of ourselves as creating The statement of cash flows as we enter Normal financial transactions Meaning when I use these forms up top I don't think of them if you were to build these From scratch you're not actually building The statement of cash flows You're building the profit and loss And income statement and then we typically Think of using the profit and loss As an income statement to then Construct the statement of cash flows So the direct thing that we're creating From the data input is The profit and loss and income statement The statement of cash flow gives us more detail We'll talk about it more later But the general concept would be We want the best of both worlds Oftentimes for both the benefits Of an accrual accounting system Meaning we report income when it's earned Expenses when they are incurred As opposed to when cash flows But we also think that cash flow is important So we would also like to see A statement that summarized the data In a cash flow basis And that's how we get the kind of the best Of both worlds We make our financial statements In accordance with the accrual system And then we got the statement of cash flows Has three categories operating activities Investing activities And the financing activities So keeping with our theme To think of the statement of cash flows Although it's another major financial statement Report as though it ties Into the balance sheet account Of all of the cash accounts Because that will in essence be The bottom line of the statement Of cash flows But we can also basically think of it as Taking the financial statements Balance sheet income statement And rearranging them in more Of a cash flow basis We'll talk about that more In future presentations Going back to our first tab The next set of reports Who owes you money So who's going to owe us money? Customers Why would they owe us money? Not because we made a sales receipt Type of transaction Because then we would have sold on a cash basis If they owe us money We possibly made an invoice And therefore this is going to be Tracking the balance sheet account Of accounts receivable Accounts receivable being An accrual account only used If we're on an accrual basis Invoicing clients It goes up with invoices down With the received payments So we've got the accounts receivable Aging detail report And the accounts receivable Aging summary Let's open up the summary Just to get a feel for that one It's going to give us our Information by customer Here and it also gives us then How old or outstanding The balances are by customer Which can let us see which customers We need to collect on Which customers we might not want To be selling to anymore Because they're not paying us And which accounts receivables Might not be collectible Given the fact that we haven't Received them in some time We have the collections report We've got the customer balance detail Which is the report we've been Looking at in prior presentations Whenever we looked at accounts receivable We've got the customer balance summary Let's take a look at that one And this is going to be Similar to the detail But instead of giving us detail It's just going to list out the customers The balance that they owe us The total tying out to 528152 Matching the balance sheet Hopefully of the accounts receivable 528152 So that's what the subledger does It breaks it out by customer Rather than the normal transaction Detail report Which would be what we get If we click on this Which only gives us the detail by date Back to the left We've got the invoice list Invoiced are the forms That increase accounts receivables That basically kind of ties into the AR as well We've got the invoice and receive payments The two forms that have an impact On accounts receivable It goes up with invoices Down with the received payments We've got the invoices The open invoices Open invoices are the ones That we have entered But which have not yet been paid Which once again Basically make up the outstanding balance For accounts receivable We've got the statement list Remember that the statements are The reports that we can send out For periodic reminders Rather than basically sending an invoice Out again as a reminder And that could be useful Because it allows us to Set the statements automatically Possibly set them to happen You know monthly Or to do that monthly For all customers for example And if there's multiple invoices Then it can group them possibly Into one statement as opposed to Two invoice reminders Terms list This is the terms like the net 30 And so on how long Or distance from the point We enter the invoice So we're going to expect payment on And then we've got the unbilled charges And unbilled time These are things like We entered time Or we entered an expense That we expect to then pull over Into the invoice And use as part of our invoicing process These represent those charges Expense forms that were billable And time input That we have not yet pulled over Into an invoice So we can track that Then we have the sales and customers So sales should sound like An income statement account It's basically an income Another term for basically Revenue or income So we would expect most of these reports To tie out to the income statement lines On the income statement So they're going to tie out to this In some way, shape, or form Now of course where did we get all that Income? We got it from customers So it might be related to customers As well So we've got the customer contact list Doesn't really impact the financial statements That's more like where the phone Numbers are and what not But it lists the customers We've got the deposit detail So this is going to give us a detail About the deposits Which deposits being actually A check-in, a balance sheet account Which is a check-in account So we could come up to a similar report Basically by going into the check-in account And then in our transaction detail We could filter By the transaction type Of deposits Right, we could do our filtering option So that's another way You can get to a similar report The reason I believe they put it over here And the sales and customers is because Hopefully most of the deposits Are coming from Our customers Let's just take a look at that one If we open it up We've got our deposit Detail report And let's see if we can say This month I'm going to say Let's say this I changed the range To a custom range of 2023 And so now we've got Our report here So there it is Let's close that one back out Let's go back to the first one We've got the estimate And progress invoicing Summary by customer So estimates are forms That don't really have an impact On the financial statements But ones that we still want to track Because we might make A invoice from the estimate The progress invoicing Is something that you're going to do If you're in a job cost system So that would only apply there Noting that normally When we make an invoice It's because we completed Some kind of job If we're not in a job cost system So if we did bookkeeping work Or something We issued the invoice But if you have a long job Like a year long job Then you might need to like Collect on the job Before the job is complete Which is a little bit different Than the normal revenue recognition system That would be in a contracting situation Where you might find that The estimates by customer So once again we have the estimates Broken out by customer Income by customer summary So this is going to take the income line here Our income accounts And break it out by customer So that's nice to do And that's one reason Like on your income statement We don't typically make multiple income accounts That are broken out by customer I don't list my customers under here Why? Because that would be a long Messy income statement And I can run another report Let's change the range<PHONE_NUMBER>23 Which can give me that detail Breaking out the income by customer This report should tie out To the income statement Income but may not always Be exact It's not being forced to tie out Such as the accounts receivable is When you look at its sub ledger Because QuickBooks restricts you From investing to it But if you record all of your sales With the sales forms That being the invoices And the sales receipts And you apply a customer It should tie out Note that if you're in a deposit system Or a Using the bank feeds And using a deposit form to record sales You might not be able to get access To this report So if you're in gig work And you're getting paid by platforms Like YouTube Or whatever Then you might actually want to list The customers in your income statement Or profit and loss Because you're not going to get the added detail Of the income by customer Because you're using a deposit form To record the transaction Instead of the sales receipt Or the invoice We've got the vendor balance Inventory Valuation detail Now this is an inventory report But I guess they put it under the sales area Because it's related You were selling inventory So this is going to be income So this is the Inventory valuation summary It should support actually a balance sheet account Because this is going to be supporting This is the one we've been taking a look at Let's take a look at the summary It should tie out to the balance sheet account Of inventory So it gives us our units of inventory Total inventory Let's make this as of 123123 Total inventory 59625 Balance sheet Inventory 59625 So that would only be useful If you one have inventory And two are tracking it on a perpetual inventory system Within QuickBooks So we have the payment method list This is the list of payment methods Cash Or check Or whatever We can add to that list So that when we receive payments With the received payment Like a sales receipt We can enter the type of payment Which could be an internal Use to track for example Physical inventory worksheet This gives us a list Of our inventory items So we can do a physical count Of the inventory possibly And we might want to do that periodically Even if we're using a perpetual inventory system Product service list This is our list of products or services The things that are going to be on the invoices Bills Sales receipts Sales by customer detail So now we have another This one Sales by customer Versus the income by customer Now if I open these two up You'll note that the sales by customer Gives us the sales line And the income by customer over here Gives us the income And the expense line So they're slightly different reports Because when we sell things We might have an expense related to it as well So although they look similar They're both basically tying out to The cost of goods sold They're I'm sorry Tying out to the income line item by customer They're a little bit different So we have the sale by customer detail Sales by customer summary Sales by customer type detail So if we have customer types And we've categorized the customer types Then we might be able to track our Income by customer type We have the sale by product service detail This sale by product Let's look at the summary So now we can break our sales out By the things that we sold Which are the items that we set up So if I change the range 010123123 And run it So now we've got our Sales by item And the total down below 01028050 You would think would tie out to The income statement 0102 doesn't exactly Because once again just like the other Sales report by customer We're not forced by QuickBooks To use an item whenever we hit The sales account as we are Forced by QuickBooks to use a customer Whenever we create the accounts receivable account Therefore the AR account Ledgers almost always match the AR here Not so With most of the other sub-ledgers Although If we use our sales Forms, the invoice and sales receipt To record sales and use an item Every time The total here should match What we have on our income statement And we can break out this report By what we sell So note if I go to my income statement Notice we have a lot of detail On our accounts here But as a general rule We don't want to put all the things That we sell, all inventory items On the income statement for the same reason We don't want a separate income account For every customer It would make a long income statement Number one and number two We can run a sub-report Which will give us that information So we don't have to clutter it up On the income statement However, you're only going to be The sales receipt As the forms that you're going to Record income with If you record income with the deposit form As you might do with the bank feeds You're not going to have that added detail Although you might not need that added detail Just beware Time activities by customer detail So now we can run The time activities by customer Transaction list by Customer, so now we have the transactions Mapped out They will give us a transaction by customer So all the transactions And then we got the transaction List by tag group The tags being that added Feature that we can have To further filter and sort our reports We have a whole another course or section On tags if you want to look at that So what you owe What do you owe, who would you owe money to Well you don't owe money On the expenses if you were to use An expense or check form You paid it off when you owe it You owe money when you enter a bill A bill is an accrual form On the balance sheet So there is our accounts payable Accounts payable is an accrual Account representing bills That have been entered that have not yet been paid So these accounts You would expect to be given more Information about the balance sheet account Of accounts payable 1099 contractor balance detail And summary 1099s Are reports that we need for tax purposes Specifically in the United States Related to contractors And it's for basically contractors That aren't incorporated And that they're Usually like sole proprietors or contractors So that's a report In and of itself for tax purposes Accounts payable Aging detail And accounts payable aging summary Let's take a look at the summary Similar to the accounts receivable Aging summary Now tracking the payables And how past do they are Now they are our payables That we are late on And this would give us an idea That we might want to actually pay The ones that are past do And so not as useful as the accounts receivable Report normally Because we would track that stuff internally In the payable center But you can see it's a mirror image Or a similar report to the accounts receivable Bills are the forms that increase The accounts payable So this is giving some support Of the AR account Bills and applied payments So the bills are the things that increase The accounts payable The payments are the things that decrease The accounts payable So this is giving us the detail behind The accounts payable Not by date but by bills and payments We've got the unpaid bills Bills are the things that increase And the sum of all the unpaid bills Should in essence be what's in accounts payable And then the vendor balance detail This gives us Our vendor Our vendor balances The people we owe money to In detail and then the summary Let's open up the summary This is our classic sub ledger account If I look at This is who we owe the money to The total adds up to 160667 That should tie out And should pretty reliably Tie out to 160267 Here because Like with the accounts receivable The accounts payable QuickBooks forces you every time you hit Accounts payable with something To add a vendor So it forces you to make the sub ledger Tie out unlike as we saw with the sales Reports Then we have the expenses and vendors So who are the expense What are expenses there on the income statement So you would think this would give us more detail Information about the expense forms Who do we pay the expenses to We pay them to vendors So we have the 1099 transaction Detailed report again 1099 being a report for taxes We've got the check Detailed report so checks Are kind of a balance sheet account Like with the deposits you can get to an Approximation of a check Account by going to the balance sheet Going into the checking account And then filtering it By the transaction Type that decreases checks And expense forms This might give you another look at that And it's on here because Most of the time when we pay Expenses and checks we're paying them for The expense side of things We're paying them as an expense Expense by vendor summary So now we have all of the expenses Now we're thinking about the expenses Broken about out By who we paid it to As opposed to on the income statement By what we paid it for Over here we paid it for advertising Fuel and so on But we also want to know Like we wanted to know on the income statement Possibly we wanted to know who gave us the money Customers Over here we want to see who we paid the money To that would be the Vendors So we have expenses By vendor open purchase In the list the purchase order Are the requests for inventory Would only be used if you have inventory And even if you have inventory You might not be using the purchase orders If you are internal document You'd still want to track the open purchase orders Even though this one has no impact On the financial statements Like the estimate form It's an internal document Open purchase order detail Again the purchase orders Purchase by product service So now we can look at the purchases That we made purchases usually kind of Referring to inventory that we bought By product meaning The inventory item lists that we have set up Purchase by vendor detail So again we're looking purchases This time by who we purchased it from Inventory in essence usually with purchases Transaction List by vendor So now we're thinking about all of our Transactions that are listed out By vendor Vendor contact list Giving us the vendor phone numbers And all that kind of stuff Sales tax So the sales tax in the United States It's a kind of usage tax It's going to be applied on the state And local level Therefore not uniform across the entire country We talked about the fact that you have to Set up the sales tax first Set up the items that are going to be The primary component or resource That's going to be driving Sales tax and then you deal with the customers So once it's set up you can run reports Like the sales tax liability report It's telling us How much sales tax We've collected that we need to pay out To the government Taxable sales detail So these are the sales that we have On the detail which could give us information Possibly to help us fill out Any kind of sales tax forms That we need to fill out possibly And then we've got the taxable sales Summary So the sales that are going to be taxable These reports probably can be found As well in the tax center If you go down here when you're managing Your sales tax more likely You might find them from there As you're doing your sales tax We've got the employee reports Now the employee If you're running payroll within QuickBooks Then you're going to have Probably more reports that are showing here We might look at payroll In more detail When we go into the section On our practice problem Or section or course on practice problem We might have other courses On payroll in particular As well it can get quite detailed Because we have a lot of reports We need to basically think about With the payroll Because we have to track each employee We have to track each employee By pay period And at a year to date basis And we have to Track if there's any caps that are involved We have to track the withholdings Both federal withholdings Social security, medicare, federal income tax And state withholdings If there are any As well as Voluntary withholdings 401k plan Or retirement plan of some kind And so on So we have to track all that detail So generally there could be More reports if we do that internally Here If we have an external person doing the payroll And then we input that stuff Into our system We're still going to need to import it In some way to our system To make the financial statements correct But we don't need all the added detail In our system because that's what The payroll company will hopefully be doing So we'll talk more about that later But there's multiple accounts dealing with payroll That it would be supporting The payroll service payroll system Set up Then of course the payroll Would most likely have A liability account For the payroll liability For the withholdings we have had That we have not yet paid And it's going to have the income statement Accounts of payroll Or expenses, payroll expense As well as payroll tax expense That we'll have to deal with Talk about that later Some of these might be duplicated down here We've got the account list So this is the list of the accounts Kind of like all of the General ledger accounts In a list So we've got the balance sheet Comparison, so we've already seen that Up top, so they kind of repeated it down here A normal balance sheet, they're repeating it again I think the idea that In their mind was like Well, these are the reports that you might give to the accountant At the end of the year, so we're going to put them In one spot down here But nowadays it seems like the accountant Should actually have access to your quick books Possibly, because you can add them as an accountant To do your taxes and whatnot So I don't know, they got some repeat This is the general ledger If I go into the GL This is going to be similar to when you go into An account and drill down And you get that transaction Transaction report Because this is giving you the transactions By date, but it's only giving you One account at a time The general ledger If I change the range from 010123 To 123123 and run it Is going to give us all of the accounts Right, so now we've got the checking account And we've got the detail and it names it You know, a general ledger But this trend, you can see the transaction report Is in essence the same thing It's also So that's, it's basically a similar Kind of report in that Fashion, and then of course You can filter the report You could possibly trim it down And the filters are up here This time, customize And then you've got your filter items So I'm going to close this back out So that's our general ledger It used to be that we had to Print this general ledger oftentimes And give it to someone if there's a problem But now, these days Oftentimes the way people will drill down Is to go to the actual balance sheet Or income statement or trial balance And then drill down on the account That they're particularly looking at That way, which is very nice And then we've got the journal So if I open up the journal report This will also give us all of the detail Of the activities that we've entered Into the system But it does it in a journal entry format Let's change it to a custom date I'm going to go from 010123 To 123123 and Okay So this report, notice Is really nice if you want to learn The debits and credits So you can see all the transactions And you can see the transaction type Deposit, bill, invoice And you can see it in a debit and credit format The accounts that are impacted In a debit and credit format So that's nice Another use for this report would be That if you're reviewing somebody's work Like if you're supervising someone Or it's works good in the classroom And you want to see what they did You can then run the report And you can see the transactions That have been put into Into the system So that's nice Another use might be that When we think of the billing system We talked about setting up your items For a billing and you might have Just an hourly billing system If you're a bookkeeper Another way you can try to do that Is run a report like this possibly And then count the transactions And say I'm going to bill people Based on how many How many transactions Or how many accounts were impacted And that might even be more Better than doing it By the number of transactions Because some transactions are longer than others So if you have payroll Or something that you're processing You can have a long complicated journal entry As opposed to just some bank fee transaction Paying an expense which will be very easy So if you actually say To bill people based on how many Accounts were impacted in a month Then that could be a good use Now you might say what am I going to do Count all these You could export this to like Excel And then use the counting feature To basically count the transactions A little bit difficult because you got Subtotals and stuff But I don't think it would be that difficult I won't actually do it right now Because we're running long on time But just a thought Well I'm going to close that out And then we've got the profit and loss comparison We looked at that already Profit and loss by tag We saw that up top Profit and loss We've got the receipt Automatic Recent automatic transactions So these are the transactions that happen Automatically because you set them up To be reoccurring Recent transactions Could be useful if you're looking at the transactions That have happened recently Once again if you're trying to figure out Pretty recently or If you're auditing somebody else's work Reconciliation reports This is normally going to be a bank reconciliation Now even if this is one of the myths That I've heard out there Like if you have a bank feeds You don't need a reconciliation You don't need a bank reconciliation But that's not really true The bank feeds help you to do the bank Reconciliations Or possibly they create the books Which based on the bank That still means that you want to do a reconciliation Just to make it'll be an easy reconciliation With no differences But you still want to do it To make sure that your books are tying out To the bank's books And it'll be very easy in that case But anyways this is a report That's a little bit different It kind of ties out to the checking account Here but we're not actually creating The bank reconciliation As we're doing the data input Entering these forms As we are with all the other reports Instead we finish the report And then we're double checking It's an internal control process The bank reconciliation process So we can double check our books To the bank's books So we'll talk about that In its own section or course later Recurring template lists So this is a template A list of the template We already saw the statement of cash flows Transaction detailed by account So this will give us similar To the general ledger But in a transaction detail format And then we've got the transaction list By date Now this is another one That you could use Possibly to help you out Maybe with your billing Because now this will give you Your list of transactions Let's give it a custom date From<PHONE_NUMBER>23 This will give us a list Of the transactions that took place But doesn't give us all the details It only gives us the transaction And the other split account It doesn't give us all the accounts Affected if there were more than two of them But it would be easier to count this up If you're like, I'm going to bill somebody Based on how many transactions I have done within a month You can export this into Excel And count the transactions With account function pretty fast and easy And that's one way You might set up a process To see how much work has been done Transaction list with splits So this is going to be a similar report But it has the splits Involved in it now So if I run this from<PHONE_NUMBER>23 Run it So now we've got the activity With the splits in it this time This one's a little bit different though Because it runs it by account And then date Right So that's interesting So I'm going to close that one back out And then we've got the trial balance The trial balance is actually a really useful report Because you could use it to replace The balance sheet and the income statement So these are reports that the That they say it's for the accountant<PHONE_NUMBER>23 Because it has debits and credits But even if you don't know the debits and credits Notice how much smaller this This report has everything that the balance sheet And income statement has in terms of the accounts It doesn't have all the subtotals But it has basically the balance sheet On top of the income statement So if you want to drill down on these accounts You can just go to the trial balance So here's all the checking account The liabilities account Equity accounts Income accounts Cost of goods sold And expense accounts all on one form Why is that great? Because then I can have this open Instead of these two When I'm working And if I want to look at the impact Of a transaction That impacted both cash Or income statement and balance sheet I can go into this one form And check out the detail on the checking And I can check it out on this side And I can go back And then I can check out the income statement side Down here In one form And I don't even have to scroll as much Because it doesn't have all this Subtotal detail stuff in it So we might start using that a little bit more In the future And then you've got more payroll reports Payroll contact list Time activities We'll talk more about payroll a little bit more In the future That's an overall review Hopefully that gives you a little bit More of a feeling that all of these different reports Mainly Shouldn't be too scary Because many of them are just basically A variant of the financial statement Balance sheet income statement Comparative reports And because The rest of them mainly are going to be More detail about one or multiple line items On the balance sheet or income statement And the ones that aren't There's just a few that have some different Kind of use Such as obviously the statement of cash flows And the bank reconciliation For example, that one being An internal control type report


Cheers Long time You were in Rithik's underwear Namaste, I'm Kaffir Saswagathe, who made our superd reactions. Yeah, it's I'm Corbin Mita namreke And close on Instagram Shame falls our own personal YouTube channel slinks right down there for you and And What are we doing right?  We're gonna do a movie review And today's movie you're we're watching movies like they're like going out of style We're gonna we're gonna we're gonna start catching up and watch everything in the releases just like that like hotcakes We're gonna spit them out every movie that comes out. I know we can't do that. It's like two thousand. I don't want to do that either They're not all good. That's true Just like not all stuff in Hollywood is good. That's true. Actually a lot of stuff is terrible here. It's true. Anyways, but today we're Reviewing the Hindi film Kapoor and Sons They believe it's a 2016 film. It's a It says comedy drama romance. I think it's a family drama romance dramedy Probably yeah, it fits that with it definitely emphasis on the family drama. Yeah, obviously Yeah, I think like but I hope but I think but I hope it's going for more humor than I think you're going for this one Yeah, a legit drama. Yeah, but anyways directed by Excuse me. I'm still clearing my throat directed by Shikun Bhattra who also was the primary writer writer of it. I think he correct my producer as well And we saw this trailer how long ago long time ago you're like 14 months ago probably it was a long time ago. It was it was we might have to go a boy. Yeah, but we were And I have a lot of alia I think most of these are new introductions for except for Rishi Kapoor Well, no, we've never seen a film. Oh, oh, yeah, no, but we've known yeah Yeah, yeah, but I think we might have seen the dad in something But it was like a probably like a background role or if we have seen the other folks besides alia It would be we've forgotten. Yeah reminding us Anyways, just let you know it's 100% spoiler view if you haven't watched it I'm I think a lot of you already have very popular film, but if you don't spoil you don't spoil Go watch it come back.  I was thinking the exact spoiler Here it comes Anyways, Rick initial thoughts initial thoughts. I have a couple of sentences Mm-hmm a plain and simple movie that's pretty formulaic that I wish had gone backwards I'll explain that in a second and whose cast does the best they can before they're given Yeah, that's my takeaway from and I have particular things to say about alia since we know her the most Yeah, and have been exposed to her But I really felt like it was it was pretty simple There were a couple of surprises But for me that it tied it all up in a bow kind of a thing and what I meant by it going backwards Yeah, I wish we had had I wish the movie had started at the fight scene right when I wish it had started at the family photo If the movie had started right when they're taking the photo and then they get in that big fight And he goes off and gets hit by a truck and he's in the hospital Yeah, I would have been like what the heck is going I did not expect that. Yeah from this trailer. Yeah So yeah, no, I enjoyed it. Well at the first of it it was definitely I First what our something You're like, okay, this is nice. You know, this is like a nice man. It's fine. Yeah, it's fine Nothing nothing nothing bad nothing nothing great But obviously the mean potatoes of it is the last I'd say 30 minutes 30 minutes of a film Definitely it definitely catches you like that part with it's just like thing after thing after thing after thing after thing That's the movie. Yeah, I was like it could have been a short film I mean you could have taken that last 30 minutes. Yeah a little like during that part. It's definitely I It's nice when a film can catch you off-guard It keeps it that's doing it keeps doing it Because obviously you figure out that okay He's gay now right now his mom saying terrible stuff to him and then or right before that you figured out the The dad was over there when they weren't saying the right things to each other at that moment And then you figured out the mom was the one that stole the story and gave it to the other brother great twist And then to top it all off. They just killed the day I was waiting for Rishi Kapoor's character to be the one to die right you thought that was gonna be so I Obviously the the beginning which I don't want to say it was boring, but it was just it was like, okay This is I agree. It was fine. Yeah, and that's what I meant by the actors did the best with what they had I felt like everybody was believable. It was definitely more not plot-driven. It was the Relationship driven for sure. Completely. There wasn't obviously a lot of plot going on none out And so and that was probably to the point. It was this is this family's drama right poor and his son's Drama and they have a ton of it My favorite thing about the film. Yeah is both the character and the portrayal by Rishi Kapoor He did phenomenal. We'll talk about that. That's that's my absolute favorite part of film If someone said to me hey, I want to watch this would you watch it with me? The only reason I want to rewatch it is so that could enjoy watching that character in his portray Oh, I wouldn't say that I was not that I disliked the rest but the rest of it was kind of like this is one Okay, I could take it like this is one. I like you could sit and have on just to have on like if it's on TV I'd probably stop and be like, okay if there was nothing else on yeah, no It's not I'm not saying I'm gonna go out of my way, but if it's on I'm like, oh, but like what I was thinking of when I was watching it cuz It falls for me in the same genre category, I guess it's like Deborah Yeah, but I'm I would much if those two were on I'd be in a heartbeat. I'd be watching Deborah And it depends on what point of the movie it is. I guess yeah No for me. I would and then then there's I mean if English vanguishes on yeah, forget it So but yeah, so like I I thoroughly enjoyed the film I'm not it's not like obviously the best movie ever for sure. Oh my but I don't it's not gonna It's I wasn't trying to be no, this is definitely a set out It was this is a family drama and it let you know that at the beginning just like the guy. Oh man the way Indian families argue and communicate. Yeah, it's just sometimes it's it's like it cuz it's so different and here Here's the I will here's the Accolade I would give it as far as I believe there is absolutely I don't believe I know you'll agree There is an audience who there are many people I wish the whole world loved cinema that were cinephiles and loved the art form Sadly, there are people who just don't they will never care enough to want to know all the Dimensions of the art form and the higher-level artistry of it and they just like to see a movie every now and then That is the audience that I think would most appreciate this film as an audience that doesn't necessarily want to see something That's gonna be artistically driven and have a great message They're just gonna enjoy themselves see some believable characters enjoy some twists and walk out with a smile. Yeah. Yeah, well Yeah, that's that's what I I went into this expecting and that's basically what I got Yeah, was the fact that I knew was gonna be a pope. I didn't know it's gonna be like that simple of a just that Me too. There's the relationship between them. Yeah, but that's basically what I was going and expecting Okay, it's gonna be a family drama But then it turned into a really enjoyable film. It's obviously the end. I was glued to the screen I wanted that very dear and basically that point. Oh me and my wife both watched it Like when we got a gas when the truck hit him. Me too.  You just did that. Yeah So that I literally I was sitting there was kind of I was kind of bored although I love the fight I'm like, okay, we're starting to get into some nitty-gritty. We're getting to the end here And I'm watching him and the thing hits him and I went Okay And obviously we kind of gasped as well when you found out the mom was the one that stole the novel Yeah, because obviously not the parents of the year for sure these two no these two parents Like they're they're basically the problem. Yeah, this entire family with the free the grandfather's great the kids They're fine, you know, he that's that's that's the way when you're he's supposed to be 90 You that is exactly how I want to be when I'm 90. I want to be like that guy Yeah, these but the two parents are the ones with all the issues. Yeah, because obviously he's the one having the affairs She's the one that took the novel from them. They have clearly have a favorite child, which is terrible and the only other And then obviously the mom was like all saying terrible things when he came out as being gay And so it's like the out the parents actually the actors who did him phenomenal job. I thought I totally believed him I felt like they're just assholes. Yeah, I felt everybody was solid. Yeah Rishi Kapoor for me was the same. Yeah, we can talk about Rishi. Let's talk about Rishi This is our first introduction to his acting in a film and now we know it's actually one of his later Yeah roles and not though stuff. He's famous for and back in the day I thought he did phenomenal. I did too. I loved his character and while the makeup wasn't You know, Oscar level believability. No, it wasn't it was still solid enough that it didn't distract me Yeah, his performance definitely made up for it And the thing I love like most good actors in situations like this is they're not playing the makeup Yeah, they've already they've created a character that you would have seen whether or not you had the makeup there but it does help because He was he was supposed to be playing a 90 year old man. They had to do make a bottom I couldn't even think of anybody unless they got an actual 90 year old person But why wouldn't you get Rishi Kapoor if you could do that but make a bomb? Yeah, and I just I thought he was the life my favorite character as far as the writing of it Mm-hmm as well as the way he portrayed him I loved his little message to the boys at the end that they watched and I just I thought he was Great great really really good the entire film obviously you always just rooting for this old perv He was hilarious. He's like I totally a hundred percent believed him. Yes. I'm use he was cool You always want to have a grandpa like that. Yeah, you do my grandma is like that Yeah, my grandma Betty Boop isn't going to is that her actual name or do you just call it no We call her that because since she was a little girl Betty Boop has been her favorite cartoon character So her nicknames been Betty Boop her real name is Eleanor, but she goes by Betty Boop. She's 92. She is fiery She's feisty. She does stuff on her own She if she has to go up the stairs She's got her little thing that she sits in and it takes her up the stairs We've joked about when she hit 90 when we would just push her off a thing and we were laughed We were joking one day about her dying and she was sitting there listening to us laugh and we're joking for like 10 minutes But she's just sitting there at one point. She says go ahead and laugh I'll haunt Yeah, so Rishi was obviously he was phenomenal Before we move on just let us know what his next thing that we should watch our pants I want to watch especially that the end little Skype thing. He did.  They surprised you as the audience And it was the freaking dad who got hit by a truck, right? Yeah, which was once again phenomenal loved it. I Thought Alia did a good job. Obviously you could see her growth definitely from this to Yeah, even gully boy and obviously with gully boy. She had a lot more to work with She gave her her great. She always reminds me of a more fiery Emma Stone Usually always who interesting. I think well, they would play comfortable roles. Yeah, absolutely But you know, I've the utmost respect for Emma Stone. I think she's one of the phenomenal She's still in the firing us and Birdman and in She adds a little bit. Yeah Zombie land. Yeah, she was on the more for sure in the one scene She's got with Michael Keaton where they're fighting is she has that quirkiness that you love about her And so in this role, I thought she did as well as she could have yeah, it was it wasn't a very Her character was interesting but there really wasn't enough written into it and I was watching her really closely on her story about her parents and You can what again? It's a diamond in the rough in this what I what I could see was what we know about her her inclinations Her natural instincts that come from a love of wanting to do movies since she was a little girl. Mm-hmm And it just it shows she's very natural and comfortable on camera But there was stuff that was very obvious that she's very green She's still had a long way to go Nothing remotely close to what we saw in how much we enjoyed her in in rosy You know that that was far more nuanced And she's she's she's she's she's also a supporting character. She has yet to do her best work Yeah, I mean we're gonna see the best of her stuff in the years to come. Absolutely. Yeah The two brothers I thought did well. I they were probably the weakest of the bunch in my opinion, but they didn't want bad They were believable But they they were just they would probably the weakest of both. I also don't know them as well So I this is the first I'm ever hearing or seeing of both of them unless they've been in some trade Yeah, I just don't know. Yeah, I just don't know but yeah, I thought they were fine But the two parents I thought did really really well.  I Love I love I love the stories that they gave them though because it was a very complicated Situation you can say towards because you were trying to figure okay, okay Who he invited her one which was stupid?   He's like I don't know what to say.  I was saying earlier you would you enjoy it But I didn't think of a hundred films. I would watch again Like hella row I just watched that one a second time.  I would watch again Before I would watch this we watch hella room before this I think we set up Rick with some unrealistic expectations. No, no, no, no, no, no, no do not make the mistake of Thinking that I'm trying to make a comparison between this and yeah, just did Rick their motion pictures So they have a similarity in the fact that they both were made to go on to a screen You can they're both movies. That's like comparing Avengers to Birdman. They're both movies You can't compare them. I can if I want to they're both movies. No, I'm not. They're both movies. Anyways, that's the review Although I will say I was grateful that the guitar playing looked real It might have been I don't know all that matters is it was believable when did you play guitar? Can you remember when they were all sitting around? At the house. They were all kind of like hanging out and playing together. Oh, they decided to sing a song together Yeah, it was playing the guitar. That's right. Oh, also the music was good It was it was a party number was fun when he just gets to the party with alia and they have the bathroom scene That was fun a lot of joint smoking in this but duh. Whoo. Get some joints Rick. You're old your joints are bad. Oh people


Salutes to departing member representatives convened by Wendy Pratt-Louget at the 161st ARL membership meeting. Before we acknowledge the representatives for whom this is the last meeting, we do want to circle back and welcome a new member, Ann Colleen Cook. Where are you? You're going to do our introduction?  It's truly my pleasure to introduce a new colleague for us. Loubne Gauti is the new librarian at the University of Le Bal, and I want to say bienvenue à mon art ARL. That's about as far as my French goes. She had an interesting path to North America and to research librarianship. She landed in 1999 from Morocco in Quebec City. I was expecting at the University of Le Bal to enroll in an MBA program. Unfortunately, she found out that the course was offered one online and most of the courses were related to programming, so she said, I think I'll go to the library and talk to the librarians. So she did. She dropped by and someone took her in hand and explained what the library program was at the University of Le Bal and she enrolled and her life changed forever. So we make a difference in a lot of ways. At Le Bal, she rolled in the library school program and she thought, you know, my dream job, Carol Dietrichs once talked about Ohio State being her dream job. Loubne's dream job was being director at the University of Le Bal and that is what she is now doing. Eleven years later, after having been director of the Science Library, director of the Humanities and Social Sciences Library at that institution, Le Bal, the library is the largest French speaking library in the world, in America, okay, in North America, and her life has changed obviously very much. She has a bachelor's degree in information science and obviously a master's degree in library science from the Université de Montréal and she also completed a second cycle micro program in human resources. As I said, she comes to us from Morocco and is so typical of my colleagues in Quebec. One of the things I love most about living there is that English is her third language. So she also obviously is fluent in Arabic and French. So I just have to say once more bienvenue encore et félicitation. So we have several tributes to member representatives for whom this is the last meeting and so I call upon Brinley Franklin, Brian Shotlander and Dana Rooks to bring your colleagues to the microphones. Well, it's an honor for me to salute Dr. Joan Giesicki today, a friend and colleague for a long time. Since joining the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1987, Joan went on to serve as dean of libraries from 1996 until earlier this year and now serves as special assistant to the chancellor and dean emeritus at the university. So I asked Joan recently to reflect on her 25 years in Lincoln, Nebraska and she fondly recounted five significant differences she noticed after relocating from Washington DC. The first is that everyone stops and says hello in Lincoln, Nebraska. Second is that six cars at a traffic light is heavy traffic. Third is it's hard to find good seafood in Lincoln but easy to find good beef. Fourth, when you live in Lincoln, unless you want a wardrobe that consists of Husker ware, you learn how to shop in airports and while traveling. And speaking of traveling, when she's at the Lincoln airport, she's on a first name basis with the TSA staff. But Joan accomplished a lot while serving as dean of libraries at Nebraska. She oversaw the renovation of a library that had been built in 1945. She completed the construction of a high density storage facility. She helped to establish the center for digital research in the communities. She increased the diversity of the library faculty from 2% to 12%. She served as interim director of the University of Nebraska Press and has interim assistant vice chancellor for online education. Joan's a consummate professional and a hard worker. She's taught library school courses. She was the editor of library administration management and served as the president of LAMA. She served on the ALA budget advisory and review committee. And in 2011, she received the American Library Association Equality Award for her work in promoting diversity in the library professions. She's been active in ARL's diversity programs including teaching research methods for ARL's leadership and career development program. And she served on the ARL statistics committee and most recently the ARL board of directors. On a more personal side, the last quality I like to mention about Joan is her courage. The cowardly line could have learned a lot from Joan. I'm not just talking about the courage to face the challenges that life brings on, although many of us admire her for that. I'm also talking about the courage to battle the government printing office for nine years. To try and provide a cooperative shared depository program with Kansas. Is there any greater measure of courage than to take on title 44 of the cuddle pair relations? Joan's currently a member of the ALA committee on accreditation where I'm sure she'll be able to make a great contribution as she's now coordinating campus-wide accreditation issues at Nebraska. And it's process in her new role as special assistant to chancellor. Please join me in wishing all the best to our friend and colleague Joan Giseke. Brian? Good morning. I'm doing double duty this morning. So I'd like to ask Gary Strong to join me and Ruth Jackson at the microphone as well. Give him an opportunity to make his way here. So this morning it's my pleasure, my privilege and my challenge to pay a farewell tribute to two wonderful University of California and ARL colleagues and friends. Colleagues and friends who between them have more than, and I'm not saying this to make them feel old, more than 90 years of professional library experience. And more than 60 years of experience as library directors. I speak of course of Dr. Ruth Jackson and honorary doctor Gary Strong. How to sum up careers of such magnitude and distinction in the four, yes, four minutes allowed me. Well, in thinking about how to condense their resumes, I considered using the fine print on the car lease approach. You know, something like, from 1984 to 1988, Dr. Ruth Jackson served as assistant director of libraries and head of public services at the University of North Florida. From 1988 to 1999, she served as dean of university libraries at West Virginia University from 1999 to 2002. She served as dean of university libraries and professor at Wichita State University since 2002. She has served as university librarian at the University of California Riverside. From 1976 to 1988, Gary Strong served first as associate director for services and then deputy state librarian for the state of Washington. From 1980 to 1994, he served as state librarian of California. From 1994 to 2003, he served as director of Queensborough Public Library in New York and since 2003 he has served as the university librarian at UCLA. For additional resume information, please call 1-800-ASK-ARL. This approach, however, simply skims the surface of where they've worked while telling you nothing of what they've actually done. So let me take a minute, and I do mean a minute, to describe to you some of their accomplishments at only their current institutions. In her 10 years as UL at UC Riverside, Ruth secured more than a million dollars in funding to carry out the technological upgrades needed to deploy state-of-the-art staff at public workstations, including activating nearly 2,000 ports in support of both wired and wireless access and printing capabilities. She led the development of UCR's first-ever information learning commons. She collaborated with the faculty of the College of Humanities, Social Sciences, and Arts in planning a state-of-the-art media library facility. She established the western region Tuskegee Airmen Archive at UCR as a component of a national effort to collect and preserve the history of the distinguished group of African-American men and women. She led the initiative to have UCR designated as a patent and trademark depository library by the U.S. Department of Commerce. The first such designation awarded a University of California campus and only the third such facility in the state of California. And finally this year, she successfully lobbied for the UCR libraries to share in the university's new student technology fee, the result of which the libraries expect to receive approximately $650,000 annually for three to six years beginning this academic year. Those of you who have been following the California economic situation can appreciate the magnitude of that accomplishment. Meanwhile, in his almost 10 years at UCLA, Gary established the digital library program, established the Center for Primary Research and Training, established the Center for Oral History Research, established the scholarly communication program, established the Conservation and Preservation Center, and created the research commons to support digital scholarship and instruction. He co-chaired the campus' committee on information technology infrastructure, chaired the campus' data management strategy group, and represented the UC libraries on the University of California Press Board. Both Ruth and Gary have of course contributed substantially to the profession as well. Ruth served as a delegate to the White House conference on libraries information service in the late 1970s and on the ad hoc committee on implementation of the White House conference resolutions. She chaired the West Virginia Academic Library Directors Group and served as a member of the Kansas State Library Commission. She serves currently as a member of ARL's Diversity Committee and has, for a decade, served as a member of ARL's Statistics and Measurements Committee. The woman is a saint. Gary, meanwhile, co-chaired the National Academies panel on the future of libraries and museums and served as a member of the advisory committee to the Institute for Museum and Library Services, studied on the future of the library workforce. He served as a member of the National Research Council's Committee on Intellectual Property Rights and the Emerging Information Infrastructure and is a member of the advisory board of the Public Knowledge Project. He sat on the governing board of IFLA, served as IFLA's NGO rep to the United Nations, and chaired the National Organizing Committee for the IFLA Boston Conference. Not surprisingly given this impressive list of achievements, Ruth and Gary have enjoyed their share of accolades. Ruth, who was the first African American to serve as Dean of Libraries at both West Virginia University and Wichita State University and the first African American to serve as University Librarian at both UC and within the entire UC system, is a member of PI Lambda Theta, the National Honor Society for Outstanding Women in Higher Education. She is a recipient of the Outstanding Alumni Award from the Hampton Institute of Virginia. She received the Distinguished West Virginia Award, and amusingly, and I haven't had an opportunity to ask her about this award, the Non-Italian Woman of the Year Award. I mean, I knew she wasn't Italian, but she has been recognized as an honorary Tuskegee Airman, the first woman ever awarded this honorary designation. Gary, meanwhile, is the recipient of the Knowledge, Trust, Honor, and Education Award, the ALA Humphrey Award for International Librarianship, the 21st Century Librarian Award from Syracuse, the Charlie Robinson Award from the Public Library Association, and the Distinguished Service Award from the Chinese American Library Association. And, recently, he became the recipient of an honorary doctorate from the University of Idaho. On a personal note, Ruth, who is a native of North Carolina, is the proud mother of one son, a musician, producer, and performer in LA who, amongst other things, taught Tom Cruise how to play guitar for the movie Rock of Ages. She, like many a good librarian, is a collector. She collects arrowheads and, like me, comic books. We each take pride in owning mint, or at least near mint copies of Silver Surfer number one. Gary, who is a native of Idaho, is the proud parent of two children and two grandchildren, and is a true bibliophile. He is a member of the American Printing History Association, the Book Club of California, the Grolier Club, the Roxbury Club, the Sacramento Book Collectors Club, the type of files in the Zamorano Club. He likes clubs. I can attest to the fact, having been to his home, that his personal collection of fine press publications is of extremely rarefied quality. In closing, I would be remiss, given yesterday's comments about our newer colleagues, were I not meant to make reference to the athletic prowess of both Ruth and Gary. As those of you who know, who attended yesterday afternoon's wonderful program moderated by Harriet Hamasi, Ruth remains on target for nailing the Olympic gold medal in the cell phone hustle.  Please join me in acknowledging and congratulating these two fine press. When Jack asked me to do his farewell remarks. Is this not on? Oh, okay. I started thinking back to the things that I knew about Jack through the years. And many of us know many of his longstanding and very significant professional achievements through his career at Maryland, Yale, and including leading GW into our membership here in ARL. So I decided you knew all that. Or you can look it up. But I realized that while I had the unique position, was in a unique position of knowing Jack for a long time, I had a lot of dirt. I mean, excuse me, I mean information about Jack that most of you, his esteemed colleagues, would not know. So I decided to compile a list of the top 10 facts you might not know about Jack Siggins. He didn't pay me enough not to say this, so I'm going forward. The first little known fact is that I've known Jack Siggins for over 50 years. So while that may say a lot about both of us in terms of our ages, I will point out that I was in my very early teens when we first met. Jack was not. I've known Jack longer than he's known Maureen, a fact that I remind her of repeatedly. Second, number two fact. Did you know that Jack won his first Alfred E. Newman look-alike contest in 1953? Number three, we all know Jack is a leader, but you may not know that this leadership ability emerged very early as senior class president of the Tulsa Central High School. Number four, some of Jack's very early career positions, which have proved useful to him throughout the years, included Ditch Digger, Jack Hammer Operator in a construction company, and an announcer at a country and western radio station in New Mexico. Jack attended, number five, Jack attended Princeton University on a full academic scholarship, having rejected an offer from Northwestern. Sorry, Sarah. After graduation, number six, Jack married Betsy Martin, the daughter of one of our early library legends, Allie Beth Martin. The marriage didn't last, but Allie Beth talked him into library school, which seems to have held. Number seven, he joined the Army as a language specialist in the Army Security Agency, and immediately found himself stationed in Saigon. But it gets worse. He then went on to become a spy with the Defense Intelligence Agency, who are waiting on the tell-all book. You may know Jack as a very self-assured man and a great husband, but did you know that he's very proud and beaming when on more frequently occasion than he may like, he is introduced as Maureen Sullivan's husband. Number nine, Jack's had a vacation place on Martha's Vineyard for many years. I don't know about any of you, but I've never been invited to visit. And finally, number 10, his future plans include, first, he's going to work on two major library construction projects. He will be the one managing Manning the Jackhammer. Two, he's writing a book on leadership, which he's writing in partnership with Maureen. I'm told that his chapter focuses on the influence of class presidents in secondary education. And three, lastly, his plans include spending more time on Martha's Vineyard. So check your email for your eBite. Jack seems to have misplaced my address. But Jack, we want to thank you for your friendship, your contributions, many of them, as we know, to our profession and your longstanding leadership. Enjoy the next stage of your life and stay in touch. I'll send you my email again. Thank you for listening. Music was provided by Josh Woodward.

Hello my beautiful internet friends and welcome back. So first of all, thank you so much to everyone who left such loving Wonderful comments on yesterday's video. I was pretty nervous to post that and you guys have just been lovely But today we are going to tackle a topic that I've not actually seen a lot of information about and I've been pretty curious about for years Which is pain compound cream You don't know what pain compound creams are don't worry because I didn't either for quite some time There's sort of a newer thing in the medical field medical world Essentially what they are is they're topical creams that are medical grade doctors have to order them They're specially made by special pharmacies this one for instance was made by sunshine pharmacy Which I believe in the mountains of Colorado If you don't know what's been going on my leg since my last surgery back in March I've had nerve pain. That's just been made it impossible for me to use my prosthetic leg And there's also been just mounting more pain. It looks like more things are developing It almost looks like the burst is coming back So essentially my doctor prescribed this to me to help treat the pain to hopefully calm things down So that we can get back to a place where I could actually start learning to walk again. So I've had this for a couple days I've used it a couple times does it work I also looked into studies recently on these to see if they're more placebo effect or if they really are effective And this one for instance has ketamine as the main ingredient is 15% Gabapentin 6% Cyclocybazinoprene, I'm sure I said that wrong 2% Tetraxine and Diaclophanax Good thing I'm not a pharmacist because I did not say most of those words correctly The thing with these creams is that they have really strong medications in them for instance This is 15% ketamine. Ketamine is a really strong drug, but the cool thing about it is you're not actually ingesting it It's not going into your body.  Gabapentin Which is another ingredient can really mess with your head a lot of people have negative side effects to it But applied topically it might not affect you the same way Side note that is not to say that if you've had any issue with internal medications You should put them on topically talk to your doctor Don't listen to anything I say over anything your doctor says talk to them about this But in this case I was prescribed this to hopefully help they come with a handy-dandy dosing card And I'm supposed to use this twice a day I have actually had topical Pain compound creams before years ago the problem is that my insurance stopped covering it I used to have a pain compound cream for my neck. I would get shipped like six bottles of it from Florida I don't actually even remember what was in it This was a couple years ago until my insurance stopped covering it And this was about the time that I believe a lot of insurance companies stopped covering pain compound creams And it went from being like five bucks to being over a thousand dollars And there was no way that I could ever afford that and it helped like it helped a little bit It did not take pain away by any means, but it kind of produced a numbing effect So it was helpful. It was a bomber that that was taken away, but I found other ways to deal So when he suggested this cream my first question of course is this is going to break the bank and it's not cheap This little bottle right here was a hundred and forty five dollars. He initially prescribed two That was going to be just shot you 300 dollars So I thought you know what let's just give it a shot first and see how it goes So let's go ahead and put some on and I'll walk you through kind of the sensation as it sets in So this is my shrinker here. I'm going to go ahead and take that off This is the affected area essentially. There's a lot of pain centralized here and then also over here So using the dosing card you should use about that much So then I am just going to rub this in really thoroughly Then make sure you go wash your hands because that stuff is powerful So the first one I noticed when I first put this on is that I didn't really feel anything But that was like within the first few seconds. It does take a minute or two to set in So the very first time I put it on It probably took about five minutes until I noticed any effect and it was kind of just like a numbing Like it just wasn't as intense actually touching the skin.  It's not something that I'd really go out of my way to do It's almost like the trouble of actually getting it out Putting it on washing my hands negates the help that it gives by relieving any pain The pain relief is very minimal for me with this particular compound But that's the thing with pain compound creams. There are so many different varieties You can literally mix any kind of medication. That's one of the reasons that they're so expensive Is because they are all completely custom. Now as promised, I also did look into some studies about this This particular study came out of the walter reed national military medical center and what they found essentially is that Between a placebo and the actual pain relief cream. There wasn't a huge difference They studied long-term pain patients and acute pain patients and what they found and I will link the study below is that There wasn't that much of a difference that the benefits were minimal if any in this study They did actually try a couple different kinds of compounds and that is what they found Like I said, I will link the study below. So check it out yourselves That is not to say that this doesn't help some people For instance the the compound cream that I had years ago It was a different mix of medications and it really did something for me Now whether that was a placebo effect or not, I can't tell you But I can't tell you that it was helpful enough that I used it multiple times every day Now this on the other hand I will probably use if it's around and I feel like using it and getting up and washing my hands and all of that But it it really doesn't do all that much unfortunately. That is my experience with pain compound creams I'm curious what yours are. Have you ever been prescribed it? Have you ever had it? Do you think that it's worth the expense? One of the biggest issues in my opinion with pain compound creams is that insurance companies don't cover them And that makes it so expensive like if this worked really well This should last me about two weeks So it'd be just about three hundred dollars a month that I'd have to pay out of pocket just for this That would throw off anybody's budget So while this sounds like a promising option and maybe they'll come up with better ways to use it long term My experience is that it's not super worth it that it's too expensive for what it is I am grateful for the chance to try it, but I would not necessarily recommend it to anybody But hey, if your doctor prescribes something like this and you have the financial ability to try it Give it a shot. It can work for you. It does work for some people Like I said the one I had before worked well for me and I I wish I could remember what was in that one Let me know your comments in the comment section down below. I look forward to chatting with you guys there Especially big thank you goes out to all of my patrons. You guys are amazing. Our patron of the day today is sunday bret Thank you sunday so much for helping me out for your continued support You've been a patron for quite some time now and I I noticed and I really appreciate that Thanks guys for listening. I look forward to seeing you my next video Again, thank you for sticking with me this week. It's been a pretty rough week I know the video I released most recently was a lot more real and a lot more raw than I am super comfortable being And the response that you guys had was so incredibly loving and supportive and I haven't had a chance to respond to everybody's comment But I can tell you that I have read every single one of your comments your stories I know more than ever that I'm not alone when I'm feeling and please know that if you're dealing with depression You are not alone. You're not the only one feeling like you're feeling you're not crazy There's definitely help out there and it does get better and I'm in the midst of finding what better looks like myself Because some days are better than others and today's today's an okay day So I'm gonna hop back to what I need to get to but I want to take a moment today to share with you guys my thoughts on Pain relieving compound cream And give it a two out of ten. Thanks guys for listening. I'll talk to you soon I'll see you in the next video. Love you guys. Bye


The Surface Navy Association wrapped up three days of information sharing and networking as the 28th annual National Symposium came to a close on January 14th. The event featured more than 80 exhibits highlighting the latest in surface warfare technology and the way ahead for future research and development. This year's theme was the Surface Warfare Strategy, a view beyond the horizon. Government contracted defense companies, suppliers, and commands gathered to collaborate on distributed lethality and how it improves the Navy's reach and ability to control the sea. But the simple fact is, for the Navy and the Marine Corps, our presence is our posture. That's what we do. For more information on the SNA Symposium, visit www.naviesna.org.
