Hello and welcome to NewsClick. You're watching Present, Past and the Future. International pages of newspapers and quality websites, including NewsClick, are packed with news of a world which is rife with strife. And I'm not just talking about Hong Kong, which has been in headlines. Look around various parts of the world. Protests are underway in Indonesia's West Papua province, Argentina, Swaziland and even Germany. These theatres of protests are often surprising because they are associated with the status quo and status quoism. It is astonishing that the young are protesting in hundreds of thousands while the parents are worrying for them at home. The young have nothing to lose but their shackles. The elders are worried that whatever they build by playing safe will be lost to romanticism of youth. But is it wrong to ask questions? Is it necessary to be obedient and docile? I think there is nothing wrong in protesting. Anyone who says raising the flag of revolt is anti-national has no idea of history, even Indian history. Exactly a hundred years ago, India was witnessing high level of discontentment. Causes were multiple. The British imperialists wanted to enact the Role Act. It jeopardised personal and press freedom. The law also provided the government with unchallenged powers to brand any Indian a terrorist. They could be jailed for up to two years without trial. People rose in protest at Mahatma Gandhi's call for Satyagraha. This angered British officials and one army officer mercilessly gunned down hundreds of people in Jalyanwala Bagh. If this was not enough, martial law was imposed in Punjab. The Hunter Commission appointed to probe these disturbances was an eye-wash. And General Dyer became a hero for British public who collected funds for him. Colonialists also announced constitutional reforms, the Montaigou Chem 4 reforms which did not satisfy Indians. Indian Muslims, many of who risked lives for allied forces during the First World War, were disillusioned. Promises were made that the caliph of Turkey would be treated fairly. But the British went back on the pledge. This August, we mark the beginning of the centenary year of the non-cooperation movement. But it is not part of the Indian government's programs yet. Protests, movements and agitations are not part of its copy book now. A hundred years ago, Gandhiji and other Indian nationalists took it on themselves to challenge the might of the colonial state. They forged unprecedented unity among Hindus and Muslims. In his ultimatum to Vice Roy Chem 4, Mahatma Gandhi wrote how the peace terms with Turkey shocked Indian Muslims and affected him personally. He wrote and I quote, As a staunch Hindu wishing to live on terms of closest friendship with my Muslim countrymen, I should be an unworthy son of India if I did not stand by them in their hour of trial. With that began India's first mass movement and the national movement forever changed gears. The goals of the Congress transformed with the non-cooperation caliphate movement. From aiming for self-government constitutionally and legally, Gandhiji steered the Congress into seeking Swaraj by non-violent mass agitation. Suchadha Mahajan joins me today to discuss this watershed movement and also shed light on what importance is there for contemporary India. Suchadha teaches history at the Jawaharlal University. Welcome Suchadha. Thank you. You know, I have often wondered that a hundred years ago in an India which was not prepared for mass agitation, what kind of magic did Gandhi and others weave to be able to actually enlist people for a mass agitation on issues which in today's world appear to be very common. A hundred years ago might have appeared very vague, personal freedom, press freedom, constitutional reforms. How do you, as a historian, explain as to what they did to be able to galvanize the people? I think what Gandhiji brought into the national movement was the masses. And how did he bring them? He brought them in by removing the fear of the British. I think that was the main, if magic, if you want to call it, that people were no longer afraid of protest. People were no longer afraid of walking out. He gave a call in non-cooperation, for example, that boycott the legislatures, come out of the universities and colleges, come out of the courts. So it was non-cooperation with the government, which was the main strategy of the movement. But he also married this, as you very rightly said in your introduction, with the Khilafat movement. And it was that combination, that synergy, two strands coming together, which was, I think, the very special quality of this movement. Khilafat, I would want to immediately come to, with the movement actually, Khilafat movement comes in. Right now, especially within the Indian right wing, the Hindu forces specifically. The general argument is that Khilafat movement, you know, symbiotically linking it with non-corporation movement, was the first instance of the Congress's appeasement policy towards religious minorities. I think this is absolutely rubbish. It is said that Gandhi ji introduced religion into politics and that communalized the situation. There is a big difference between Gandhi's idea of religion, by that he simply meant morality and ethics. If he took up the cause of the Khilafat, it was not as quote-unquote a Muslim cause. As he said, that as a Hindu, as an Indian, this was something which affected all Indians. And therefore, it was also a very anti-imperialist issue that the Khilafat, the head of the Caliphate, the head of the Caliph who was the Caliphate, who was the head of the Ottoman Empire, he was thrown out and the way the Ottoman Empire was dismembered among the allied powers, that it was also taking up an issue which was a burning international issue and he took it up as an Indian. But the proponents of, you know, what I am saying, you know, that as an instance of appeasement policies of the Congress, that this is the first instance of Pan-Islamism in India, that this is what eventually paved the way for, you know, global jihad. Well, I think this is absolutely a link which is totally untenable. What followed in India was when if we look at the Pakistan movement, that had nothing to do with Pan-Islamism. In fact, it was all based on the ideology of the Tunation theory, that Hindus and Muslims are Tunation. There was no element of that. The Ulema, which had played some role in the Khilafat movement, played, they did not support the Tunation theory or the Pakistan movement. If you look at the main players, Moulana Azad, who was, comes up as a leader at this time, he remains clearly with the Congress. So the trajectory, if we want to look at it from Khilafat onwards, is that of an anti-imperialist trajectory, where nationalist Muslims come into the Congress and they remain with it till the end. So are you trying to argue that the Tunation theory was essentially very little to do with religion or religious identity, that it was completely political in nature, whereas Khilafat actually was the religious aspiration and the religious, you know, desires of the Indian Muslims. You're absolutely right. There was nothing religious about the Pakistan movement. As I said, the Peers, the Ulemas, none of them supported it. It was a pure strategy that Jinnah comes up with at a point when a journalist asks him, that are you saying that there are two nations in one village, Hindus and Muslims, two nations in one village? And he looks back straight at him and he says, Hindus and Muslims, yes, in one village. He compares or rather he tries to bring it into comparison with the issue of the black discrimination in the US, which is not a religious issue at all. So he poses it as a disadvantaged groups, that is the Muslims according to him who are disadvantaged, they haven't got their share of political power and this political power and he moves from demanding cultural rights to demanding a separate nation. So the trajectory is very clear and it is totally, even in the end, the use of violence coming out on the streets, what happens in Noakali, in Calcutta, etc., it's purely a kind, it's a movement which is, you know, very cold-blooded. It's very clear the message he's giving. He writes to the Viceroy, he says, look, you have pushed us out onto the streets. I was happy with the constitutional negotiations but now if you don't listen to us, we are going to the streets and if you listen to the Congress because they have forged a pistol, then we too today have forged a pistol. So he reinvented the Muslim League in what he thought was along the lines of a mass movement of the Congress type.  That is, it actually meant outstepping outside the government framework. You know, even children stepped out outside, you know, government schools and, you know, which were run by the British and then they went into their own societies, society created its own institutions. Similarly, likewise, we get a lot of, you know, other evidences, the more we get deep into it. Now at a conceptual level, you had non-cooperation, 10 years after that you had civil disobedience. It was a huge leap in terms of strategy, but in terms of political strategy and conceptualization, what was really different between non-cooperation and civil disobedience? I think that non-cooperation is really an early stage. Gandhi had not yet, I think, though he had practiced passive resistance in South Africa very effectively. He had worked with Muslims. Then he has worked in India with different groups, Champaran, Khera, Ahmedabad. So he is experimenting. So non-cooperation is at the national level, the first movement where he's talked about Satyagraha but the concept of civil disobedience, which means the defiance of laws, the defiance of colonial laws in a big way, that is the salt tax, that had not yet come in. It's more proactive compared to non-cooperation.  You start your national schools where the students are going to, the Gujarat Vidya Peeth, the Jamia Milia, Islamia. All that came up. So it is more of fashioning, I would say, an alternative. There is Swadeshi, there is boycott and burning of foreign clothes. So again Khadi comes in in that way. So I think the elements of what were later in the next two years, he was to call his constructive work program. Non-cooperation, I think, prepares the ground for that. That Hindu-Muslim unity comes in here with Khilafat. Khadi comes in and then later on he is going to add untouchability, etc. So it is more, as I said, to do with vacating or coming out of certain arenas and creating your own arenas and looking for that. Whereas civil disobedience, there is a clear element, as I said, of defiance, of violating law, going and breaking the law. And I think by that time, the idea of that, and yet it is civil, that is, yet it is within the parameters of legality. That was the brilliance. Not violent. That was the brilliance. Not, you know, that you remained within legality and within the... You know, this passive resistance, what effect did it have on the British? Well, I think if you see it from the point of view of the British themselves, the colonial officials have themselves written about how, when, certainly in the time of Dandi March and all what they had to face... Dandi March completely.  Broomfield, for example, Judge Broomfield, where Gandhi goes to the court in Champaran. I think non-cooperation is very much a continuation of that particular political strategy that there is, where the British, where Gandhi is experimenting with how to push the boundaries, how to expand the parameters... And how to draw people in. ...and to draw people in. Right. Into that. And that is his genius. Look what he does with Rowlett. Eventually they have to give it up. They have to give it up. And non-cooperation too. I mean, you know, the genius, I feel, of withdrawing the movement at a particular point where it goes beyond the bounds of violence. That's something which we need to understand. Yeah, sure. Yeah. We are talking about the brilliance of Gandhi and that it actually, without actually doing anything, it forced the British government, you know, the colonialists to take a step backward. Women, for example, if I could add. Again, the women come in during the non-cooperation movement for the first time. And there again, it's the... So the issue movement, they had completely... Not so much. And it was also not at a national level. This is at a national level, huge level. Now, what does he do? He tells them, you go and pick it to the liquor shops. Right. So that because the men, when they will come there, they will not be able to push aside the women. And the women will be standing there and saying, that go back to your homes. Don't spend this money over here. We are not going to allow you to go into the liquor shops. So creating again spaces where each class, each gender has, is given something to do, which is particularly suitable for that particular group. Students are told come out of the colleges. Lawyers are told come out of the courts. Similarly, you know, law makers are told come out of the legislatures. So there is a clear, yes. And also patwaris and so many other people. Just did not participate in any competition. Yes, they resigned. They resigned. This is the first time it happens. And then later on, of course, we know it becomes there.  Absolutely a power vacuum. And this is something which therefore, as I said, something for every group. And the British did not know what to do. They were not prepared for something like this. Yes, absolutely. Moving on to what you said, the withdrawal. There cannot be a discussion on the non-corporation room without mentioning the Chaurichara incident and Gandhi's decision subsequent to the killing of 22 policemen. That the movement is withdrawn. Possibly one of the most controversial and contentious. Even now historians, I know, continue to debate whether he should have, whether he should not have. If it had continued, would independence have been several years before 1947, et cetera, et cetera. As a historian and as a person who studied Gandhi and has looked at in totality, you know, how would you look at the decision to withdraw the movement at that stage? Thank you for this question. I think it took great courage. Immense. Immense courage to call off the movement. It would have been so much easier. Sorry, it would have possibly enhanced his moral stature globally. Calling it off. To call it off. It did. And yet, with the carders who had come out, don't forget Gandhi had promised Swaraj in one year. He had said, if you do all this, we will have Swaraj in one year. So people came out with a lot of hope, a lot of conviction, making these sacrifices. It was not easy to give up everything. And then this happens. And what does he do? This is a big dilemma before him. On the one hand, as I said, committed activists who will be very disillusioned if he withdraws the movement. On the other hand, he's not just his personal conviction in ahimsa, in nonviolence, but an understanding that a mass movement in order to be effective in the long run must necessarily be nonviolent. That understanding of the necessity of nonviolence in a mass movement to have that effect. This was something which was very much a dilemma before him. And I think he goes by his conviction, by his ideological conviction, that no, what has happened today, and also you must remember, this goes along with working within the parameters of legality.  This was not a fight between, say, two people, two groups clashed somewhere. It's not an individual clash. It's not an individual clash. It's a very clear targeting of a police station. And Gandhi ji had stressed one thing. We are against the system, imperial system, the colonial system. We are not against individuals. So these poor petty policemen working for the colonial state, they are not our enemies. They are not our targets. This was another point he was making. But on the other side, it was a big price. He paid, Jawaharlal Nehru, so close to him, wrote on his autobiography that Gandhi ji, he was felt so disillusioned when he heard about the calling off of this movement. And it took him a long time to accept Gandhi ji's leadership again.  So again, you know, he very reluctantly accepts it. But there must have been so many young people, idealistic youth like Nehru, who must have felt totally disillusioned. So Chetan, last question before we actually wind up the discussion, we are running out of time. 100 years down the line, how do you think that non-cooperation movement, Khilafat movement were, what lessons does it have for contemporary India? And how would you like the anniversary of these two movements or this symbiotic relationship between these two movements to be celebrated and observed? Well, the anniversary must be celebrated and it should be done, I think, by highlighting the Hindu-Muslim unity which was there in this movement. We also should be highlighting the fact that how we were able to fashion this whole movement at that time, the early stages of it, our first mass movement, first national mass movement. First mass movement can always, we can continue to have mass movements all the time. Yes, and I think that to recognize that in any situation, even of imperial domination of foreign masters, every individual can and must recognize they have the courage to protest and to make their voice known. Thank you, Sucheta, it's always a great pleasure talking to you. Thank you so much. Telling the ruler or government that your way is not correct is not a crime. People need not be told all the time that they do not know what is good for them and what is not good for them. Gandhi discarded his dhoti and kurta for a langot in the course of the non-cooperation Khilafat movement. He came to be called a half-naked fakir thereafter. He had conviction deep within himself. I will leave you today with his words to Vice Roy Chemsford. Non-cooperation was the only dignified and constitutional form of such direct action for it is the right recognized from times immemorial of the subject to refuse to assist a ruler who misrules. Think about the meaning of these words. Goodbye.


Connecting electronics to mobile phones and to the cloud are real customer expectations today, but many companies are missing opportunities because these IoT projects require mastering many very different technologies, technologies for wireless communication, security, networking and data logging for example. Thanks to our collaboration with ST Marker Electronics via the ST Partner Program, IOTIs can now offer these companies a no-code connectivity solution. That's a solution that reduces their engineering effort by a factor of at least 10 and this solution is equally adapted to makers who are doing their first innovation proofs of concepts, to companies who are retrofitting industrial infrastructure and designers who are creating new connected appliances. Appliances for example like this NFC equipped radiator from Luchte, which now uses the ST25 DV dynamic NFC tags from ST Marker Electronics. In this case Luchte was looking for a solution to a very specific problem because fewer than 20% of appliance owners use this LCD that's provided on their product to program these products in spite of the fact that programming their radiators can actually reduce their household energy consumption by up to 15%. So Luchte shows NFC to provide an intuitive three-step method to configure these products with an app. In the first step the user just first taps the mobile phone to the appliance in order to collect the current configuration of that product. Then they change that the settings comfortably in this app. It's so obvious that the user doesn't even require user manual in order to do this and then when they're satisfied they simply tap again to transfer the settings back to the mobile appliance. Compared to the LCD this approach is much more cost-effective for the manufacturer and is much more efficient and comfortable for the user. And thanks to our tap and link modules which support many wireless protocols such as NFC, Wi-Fi and Lora, designers are able to field new connected designs in record time because with tap and link designers benefit from our embedded duetware which pre-implements all of the features that they require in a connected device. They also benefit from our drag-and-drop configuration environment and automatic app generator for both Android and iOS. This makes creating connected designs as easy as connecting two wires and configuring the module. Today tap and link is available worldwide from our regional distributors and from Digi-Key and Mauser catalogs. And if you would like to have a personalized demonstration I invite you to contact my colleague Eduardo Treos at contact at iotis.com we would love to help you create your next connected design.


What's up you guys welcome back to another one if you are new to the channel I am Goldpony and today we are in the newly refreshed 2020 Subaru Legacy courtesy of Apple Subaru in York PA once again I am excited for this one brand new tech for 2020 definitely looking more like a Tesla style display on the inside so let's go ahead and jump right into this one and as always let's start with pricing and so there will be several different trim levels for the 2020 legacy first one being the base trim starting at $22,745 premium starting at $24,995 sport which actually is the one we are in today this one is going to start at $26,945 limited starting at $29,745 limited XT starting at $34,195 and lastly the touring XT for $35,895 and so as far as the power plant goes there is actually two different setups for the 2020 legacy as you can imagine with the XT trim levels that is going to be the more powerful engine setup but not the one we have today powering the non XT trim levels will be a 2.5 liter horizontally opposed Subaru boxer engine putting out 182 horsepower at 5,800 rpm 176 pound feet of torque available at 4,400 rpm power is going to be sent to all four wheels of course through Subaru's legendary symmetrical all wheel drive system that power is sent to the ground through a CVT with paddle shifters actually what you know we will be testing out a little bit here but all in all MPG numbers are going to come in at 27 the city 35 on the highway taking 87 octane or regular unleaded fuel helping save a little bit there so before we do that paddle shifter test let me touch on the other engine setup for the XT trim levels that is going to be a 2.4 liter turbocharged and intercooled horizontally opposed to a Subaru boxer engine once again 260 horsepower available at 5,600 rpm 277 pound feet of torque available from the power band of 2,04800 rpm again sent to all four wheels through a CVT on this one giving you MPG numbers coming in at 24 in the city 32 on the highway but once again taking regular unleaded fuel sometimes with the upgraded engine you have to jump up to premium but not with the legacy so that is pretty cool but either way you guys know what we have to do next let me put the shifter all the way to the back and to the left that is going to give me full manual shift mode here with the CVT so it's kind of like yeah we'll see but let's go ahead and test out the paddle shifters and see how quickly they react for us here I don't know what to say about it is a CVT so technically you don't have any gears to shift through but they do kind of react quickly and I suppose it would be useful for some engine braking perhaps in the snow that is kind of what subrues are built for for powering through the snow and those kind of climates but so I would imagine most people probably are not going to use those paddle shifters anyways but another thing I wanted to point out we are stopped at a red light right now the engine did shut off so we'll do that for you helping you save a little bit of MPGs there so that's kind of nice but let's go ahead and try a regular acceleration without the paddle shifters and again we do not have the turbo charge engine setup today but let's go ahead and see how quickly we can get this new 2020 Subaru legacy here up to speed here we go actually not too bad I'm coming off of driving some subcompact so that might have a little bit to do with it but really definitely no issues with merging on to the highway kind of kind of surprised me there with that acceleration and you can imagine the turbo charge engine setup is going to be quite a bit faster but still this naturally aspirated boxer engine here is really not all that bad quite impressed there and so then to go along with that acceleration braking is equally important and so up front you will find 12.4 inch ventilated front discs in the back 11.8 inch rear discs and then my short test drive today most definitely no issues with coming to a stop so that is definitely on point touching on suspension and handling the 2020 legacy actually moves to Subaru's global platform for 2020 therefore it is going to be sharing that same platform with other Subaru's like the Outback like the Ascent and the Forester which not only helps shave a little bit of cost when it comes to producing the legacy helping keeping the price down for this particular vehicle which is always nice but that new platform compared to the old legacy is actually quieter and safer so that is definitely a plus as well but that platform is also going to use 13 percent more high strength steel hence the safer part of what I was just mentioning there in addition to that up front you're going to get a McPherson strut front suspension with the stabilizer bar in the back a double wishbone type rear suspension again with the stabilizer bar when it comes to the ride quality definitely on point with the legacy absolutely no issues that I think I actually said the exact same thing when I just recently test drove the Outback the ride quality is actually very surprising almost luxury like again I haven't read or watched any reviews on this car quite yet because I always like to give my first impressions but essentially what I'm getting at is the ride quality is most definitely on point as far as the steering feel goes it is pretty much as expected so no issues there it's pretty on par for the course cabin noise I guess it's a little bit on the louder side but again it's pretty much as expected for this price point comparatively speaking to the other vehicles in its class so again no issues there and touching on visibility I could see absolutely great out the back window there definitely no issues when it comes to visibility and side mirrors are pretty cool too there's actually a small little Subaru logo in the side mirrors there and I'll get a little bit more into that in a second here so let's go ahead and jump right into the exterior of this new slightly refreshed 2020 Subaru legacy all right you guys here it is the 2020 Subaru legacy as I have mentioned it has been refreshed for 2020 up front you're going to find led headlights actually for every single trim level even the bottom trim level even the base that is amazing well done Subaru for that steering responsive headlights are actually going to come on the limited trim level and up and you are going to find led fog lights for the sport trim level and up that is just below there that's what you're looking at right now overall I love the black accents on the sport trim level they look very at home on this car especially in this red exterior that we have here black housings around the headlights as well all in all the front end ties together very well definitely looks good in my opinion the black accents actually continue around to the side take a look at these side mirrors black finishes are going to come with the base trim level and the sport and the sport black finish is actually a crystal black finish in case you were curious and another thing just like the outback I recently reviewed these chrome windows surrounds I love how they kind of tie in with the side mirrors they kind of just continue out like the side mirrors are sitting on a shard of chrome or something so I absolutely love that design element and of course body colored side mirrors will come standard for all other trim levels but the touring because that touring trim level or touring xt I should say is going to give you a satin chrome finish so that is pretty cool there power adjustable side mirrors will come standard with integrated turret signals on the premium trim level and up in case you were curious but let's now zoom out a little bit I want to show you guys the wheels here 17 by 7 inch steel wheels with covers will come with the base trim level 17 by 7.5 inch aluminum alloys with the premium then you're going to have 18 by 7.5 inch aluminum alloys for all other trim levels design will differ slightly for instance you see these black five spoke wheels coming with the sport trim level again just to continue with the black accents essentially but let's go ahead and make our way to the back you guys are going to see that shark fin antenna up top there also like these black accents on the tail lights got to love that to tie it all together this rear spoiler back here this is the first thing wanted to mention this is the only trim level where you are going to find a rear spoiler that is the sport trim level that we have today so if you want to one go with the sport that's how you're going to get it but refresh tail lights are going to come with the 2020 legacy you guys can see that there also zooming out a little bit a refreshed rear bumper as well and there's going to be some black extra black finishes I should say near the bottom for the sport trim level as far as the exhaust setup goes single exhaust outlet for the non XT trim levels dual exhaust outlets for the XT trims and in case you were curious it is actually under there it is tucked away on the driver's side back there so you guys know what we have to do next as always here is that exhaust clip all right so since we are now around back as far as opening that rear trunk there actually is a button on the key fob so if you like simply press that there also is a rubberized bottom back there as well so the alternative is you could simply just press that but either way once opened up cargo capacity is going to come in at 15.1 cubic feet did want to also point out there are actually some grocery hooks in that cargo area some cargo lighting as well as some in-floor storage and it's kind of compartmentalized as well so there's some tray areas within that in-floor storage I thought that was pretty cool but either way if you didn't need some extra space there is a 60-40 split meaning those rear seats do fold down for quite a bit of extra space if you needed it one of the things I loved about when these rear seats folded down is the back of those rear seats there is a rubberized finish to them so if you had something a little messier like maybe a dog and he didn't want their nails scratching up the back of the seats or maybe you're putting some wheels and tires back there like I often do and he didn't want that road debris scuffing up against your seats loved that the back of those seats are rubberized so that is a very nice touch super well done thinking of that anyways make your way to the rear leg room that's going to come in at 39.5 inches which is actually a good bit for reference I made even six feet tall this is how much space I had back there did want to also mention for those rear passengers they are going to find a rear center armrest with cup holders there's going to be rear air vents back there to keep them comfortable heated rear seats are actually going to come with the limited trim level and up if you wanted to go that route premium trim level and up is going to give you dual USB rear charging ports so helping those rear passengers stay connected that's definitely nice and as far as comfort goes I was just fine back there no issues there now let's make our way to the front seats there is a six way manually adjustable driver seat with the base trim level 10-way power adjustable driver seat with the premium trim level and up and you will find driver and passenger power adjustable seats if you want with the limited trim level and up and overall as far as the finishes go you're going to get a cloth finish if you go with the base premium or sport trim levels and leather finishes if you go with the limited trim level and up heated front seats are going to come with the premium trim level and up and ventilated front seats are going to come with the touring XT so quite a bit of different seat options depended upon the trim level that you go with there but let's go ahead and take a look at the steering wheel it is tilt and telescoping will come leather wrapped for the premium trim level and up and actually heated if you want with the XT trim levels and that is actually available on the non XT limited as well love heated steering wheels especially in Subaru's because Subaru's are known for going off-roading as well as in the snow particularly so heated steering wheel is definitely a plus especially here in Pennsylvania it's 40 some degrees this morning it's crazy but either way let's get to the startup here let me show you guys the key everything is actually all located on one side of the key you have lock unlock and again that button to pop the hatch and by the way the unlock button is the Subaru logo located in the middle of the key there in case you were curious but either way push button start is going to come on the sport trim level and up hallelujah that is what we have today and it's going to be optional on the premium actually so all I am going to do is simply put my foot on the brake and press the engine start button located just by the driver's right knee there and so then once started up tachometer is on your left speedometers on your right those gauges will do a full sweep I'm sure you guys notice that and there is a digital display front and center and there's a couple different things you can scroll through up there including your radio stations there's actually a digital speedometer up there as well of course your trip a trip b what gear you're in it's going to tell you what gear you're in if you're driving on the manual mode with the paddle shifters as well up there but overall a pretty decent gauge setup it would be cool if they offered a digital setup up there in the future but either way it is pretty nice but when it comes to overall interior quality if you're looking for a power moon roof that is going to come standard on the xt trim levels and is actually optional on every single other trim level but the base so even if you wanted with the premium you can get a power moon roof if you wanted it dual zone climate control is going to come with the premium trim level and up but I did want to mention looking around I counted eight cup holders in the 2020 legacy so if you're a thirsty family you're definitely set with the legacy that is pretty cool homelink controls are going to come with the sport trim level and up I noticed that just underneath the rear view mirror that is up to three different garage doors so that's pretty cool as well also like just above the passenger side glove box there there's a nice little cubby area there with a rubberized bottom I always like the rubberized bottoms with cubby areas so that if you go off-road or on a bumpy gravel road or something like that whatever you put there is not going to slide around as much so that's definitely a plus a lot of aluminum trim around the infotainment screen I'm going to get to that in a second of course also on the doors around the air vents and there's actually a lot of soft touch or leather material including above the glove box a ton of it on the doors well done Subaru for that and also plenty of red stitching found above the glove box as well as on the seat so and there's actually a lot of soft touch leather material around the shifter once you get beyond that piano black finish directly around the shifter at least did what I also mentioned an electronic parking brake is going to come standard there's two USB charging ports in front of the shifter as well as an auxiliary port you got some more cubby space directly behind that two cup holders behind the shifter and of course there is a dual compartment center armrest so if you lift up on the left side you're going to find a little tray area and if you lift up on the right side you're going to find that deeper cubby area just below that center armrest so I like that too and also on the ceiling there is a sunglass holder found up there too so overall interior quality is quite nice don't want to forget about the compass found in the rear view mirror as well but now let's make our way to the best part let's face it the tech display has been upgraded for most Subaru's for 2020 and it looks absolutely amazing so when it comes to that tech display dual seven inch color touchscreen displays will come with the base trim level however that base trim level that is the only setup that still has that old style tech display and I say old style it's still actually really good but not as good as the 11.6 inch color touchscreen display that we have today that is actually going to come standard on the premium trim level and up but either way you're going to get bluetooth and audio streaming android auto and apple car play meaning if you have a smartphone simply hook it up to the legacy you have free navigation through that smartphone as well as the ability to like and dislike your pindore songs there's a couple other apps you can check out as well factory navigation system is standard on the xt trim levels is optional on all other trim levels but the base even the premium that's pretty cool and overall this is kind of a tesla style vertical tech display I absolutely love that it is kind of like a tablet or smartphone so if it looks slightly overwhelming at first you do get used to it quite quickly and you'll get used to it even quicker if you've already played around with the tablet or smartphone which I'm sure all of you guys watching this video have but anyways you can also check out your radio settings up there and by the way when it comes to the sound system on the legacy four speakers with the base six speakers with the premium and sport trim levels so therefore that's what we have today limited trim level however is going to give you a 12 speaker harmon card and sound system with 576 watts so you guys know what we have to do next we do again have the six speaker sound system today so let's turn on serious xm here see what we got playing this morning and let's test out the clarity this one gotta be honest the clarity was on point I don't know if it's the position of the speakers in the legacy or what but the clarity sounds absolutely amazing for six speakers at least you know the harmon card is going to sound better but for six speakers clarity is on point basis all right it's kind of as expected for a six speaker sound system but the clarity is kind of impressive I gotta be honest but last thing I wanted to mention on that tech display though is when you do put the legacy in reverse you will find a review camera up on that tech display for every single trim level letting you know who or what is behind you which is always is going to lead us into safety and so to start there are front side and side curtain airbags also a driver's knee airbag up front as well in the back of course you're going to have latch aka lower anchors and tethers for children for the rear car seats also rear child door locks back there tire pressure monitoring system will come standard high beam assist also standard for every single trim level but perhaps the best part about the safety at least is something called subaru eyesight that is going to give you standard adaptive cruise control this is by the way standard on every single trim level you have adaptive cruise control pre-collision breaking lane departure in sway warning and lane keep assist and then if you went with a limited trim level and up in addition to that you are going to get blind spot monitor with rear cross traffic alert and reverse automatic braking it's so but anyways that is about it for this one you guys thank you so much for watching feel free to follow me on social media at the bottom of the screen there if you like be sure to hit the subscribe and the bell notification button if you're in a new car reviews that is what we do here on this channel after all do appreciate you guys watching more than you know and i will see you guys in the next video stay gold


QuickBooks Online 2024. Check and expense form. Get ready, because we don't just do data input. We get totally into it. With intuits. QuickBooks Online. 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.  Like our Accounting Rocks product line. If you're not crunching cords using Excel, you're doing it wrong. A must-have product, because the fact as everyone knows of accounting being one of the highest forms of artistic expression means accountants have a requirement, the obligation, a duty to share the tools necessary to properly channel the creative muse. And the muse, she rarely speaks more clearly than through the beautiful symmetry of spreadsheets. So get the shirt, because the creative muse, she could use a new pair of shoes. 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 in the URL. Intuit being the owner of QuickBooks, selecting the United States version of the software and verifying that we're not a robot. Let's duplicate some tabs to put our financial statement reports in like we do every time. Right-click in the tab up top to duplicate it. Right-click in the tab up top again as it is thinking to duplicate it again as that tab is thinking. Back to the middle tab, going down to the reports on the left, opening up one of the favorites, the balance sheet. Tabbing to the right, let's close up the hamburger first and then tab to the right.  And then going back to the first tab, that's the process we do every time. The first tab is where we're going to do the data input, and then we check what happens to the end result. The thing we're building, the financial statements, balance sheet income statement and related reports on the right. If I select the dropdown, you will recall that we've been looking at the vendor cycle, vendors being the people that we are paying when we're thinking about QuickBooks terms, meaning at the end of the vendor cycle, we would expect money to be going out for the purchase of goods and services. We note that we could be on an accrual or cash-based system. It depends on what kind of circumstances our business is in. The easiest system would be one where we're on a cash-based system and even easier than a cash-based system in that we make electronic transfers, possibly allowing us to skip the initial process of entering the transaction and instead be dependent on the bank to record the transaction and for us to then pick it up with the bank feeds. That would be the expense form would typically be used in that case. A cash-based system where we write checks is going to be a step in more complexity because then we have to track the outstanding checks and therefore can't wait till they clear the bank to record the checks generally. On an accrual-based system, we would enter a bill which increases the accounts payable as we saw in prior presentations and then we would pay the bill with a pay bill form which is in essence a check or expense form but one specific to decrease in the accounts payable. If we bought inventory, we would have the purchase order possibly involved. So now we're going to go back up to the cash-based system and look at these two forms. The expense form and the check form. The expense form and the check form will be very similar in nature. The layout will look pretty much the same except for the check form. We'll have a check number part of it so that we can enter the check number. Now in practice, these forms are usually going to be used for different reasons because if you're entering an expense form, you're probably utilizing the bank feeds, which many businesses, especially small businesses, this is where you can really often save times on the bank feeds. So even if you have to deal with like accounts receivable on the customer side so you have to invoice people and whatnot. Oftentimes on the paying side, on the vendor side, we're able to set up the bank feeds and pay through either expense forms or credit card type forms, both of which can be connected with the bank feeds and as we pull the information in from Bank Feed Limbo, we can record the transaction at that point in time. So by doing that, we're actually not doing the full service bookkeeping system because usually if I bought something with an electronic transfer, let's say we bought something from an online warehouse and we paid for it with an electronic transfer, I should record that when I make the payment and then when it clears the bank, I could use the bank feeds or simply a bank reconciliation to verify the bank side to my side so that we have the double check. That's what a reconciliation and the bank feeds were originally kind of designed to do. But because we're becoming so much more confident in the bank feeds and because there's not a long time between when we actually make the purchase and the transaction takes place, possibly a very, very little amount of time, we can verify the transaction pretty easily that it went through. We don't have that timing difference that we do with checks and therefore we often could skip that first bit of recording the transaction when we actually make it and instead wait till it clears the bank and then record the transaction once it clears the bank. If we have a check form, we cannot do that generally because when we have a check form, we have to actually track the outstanding check because there's going to be a substantial time difference between when we write the check and when the check clears. So those are going to be the two major forms. Also note that if we're entering a lot of expense forms, possibly if we're entering a lot of detail like from a bank statement or something like that, if we're manually inputting it, we might go to say a check register to enter it a little bit faster instead of going to the expense forms here and sometimes other kind of inputs will be used such as the bank feeds which is kind of a truncated or smaller expense form. So whenever we use like a register or when we use the bank feeds, it doesn't look the same as an expense form but it'll still create an expense form when we drill down on it on the financial statements. All right, let's look at one for crying out loud. Could you get to one here? All right, let's make up another vendor. This is going to be vendor. I'm just going to make up a vendor. We're paying for something, vendor 11. I'm going to add the vendor. It's going to be coming out of the checking account. Now we could make an expense form coming out of the checking account, the savings account, credit card account because basically if it was coming out of the credit card account, it's a little bit difficult to wrap your mind around at first, you know, when you're looking at an expense form comes out. But when it's a credit card, all that means is that instead of your asset going down, you have a liability going up, right? So an expense form means that the checking account is going to go down and or it can mean that the liability account is going to go up and the other side is going to go to some kind of expense typically. All right, so then we have the let's make this happen in 2024. So I'm going to I'm going to bring it up to 1624 and then the payment method. We have American Express cash check and we could add different kinds of payment methods. Notice this is an internal form. This isn't necessarily required for the data input. If you didn't put anything in here, that would be you'd still be okay. So I might put in here I might add one like electronic transfer. So if I added that, it's a boom, there's that. And if you had a reference number, we have the reference number. If we were doing tags, we have the tags here. We might talk about that tags later. And then the category, let's just make up in a category.  It's going to make up a category which is an account. So I'm going to add an account. Usually the other side's going to go to some kind of expense because usually when money is going out of the business, it's because we're purchasing some kind of expense. I'm just going to make it other expense for now to be very generic expense number one. And so there it is and the amount let's say is 110. So we have similar billable items, tax and customers as we saw with the bill form, noting that this is for usually like a job cost type of system where you're making a payment, you're buying something possibly supplies or something like that that you're going to use on a job and then you want to invoice a client for it. Well then you can click this off that it would be billable. And when you pick up the client on an invoice, it will then show that on the invoice. So we could add multiple categories down below. We can add more lines if we needed to add more lines of things that were the accounts that we're going to be putting in place. Now note that this is going to be used if we're applying it directly to an account as we're doing here. If we bought something like inventory and we were tracking the inventory on a in QuickBooks on a perpetual system, then like with the bill forms, we would use an item form down here and we'd have to create an item so that QuickBooks can have that added step of tracking the inventory item. We have the memo, we have attachments. So if you wanted to attach say a receipt or something like that, we have the attachment capacity. You can cancel, clear, you can make it reoccurring if this is going to be a repeat thing to save a little bit of time on the data input. Save, we could save and close or save and new. Let's go ahead and if I look at this in a journal entry format, it's a straightforward journal entry, right? This is going to be an expense form and what's going to happen is going to be the expense is going to happen down here for 110 and then cash is going to go down. This is debits and credits. Credits are negative just to see the journal entry straightforward here. So we've got the 110 decreases net income. That's just these three numbers are here and then cash is going to go down. Cash had nothing in it before so cash is now negative 110 and then the expenses on the other side creating a loss in this case because we haven't recorded any income here. So that would be the journal entry. Let's check it out. Let's go ahead and save it and close it and check it out. Going to the tab to the right and let's go to the next year up 010124 tab 123124 tab. Run it to refresh it and then we're going to go into that checking account by clicking on it and okay. And so what happened K pass. Oh, let me see. So I recheck the date 1124 to 123124 run the report and then I'm going to go back into the checking again. And we're going to see there it is. There's our expense form. So we're going to check if I check on that or click on that. It takes me to the expense form. There it is closing that out. The other side or let's go back to the report and look at the other side on the income statement changing the dates from 010124 tab 123124 tab running that one. There's our expense form on this side bringing the net income to negative for this time period. All right, let's go back to the first tab. And then note that if you were entering a lot of checks into the system for whatever reason, say you're trying to construct the financial statements for multiple months or something from bank statements or something like that, then you might not go into the expense form. It might be easier to go into the register type of format. So to do that, one way you can get there is you can go to the bank. I'm sorry, the transactions down here. Actually, you could go into that one too because that was the memorized area. But I'm going to go down here. This is where it is always at the transactions. And then you have the chart of accounts on the right hand side. So within the chart of accounts, we can go down here and you can see that all of the balance sheet accounts have this view register except for the main equity account. And then the income statement accounts do not. So the register allows you to kind of have a quicker data input for some of these form types. So let me show you if we go into the view register. Now we're looking at this from the standpoint of the checking account. And I point that out here because this one is pretty straightforward because a lot of people have seen the old checkbook registers where they're used to using like a register format. Oftentimes, but the same format could be used with other balance sheet accounts as well. And it could be useful if you only have like two accounts affected, then instead of entering like a journal entry, it sometimes is easier to see this way because you can just think of it as increases and decreases to the particular account that you are in. So in this case, we have payments and deposits. But if I was in another account like a fixed asset account, it might just say increase or decrease. What is it? Increase or decreasing the account that you're in. And that means the other side of the transaction is going to go to whatever other account that you're going to put it to. Okay. So if I go up top here, we've got the dropdown and I have a check form. I've got the deposit, the sales receipt, the receipt payment. Obviously, the checking account has all these different kind of forms because the checking account is the lifeblood of the company. It runs through all of the different areas. If I use an expense form, then let's put this in here as of 011524 and I'm not going to put any reference number. Let's say this is vendor, vendor 12 tab. I'm just going to add it as we go. And let's say this one was for 200. And the other side of the account, I'm going to say is going to expense, expense number two. I'm just going to add it just to have a different expense account. We're going to add the expense. We're going to call it other business expense, expense number two. So you can see that this is a much shorter data input screen than the whole expense form, but it's doing the same thing. It's going to be decreasing the checking account. And the other side is going to be going to where we told it to go, the expense form. If I drill back down on it after we record it, it's not going to go to this register. However, it's going to go to the full expense form. So let's check it out. If I save it and I could see it here.  And then if I want to edit it, then it takes me into the actual expense form, right? Now, if I close that back out, let's go to the balance sheet and check it out this way. And let's run it to refresh it. And then I'm going to go into the expense or the checking account. And let's go into the expense form. There it is. I had to refresh the screen again. But there it is. There's the 200 and you can drill back on it from here. When I drill back down on it, it's going to give me the expense form. It's not going to take me to the register. So what we want to be doing is we want to be starting to memorize what forms do what. What are the journal entries behind each of the forms that we do. And even if I enter something in a shortcut kind of data input method like the register or like the bank feeds, I want to imagine the forms that will be in place because when I drill back down from the end result, when I do the auditing back and I'm drilling back down, I'm going to get to the actual form, not the data input screen possibly that I put it in there with like the register. So here it is on the income statement as well. So if I go back to this first tab, let's add another one. I'm going to hit the plus button and let's do another expense form. And this time we're going to say this is going to be vendor 13 lucky number 13. And we're going to say this is coming out of the checking account. Let's make this on the 17th and no tags. And this time, note that we usually went to an expense account, but it doesn't always have to go to an expense account. Sometimes you might be purchasing say fixed asset, right? So I might be saying, okay, this is going to be fixed asset. This is a generic account. And just to show you the setup and the difference instead of an expense account, it would be a fixed asset account. And I'm just going to call it fixed asset, fixed asset furniture or something. And so save it. And then the amount is usually going to be larger. So when you have a large dollar amount, then again, you might have a fixed asset that's going to be going to an asset account, not a expense account. So if I was to look at the difference in the journal entry, what's going to happen here? Well, instead of this expense account, it's going to go into a fixed asset account. So instead of this being hit, it's going here. And we can see there's no impact on net income from this transaction. You've got cash going down, another asset going up. You will impact the financial statements when you depreciate it in the form of depreciation. Okay, so let's check that out. So if I save and close that and I go to my balance sheet and I run it to refresh it. And let's go into the checking account again. And it didn't do it again. I have to refresh it again. Sometimes the refresh, I have to double refresh it. Double take, double check. Okay, what happened? Okay, I refreshed it again. And so there we can see it for crying out loud. Actually, I don't like to cry out loud. For sobbing silently sake. For sobbing silently sake. Okay, so there it is here. If I go back and I can see on the fixed assets, now it went into the balance sheet account instead of the income account. Okay, let's go back on over. And this time, let's pretend we're doing inventory. So if I say another expense form, and we're going to say this is going to be vendor number 14. And we'll say it's coming out of the checking account. And we'll say 1720, let's say, on the date. And this time, I'm not going to do a category. I'm going to make an inventory item. So let's imagine we're purchasing inventory, not with a bill this time, but with an expense form. So I'm just going to make an item, item number one tab. And we're going to set up the inventory for it. And we'll talk more about items later, but I'll just know SKU category quantity on hand zero. We're purchasing the first quantity. I'll say as at the beginning point, I'm not going to put a reorder point inventory is what will be impacted when we purchase it as will be impacted here, because we are purchasing with the expense form. The sales account, we're going to say we sell it for, let's say, 230. It's going to go to the income account when we sell it. We're not selling it here, though. We're buying it. This is going to be subject to tax. We'll leave that as calculated. The purchase side is going to be item number one. Let's say we purchase it for $200. We purchased it for 200, which we're doing now, and we sell it for 230. Going to the cost of goods sold, the cost of goods sold is not impacted until we sell it. What's going to happen now is it's going to increase the inventory. So let's save it and close it. There we have it. Now, this time, if I look at the journal entry, what's going to happen instead of going to fixed assets, it's going to go to inventory. I changed the dollar amount to 210. And so instead of going to fixed assets, it's still going to an asset account of inventory. We're also going to need a sub ledger to track the inventory if we're tracking it within QuickBooks on a perpetual system. So let's save and close that one. And then go back to the balance sheet and you better do it right this time.   Make sure you record it this time. All right. So then we're going to go in there and there it is. So you just have to reason with it with QuickBooks. So there it is to 200. And if I go back, the other side is going into inventory. So there it is in inventory. And there it is on this side. Nothing happened to the income statement. When is the income statement impacted when we sell the inventory in the form of cost to good soul? That will be the expense. That will be expense. Let's tab to the right. Right click on that tab and duplicate it just to look at the sub ledger for inventory that we have created this time. Going to go down to the reports on the left-hand side. Let's go and just type in inventory valuation summary. So if we were tracking inventory, which we'll talk more about when we go through our practice problem, but then we can see the inventory is in place, the date needs to be increased to 123124, let's say, and then run it. So there's our item items on hand. Now we can see the total cost of inventory in our sub ledger broken out by the inventory items 79625 should match the balance sheet at 79625. Okay. So let's go back on over again and this time hit the dropdown and let's just imagine that we're going to use a credit card instead of an expense form. So let's say this is going to vendor number 15, tab, add a new one. This time instead of decreasing the checking account, we're going to increase the credit card account, the visa, let's say. So we're buying something with the visa, which also is something that you can do with the bank feeds and let's say the payment happens on the 23rd and let's go back to a category and let's just call it expense, expense, expense, number three, tab. I'm going to make a expense type of account and it's just going to be expense three and we'll just make it in other business. Okay. So now this is going to be the same thing except that instead of decreasing the checking account, we're going to increase the credit card account. So let's save it and close it. Go to the balance sheet, run it to refresh it. I'll double refresh it and so hopefully that works. Don't give me any trouble, man. Quick books and so I don't see it there. I don't see it there. Dang it. Oh, there it is. Did I not record a dollar amount in it? It would be helpful if you put a dollar amount in it. That would make it easier to see. Let's go into that expense form and put a dollar amount in it. Let's say it was for $300. Let's save it and close it and there it is. So there it is here and the other side would be going to the income statement over here and running it to refresh it. There it is. Let's go back on over again and let's just make one that's billable so that we can just see that process. Remember that the billable items to turn them on are in the settings. They're here, they're in the settings and then you can go into the expenses and then they've got the billable items turned on. So if I was in a job cost system, I might say, okay, I'm going to make an expense form and I'm going to say it was for vendor 16 tab. It's going to come out of the checking account and let's say it happened on the 26th and I purchased expense, let's just call it expense three again, but now I'm going to make it billable so I can make an invoice from it. Say it's taxable when I pull it over to the invoice. It's not going to apply a tax here. We're talking sales tax maybe for customer number one tab at it. So now if I save and close this, it'll record the same thing similar to what we've seen in the past, but now it's something that I can apply to the customer. So if I go down, for example, to the customer center and let's say I go down to the sales, I go into the customers and I find that customer one, I can see here if I scroll this to the left, I've got this billable charge. Scroll down a little bit and so we've got this billable charge so we can create an invoice from it directly here so I can open it up like this and it'll create the invoice and populate it with the item that we populated it with which once again I didn't put a dollar amount in which it was kind of annoying but there it is. You can also, if I was to create an invoice, do you want to leave without saving? Yes. If I was to create an invoice for customer number one, then it's going to have this item that I can pull in over here and I say yes, pull that in and we didn't charge him anything. Great. Okay, so we can close that out. That's the billable items which we'll talk more about in our practice problem. The way that you will often use expenses is with the bank feeds. So we'll talk about the bank feeds in the bank feed section but this is the most common form that would be used with the bank feeds. So you'd go to the transactions here and if I go to the bank transactions we can see then down below let's take like this rental income. I'm going to close up the hamburger. This rental, notice what we don't have here. We don't have the payee. We don't have the vendor in this case as this is received. That's weird. Let's go to the payment. This one which is paid. Now the person that we are paying might be in the memo but we often might have to still pull it in to the vendor from the memo. It would be in the memo possibly if it was an electronic transfer. So I'm going to say it's included there. Let's just say it's going to go to rent or lease, let's imagine and then we could memorize the transaction to make this more automated. So we'll talk more about this later but just I want to show here that this although it doesn't look exactly like the expense form because it's basically an electronic transfer like what we did in the check register it is basically an expense form and when we drill down from the financial statements on to this it will show basically an expense form. So this happened on let's say 12, 24, 23. So I'm going to say okay and let's go back into our balance sheet and let's bring this back to 2023, 2023, 2023, run it and then go into our checking account and then I'm going to scroll down here and we have, here it is if I click on it it doesn't take me back to the bank feed form but rather it once again takes me to the expense form. So when we use the bank feeds we want to be able to visualize the actual form that we're using even though we're doing a data input screen that doesn't look exactly like the actual form we're using because when we drill back down on the data it's going to take us to this type of form that we want to be able to envision.  So if I go to the tab to the left and I open up the hamburger again now if I go to a check form it's going to look very similar to the expense form. We open up a check form looks very much the same. Let's run through it. Vendor 17 Vendor 17 and adding it coming out of the checking account similar type of options here and it's coming out of the checking accounts and then it's not going to come out we don't have the credit card options of course because the check will have check numbers and then we're going to say that this let's say it happens on the 28th here's the check number. Now with the checks note that if you're writing checks you could do this a few different ways. One is you can get the you can buy the actual checks that are printable checks and then when you write the checks you're going to have to put the checks in the printer so that it can print from QuickBooks. Note that the checks cannot be printed on just blank paper because you still need that internal control of having the check numbers on the physical paper checks tying out to the check numbers that are being printed by QuickBooks. So you could print it as you go or you can say print later and then as you have the checks that need to be printed you can print them all at one time. So I'll click that on for now and just to show that but that check number is going to be one of the issues. Notice here it's showing the check number that we're on that should match. Now note also that you might just be manually writing checks and then entering this into QuickBooks. You still want to enter it into QuickBooks as you write the checks manually because you want to make sure that you're entering the checks when you write them not being dependent on the bank because you need to track the outstanding checks because there's going to be a substantial amount of time between when you write the check and when it clears. So if you're manually writing the check you can still data input it as you write the check and then put the proper check numbers in as you write them. It might be easier to do that by going into the register similar process. So I'm going to go over here and say this is going to be let's just call it expense expense category 3 again and let's put a dollar amount this time. Let's make it $400. We're not going to make it billable so it's going to record the same thing. It's going to record an expense decrease to the checking account but now we have the check number. Let's say we're going to print it later too so I'm going to save it and close it. By printing the checks I can go to the plus button up top and I can go down to the print checks. Now if it gives you a screen that says to format the checks you can go ahead and say skip the formatting of the checks and you'll see a screen like this and now if we have multiple checks that needed to be printed we can basically print them at one time here and so we have the sort we can do our sorting options all checks show regular checks show bill payments and then when we print them I'm going to check them off and then we would want to put the proper starting check number which I think was 73 that we can continue on from that point and if we were putting the checks in the printer we'd have to make sure that we put them into the printer starting at the same check number and then we can preview and print and so there we have it so I'm going to say ok print and so now we're processing the checks so then we could print it from here which is a pdf now file so if I go back on over I'm going to say ok boom did your checks print ok yes they're all printed correctly now if they didn't print correctly you're going to have to redo it of course you are processing them through the printer so some checks need reprinting starting with if they needed reprinting you'd have to start them over so you get the proper check numbers no keep all checks in the print checks list if they didn't print properly you could say keep them here so I can try it again later possibly I'm going to say they printed properly so they should have been processed now I'm going to close this back out go into my balance sheet run the balance sheet again and then if I go into let's run it again just for double check go into the checking account and we're going to say that now we have a check notice the check form and the expense form very similar but now you have a check number with the check form which is great for tracking however with the expense forms if they're electronic transfers you have the bank memos which are great for tracking and with the expense forms the dates that we entered and the date that they clear the bank will be much closer whereas the check form the date that we entered it today is going to be a lot longer before it actually clears at some future point okay let's go back to the first tab to track this information if I go to my expenses tab on the left hand side we can see and hear that on the expenses side we could track the expenses if we want to look at our expenses this way and we can search by our expenses this way we can also track by the bills I mean the checks so if I want to search my by checks this way we could do that obviously if we go into the vendors that we have set up we can then look for the vendors that we set up here and we can see the activity of the payments in here I mean this information is not as important often times with the checks and the expenses as they are with the bills because when we enter the bills we have to track this information so that we can pay the bills but obviously if we're looking something up to see if it was paid we could go into this area we can also go into the checking account drill down on the checking account as we have done we can use our filtering fields if we wanted to do it this way so for example if this was going back to 2023 then I can say okay there's checks in all these different kind of forms that are in my transaction types if I just want to see checks then I can use my filtering options so I can say filter and we want to filter by type which is quite common so I could select the drop down here and so I want transaction type and then you can choose checks equal to equals and then the transaction type let's say checks hold on a sec what did I pick here, transaction type there we go I got it here equal to a check so then you can see that it's going to filter it now by the checks that's another way that you can look at it sometimes it's useful to look at the register as well so if you had questions you might want to look at it from a register perspective and you could do that by going into the chart of accounts opening the tab on the left transactions chart of accounts on the right and then go into the register for the checking account looking at the register and then you can see your activity this way as well within the register sometimes that's a nice way to look at it


Every one Basel Chapman here Friday, this is December the 10th. This is the Tiger Financial News Network, 10am market update, does up 130 and 35,890, made in your recovery eye. This is a single leg eight from that load that was made at 34,022 on December the 1st, it's double check at December the 1st, right on the 200-peered moving average every single session since then has had a higher high bar. This is still a leg A, the Magdi is positive, the Stochastic is finally at 84% on balance volumes, kind of wishy-washy and this is the days young, we're half an hour into the session, but you have got an L that means the 9-peered moving average has at least attempted so far to cross positive, that's a good sign. It was very important that we had an up move today after the exact 0% change yesterday, I'll discuss that in my show when we get back because they had a resemblance of another period in 1987, 0% change, we'll talk about that. This is a very positive move so far, let's go to the S&P. So the S&P, the Dow was leading yesterday all day, the S&P was lagging, the NQ, the NDX-100 was much weaker and the semiconductors were weak today, the S&P is up 0.5, Dow is up 0.3, so it's got a little bit more strength but it is up 23 at 46.91 and this is going to be very important because by Tuesday you need to see trading in the 4700 and 4600 higher area to say that this isn't just a rebound, it's something more than that in the S&P. Look at the QQQ123, there we go, QQQ is trading up 2.20, 3.95, 0.92, this is very interesting, it is not leading the way up, it is really struggling, if you look at the SMHs, I'll do more of this in my show, the Tiger technicians are coming up in a few minutes' time, the SMHs are up 2.39 but it's a red candle so far, if you're looking at gold, look at this, gold had a bounce and now it's only up 4, it's kind of struggling and the TLT which is the bond, you'll see how it responds, it's up a little bit 82 cents and if you look at crude oil, crude oil was rallying earlier and it is holding up 23 cents, there's a lot to discuss when we get back, I suspect we've made a little bit of a short talk today, we'll be back in a minute.
