The home page lists all accounts, and can display net worth, hot stocks, budget progress and more. This page can easily be customized. The checkbook register is where it all began with Quicken, and that register is included with Quicken Deluxe 2000. For each account set up, the checkbook register is the main screen for entering deposits and payments. Data entry is made easy by the use of drop down lists and hot keys.
Every entry is assigned to a category, which is what makes Quicken so powerful.
All charts, graphs and reports are generated based on these categories. It continues to ship with a complete set of categories based on the type of account, but the user can add or delete categories to suit individual needs. Building on the strengths of earlier versions, QD 2000 makes it is very easy to view financial status in a matter of seconds, via a complete set of Reports and Graphs for financial analysis. The Own and Owe reports readily calculate or graph net worth or view account balances. The Spending reports shows all aspects of where your money comes from and is being spent.
