Microsoft Office Accounting 2008 Professional Plus includes everything in
the Professional Edition and adds a one-year subscription to a payroll
calculation service. The clever aspect of the payroll option is that while data
is held on your PC all calculations are done anonymously online so tax tables
don't need to be stored on the local PC, thereby removing the need to update
them.
Office Accounting Professional 2008 is a complete accounting solution that
helps small businesses more efficiently and effectively manage their business
finances. Office Accounting Professional 2008 helps you save time on everyday
tasks, work the way you want, and organize all your financial information in one
place to get a complete view of your business, all with the familiar look and
feel of the Microsoft Office system.

levels.
