Just wondering what most Bitcoin based businesses/business owners use for their accounting software. Are there any programs out there that have Bitcoin as a currency option? Or do you use a regular accounting program (like Quickbooks) and record the value of your Bitcoin in your local currency?

(sorry if this is posted in the wrong area)

you can try using Google Docs to keep track of bitcoin now, before I was just using python to calculate desired information via restapi calls. i also wrote a currency monitor in c# for windows machines that dealt with holding various alt addresses/shell commands to launch miners.

on google docs you can just use: = GoogleFinance("CURRENCY:BTCUSD","bid")

that will populate a cell in google docs with the current coinbase bid value, you can then formulate other equations using this specific cell to determine profit/losses. then you just need to auto sum a few columns etc. I find this easier right now compared to updating applications and scripts due to moving api's.
