ACCOUNTS
"It is not generally realised that all published accounts are the result of
someone 'taking a view'; the only absolute is that every transaction is based on a physical
event." Anon
Accounts are only as good as their reporting systems and the care taken to
maintain their data integrity (complete, consistent and valid). Without such underlying data
integrity many accounting reports will be worse than useless - they will be misleading.
The most flexible accounting systems for SMEs are written using a database, for these the reporting
facilities are endless and client information needs can be fully and seamlessly empowered.
Then, complete customisation is possible, and third-party products
such as Business Objects may be used to interrogate and report on the underlying
details.
Where this is not so, there are almost always facilities for exporting data and these exported files may then
be reported on and analysed by using a database.
Or, do you just want help with routine bookkeeping and month-ends? Forget
those year-end or tax inspection fears, be on time every time!
