ACZ General Ledger, a very reliable double entry bookkeeping and accounting system, caters to small business needs. It LOADs and SAVEs without trouble. The prompts are the best I have seen. If you follow the understandable instructions in the detailed manual step by step, you’ll have no problems.
You enter journal entries at the end of each accounting period (usually monthly) and then the computer takes over. It generates ledger entry displays and a post closing trial balance for the beginning of the next period.
This system works well for a single proprietorship or a partnership containing up to 5 partners. In the latter case, the system accounts for each in accordance with whatever ratio of profit sharing or ownership stipulated during system set-up.
Ingeniously, each of six different modules LOAD seperately; none take more than a few minutes. A tape file module allows saving data from each module on tape.
Print-out options include entire ledger, income statement, balance sheet, and equity statement. Trial balances can be printed if you can program it in.
Once you use this package, you will never want to keep books manually again.
