PROPOSAL FOR THE INSTALLATION OF ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE

Introduction
Accounting is often said to be the language of business; it is used in the business world to describe the transactions entered into by all kinds of organizations. It gives the organization a greater insight as to how the business is transacted and the method by which business decisions are taken. Perhaps, there are two basic questions that Directors and Owners of business will like to answer:
• Is the company making profit?
• Will the organization be able to meet its corporate social responsibilities without closing down as a result of lack/misappropriation of funds?
These two basic questions can only be answered by the accounting data of the organization.

Conventional accounting records keeping have always been since the beginning of time. This was done manually with the use of ledgers. But today with the advent of information technology, computers have taken over the task of data management. This is because with the use of a computer, you can store your data electronically which provides a synergy for multiple access from remote locations; create multiple backups which are often safe and secure.

Need for a computerized accounting system
Computer accounting is the computerization of accounting ledgers or the transfer of conventional accounting ledgers into the memory of computers so that computer can store financial data in safer, faster and secure way. Since the beginning of electronic accounting, many accounting packages have been developed which include but some of the following: - QuickBooks, Sage 50, formerly known as Peachtree, Quicken, M.Y.O.B, Simply Accounting and many more. It should be noted that these accounting packages have been designed to meet different financial needs. For example While QuickBooks and Peachtree are designed for the company that values time, efficiency and productivity, The Sage Pastel Evolution which is build on the Evolution framework, goes beyond accounting by providing a whole lot of add-ons solutions like HR, Payroll, Multi-warehousing and so forth.

Some Key Benefits of using an Accounting Software
 Solid Accounting Principles without knowing (GAAP)
 Improved Accuracy
 Enhance Compliance
 Improve Efficiency
 New Opportunities
 Increased Revenues
 Enhanced Collaboration
 Reduce Cost

Having reviewed some core benefits of automating an accounting software, it is our conviction that every organization be it a private enterprise, government agency or parastatal, an academic institution or an NGO that wants to be ICT compliant needs to have an accounting software for their data management and financial documentation.
