I am looking for a simple accounting softw. In order to make Journal Entries and creat the Balance Sheet and P&L. I have discarded Peachtree & Quickbooks because they have too many features, aimed mainly at people with no accounting knowledge.

I just want a software that will maintain the Accounts Ledger and v=create Balance Sheet, P&L and provide, of course, the CGS and Inventory (hopefully, supporting FIFO).

Any ideas?

Hello,

Yes, I am an accountant and have a degree in business Administration, both from Argentina. Accounting (double-entry) is the same around the world. If there was a double-entry software where at the end of the day I entered the Journal Entry and it gave me the Balance Sheet and P&L at any time, I would pay about $100 - 200, but I would not pay for Excel sheets, as I can continue doing them myself. A software would avoid re-entering reapeat data and provide some type of search capabilities.

Do you really think that an Integrated Accounting System that I have been working on since 1984 is only worth $200.
You pay peanuts and as a qualified accountant
You would love to have the full system.

So... does this mean every time you post that email contact when someone asks about accounting software, it's cause you want to sell yours?
