Produced by 0 very small business owner knows some of the programmers that created utility masterpieces such as Directory Opus, this all-in-one accountancy software has created something of a stir in the accountancy department at ICG simply because, on first impressions for the price, they've been impressed by the value for money on offer here.

The four books are purchases, sales, ledgers and jobs. Clicking on one of these takes you into their specific sub-directories. Sales and purchases are obviously there to keep track on all the selling and buying that goes on in a thriving company. and invoices are easily produced with a few keyboard entries. The Ledger is vital for detailing credits and debits, the Inventory holds all details of stock prices and quantities and, finally, the jobs icon gives you a breakdown of all work finished, in progress or lust simply a quote to a potential Customer COMPLEX It has to be said that while the package is easy to use once set-up, actually doing so is a complex affair. At the end of the day though, it doesn't matter how user-friendly a package is - it's going to take time to master anything that deals with facts and figures of this nature. There are masses of nominal codes for users to apply their own values to and there's little chance of ever actually running out. Customer lists, receipts. balances and credit card details can all be stored, shown on screen, exported to disk to be used on other packages, and printed Out to show those dreadfully nice people at the Inland Revenue when they come aknocking. If I have any criticism it would have to be the ledger. On most packages, when altering the balance you would not be allowed to go out of balance at any point without the computer telling you so. In Easy Ledgers 2 you can do all your readjustments, leave and then only be told when you try and move into another section that you're in the minus figures. This may sound like a minor detail, but when entering large amounts of figures it's always highly beneficial to be told at the time kamos g • E41. 1 Iamb ""Glsllr4 .........
