Hi Everyone,
First, I am against the concept of cloning tally. Because tally is a
very unsafe software. We refer to it as a "Time Bomb".
I have explained this in the past on the group, but let me explain
again.
Hi Saswata,
The tally alternative was suggested by the OP of this thread which is
also related to the same. The target users were intended to be
retailers and small businesses which are already using tally on windows.
Tally is good only for a small retailer who does his own accounting.
The moment you have an accountant doing your accounts, tally is a
disaster waiting to happen.
Will the system suggested by you and Kenneth serve these customers or
is it only for high end corporate companies.
The accounting system can always be made simple. So long as the user (or
the business owner) understands the benefit of a strict accounting
system that does not allow you to insert restrospective entries, it will
be ok.
Most retailers and traders use FA or QFA or Tally as their accounting
package.
These are people who will stick to windows anyway.
There will always be a set of users where it is not worth the efforts of
educating them. But if they are NOT writing the accounting entries them
selves, they will understand why tally is dangerous to their financial
health.
May I also suggest that the final package should be a fully
functioning package with front end gui included so we can freely and
directly download and install it in the clients' machines and get them
up and running without any tweaks or configuration.
I agree with this.
Regards,
Rony.
