Hi,
do you have a URL for LSMB?
http://www.ledgersmb.org/
It's commonly called LSMB but you have to search for ledgersmb, which
stands for Ledger Small Medium Business.
That'll teach me to give links when I post.
As for the bug.. you may get a prize, I'm not sure. I've never had to
account for any lambs - silent or otherwise.
-- strange --- I type it in google and I keep getting "did you mean
LAMB" instead of LSMB accounting? Anyway I can't find it in the first page.
Clicking on the second page goooooogle switches to searching for "LAMB
accounting" in the search field. Huh? Bug in google? Same thing happens
in google chrome.
Is there a bug bounty for this? (I saw it first!)
Thanks,
Ben Donohue

Hi Patrick,
For general accounting I use WXBanker. I've also used KMyMoney and
Grisbi, which are both OK, but WXBanker is a bit simpler.
You will also probably need an invoicing package, and as far as I can
tell there are no good simple user-friendly invoicing packages for
Linux yet. (If anyone knows of one please tell me.)
I have trialled several packages including one with an SQL database
and a PHP interface via a web page, but it was very cumbersome and
non-portable.
I've been using LSMB for several years which is Postres/Perl/Web based
and is GPL. It isn't perfect but it's certainly served me much better
than MYOB did previously. I can give my accountant access and she does
her magic as required. It has quite granular access rights, which is
often handy.
I'm not sure what you mean by "client management" - if you mean
invoice control, then LSMB is fine.
It's got a lot of functionality that I don't need or use such as
inventory control and POS.
It's in steady development and the mailing list is very responsive -
especially the authors addressing issues. A couple of years ago I had
some self inflicted database corruption, and the lead author logged in
from Seattle using skype and ssh and de-bugged the database for me for
$150 on 24 hours notice. Can't complain.
I now use an old shareware package from Windows called
Instant Invoice. Unfortunately it is no longer available in that
form, but you can buy their combined invoice and cashbook package from
http://www.instantinvoice.net/
A free 30-day trial is available.
I had some troubles with Instant Invoice in earlier versions but
under Wine with Ubuntu 10.4/Mint 9 it's been bulletproof.
Regards,
Jon.

Hi all,
I'm looking for some recommendations in relation
to accounts and client management software.
My wife is a Clin Psych.
She'd like to keep track of her money (obviously
:)) and to be able to work out who has paid and
who owes money, as well as the monies she has paid
to others, print out accounts to be paid (by
others to her) and so on. The sort of small
business stuff people usually have to do.
Can anyone recommend software they think would fit
the bill.
We're presently running Kubuntu 9.10 (and better :))
Regards,
Patrick
