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.
