    Model documentatie

    These double entry accounting template has been prepared by a CPA operating in Ontario for their internal accounting and financial planning. Following is a quote why is using Banana Accounting next to their other accounting solution.

    "Here are some benefits that I see for your software:

    • Works well without requiring an internet connection – work can usually be completed faster without such delays.
    • It allows very high customization.
    • It allows easy and complete collaboration between an outside accountant and users.
    • Time saving – accounting records can be partially entered and completed later by the same person or the accountant.
    • The spreadsheet interface is easy to understand.
    • Every transaction can be entered in one form, as opposed to not knowing in what screen in which to enter something.
    • Data can be easily copied and pasted into a spreadsheet for further analysis.
    • Setup of a new data file is relatively easy with the appropriate template.
    • Your program can run on many platforms.
    • Tasks can be automated using internal application programs.
    • One can purchase an upgrade when it makes sense, as opposed to paying every day for the use of the software.
    • The purchase and upgrade prices are affordable."
