biohazard — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 11:19:12 GMT

is it possible to use accounting link at a remote?

we have 1 store that is not owned by no fear but is a no fear store and attached to our main, they want to be able to link data between thier remote and the sales made at that remote with quickbooks, is this possible or does accounting link only work on the main?

thanks

Upgrade from version 3.0 to 3.2

Burak Sardag — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 10:54:37 GMT

I need to upgrade my accounting link to version 3.2.

We use mas90 for accounting and i only post sales nothing else. Accounting is upgrading to a never version and i have been told the file structure has changed in the new version. In version 3.0 i can not see the new version (4.XX).

I was hoping to getaway with it without updating the accounting link. (Same old saying if it works do not touch)

Is anybody out there using version 3.2 with mas90 version 4.XX if so i would like to know what are the pro and cons?

Thanks,

I am currently testing a palm 1500 to scan in items to my vouchers the problem is because of our product mix the vendors always substitute the items or send the incorrect product. Now if the item already exist on my database it is going to show up as received inventory is there a solution to only scan the items that I order and receive them only I do not want to be stuck with items I did not purchase .I am getting quotes in the thousand of dollars which is way beyond my budget with this tight economy down turn there must be another solution that already exist for my store

Accounting Link Error

RTMeyer7 — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 12:22:19 GMT

When we try to open ACCTLINK, an error pops up instead of it actually running. It's just a dialog box that says "Cannot create database" with a single "OK" button.

I have no idea what to do in order to fix this! Can anyone help?

what kind of info does the link spit out?

flat file, xml?

we do not use any off the shelf accounting software, we use a providex based program called Full Circle (same engine mas runs on)

i can have the import process customized, but i want to know what the export file looks like

can i get a sample file?

thanks

User Advice on pros and cons of Accounting Link & accounting programs

Shmoo — Sun, 02 Apr 2006 07:50:17 GMT

Noble Fellow RPro users,

We're looking for some suggestions on bookkeeping solutions with RPro; we use ver. 8.51 (about to go to 8.52), currently have one store and about to install one remote, and currently send out bookkeeping to an outside provider. The bookkeeper currently uses Quickbooks, and is not interested in using the Accounting Link. The PTB want to investigate other accounting options, and here are a couple questions that I'm curious about.

Do many Rproers use the accounting link? Or use an outside bookkeeper? Do you use the Accounting Link AND and outside provider, or keep all the bookkeeping inhouse? Any reasoning included would be really helpful.

At this point, since we'd be starting fresh with ANY accounting program if we implement the link, is there any kinda/sorta consensus on the Most Favored Nation status of accounting programs? I've seen one reference to Quickbooks, and many for MAS90: is there some place a person could get a comparison of the two? Or of any other offerings? Is one easier to implement than another but has tradeoffs? And so on.

Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Barbara Ann Mahoney

Consolidate by Store+Date?

I use Rpro 8.5x with Quickbooks, and have been very happy with it for the past two years. The only problem I'm having is that it's just taking forever and I want to see if I can speed things up.

Because my two stores use seperate accounts I post batches consolidated by store. Works great. But I need to hve my sales, cogs, and most importantly credit card deposits listed in quickbooks day by day. Most of the reason for that is so I have my credit card transfers listed for each day so I can reconcile my bank statements easily. But that means running 15 seperate batches every two weeks or so. I just did that and it took me about half an hour.

Is there any way to run a single batch that gives me seperate numbers for each day for each store? I don't need to see transaction by transaction (that would be bad, actually) but I do need store by store, day by day.

Thanks for any advice or suggestions!
