[SLUG] SQL-Ledger Accounting Project

[terryc]

Further to the book keeping stuff in the past few days. The
message at the bottom arrived this morning and seems to tie in
with the thoughts of a few people, so I'm posting the URL, a bit
of the WWW and the message for interested people.

SQL-Ledger is a multiuser accounting system consisting of a
series of CGI perl scripts to retrieve and send data to a SQL
backend. Data entry and display is done via a web browser such as
Netscape. This combination of perl, SQL and a web browser makes
it ideal to modify to your own needs and use in a mixed computer
environment. It can be used from any computer or terminal with a
forms enabled web browser. The scripts can be installed on one
server while the
database runs on yet another somewhere on the internet or behind
your firewall. 

SQL-Ledger is more than just accounting and has modules for
Contacts, parts cross referencing system and scripts to build a
webstore index. 
......................
Developed on Linux with Netscape as the fron end. Uses Perl,
Apache and PostgresSQL

The message below arrived today
.................................


The new version is available at http://www.simtax.ca/acc/

A lot has changed since the last release.

There's a login script to sign in and to setup a users
environment. The
browser must now be capable of displaying pages in a frame,
sorry, lynx
users.

You can now have a different environment and data set for each
user.

The beginnings of a GL are there but not used yet.

I worked on a script to generate a shopping mall. It is included
in this
release but you'd better roll up your sleeves and dig into the
code. Works
similar to a links generator except with products, makes and
models.


<WARNING>
If you want a pure accounting solution this is NOT IT.
There always was and there always will be more of a business
twist to
it than just counting beans.
SQL-Ledger started out as a set of scripts to keep a record of
transaction
but it had more stuff for your everyday things, like faxing,
looking up
cross references, contacts, etc.
</WARNING>


If you need some more info or help just send me an email.

TTFN,
Dieter Simader
