Do I need Support?
Every effort is made to make TurboCASH as easy to use as possible. The majority of our users do not require support. However TurboCASH is a powerful accounting tool. In the hands of a non accountant (or even a qualified accountant) Garbage In will cause Garbage Out (GIGO). Also it is a database and is sensitive to breakage.
Please make regular backups of your data !!!

There are a lot of exciting things happening in the open-source world, and TurboCASH is one of them. By becoming open source, TurboCASH is becoming the most popular accounting package available. And what a feature set (see bottom of TurboCASH homepage for a detailed comparison of TurboCASH with Simply Accounting, Peachtree and DAC Easy).

If you are a small to medium sized business, and particularly if you need an integrated Point of Sale System that is bar code ready; if you are already using an accounting package that does not fully meet you needs; a package that is expensive and you need to upgrade, or you are using a 'bootleg' (and therefore illegal) copy of any of the commercial accounting packages, YOU MAY WANT TO SWITCH TO TURBOCASH - RIGHT NOW ! TURBOCASH is a much wiser and cost effective choice in any of these and most other situations.

You already know that setting up an accounting package is unlike setting up any other application. Installing the software and configuring it to work with your hardware (if you have not bought a complete system) can be a lot of work. Then configuring all the features you use to work harmoniously together is still more work. But when it is all done and working correctly, its an absolute joy.

If you are not already using TurboCASH and you are running a business that can benefit from an accounting system, you may want to avoid attempting the setting up process yourself. That's where I come in. I'll install the software and provide training and technical support as well as an avenue to support TurboCASH by purchasing additional stuff from the company such as manuals, CD's and the like. Certainly, you would support a great company that has made this great product so easily available.

Image:Online48.png Translate / Localize Documentation
We regard the TurboCASH Documentation system as as big a project as TurboCASH itself. We have to make TurboCASH run in every market and every language for which there is a demand. This is a really interesting site for non programmers, who are nevertheless interested in taking on a technical task.

We have added Documentation pages which may be accessed from the Country Pages. Documentation needs to be customized for each Country using the following criteria:

  • Language - spelling rules, dialect, accounting terminology, tax terminology used in that country.
  • Set of Books - spelling rules, dialect, accounting terminology, tax terminology and Tax rates in the Chart of Accounts.

Documentation can be translated on the Wiki with ease. Interested persons can contact digidan@absamail.co.za for assistance.

See how easy it is to use the Wiki gor documentation.
