Connected Precision Mid-range Accounting (Mac & Windows)


is a mid-range cross-platform accounting program with single and multi user versions for Macintosh and Windows operating systems. Connected consists of three modules: Accounting, Inventory Control, and Job Costing. This is a logical choice once you outgrow MYOB, Quickbooks or your other entry-level package. It also has more sophisticated job cost management and inventory control features than the entry-level packages. And it holds more data & runs faster on a network. This is what you use if you have more than 2 or 3 users and/or hundreds and hundreds of jobs, inventory items, customers and or vendors.

The Accounting module, the cornerstone of the Connected integrated software system, includes General Ledger, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable. This module delivers a powerful set of financial management tools. Standard features include up to eighteen open periods, profit centers and departments, a report writer, and complete detailed audit trails. Internal accounting controls are much stronger for better monitoring & batch control of what others input. There are comparisons to budget & even a Consolidation Solution Plugin.  The AR & AP modules are very robust too.

The Inventory Control module link includes sales orders and purchase order control as well as full-featured multi location inventory control & bill of materials. Other module features include product ordering, multiple price levels, and sale and movement tracking capabilities. Just what the doctor ordered for a growing distribution, light manufacturing, or retail operation.

The Job Costing module link includes full job management allowing job creation from estimates, revisions, POs, time sheet control (w/time billing), budget to actual info. and much more. There are multiple ways to bill from job estimates & WIP. The job profit monitoring goes well beyond entry-level software allowing the tracking of actual costs, labor costs and accrued PO costs, all in the same report. These are among many other features overlooked in entry level accounting. These sophisticated functions provide your business additional tools to do much more and to help your business keep growing.

With verson 5.4 there is optional & sometimes very necessary Server Software called the Omnis Data Bridge (ODB). Its a background system daemon (disk and execution monitor) that runs invisibly on a server and listens for requests from Connected clients on a given port. The ODB uses TCP/IP and therefore bypasses other standard network protocols like AppleTalk.

This speeds things up and also allows you to protect the datafile by putting it in an unshared directory for higher security if you wish.

The ODB also allows Connected clients on both Mac & Windows platforms to simultaneously connect to a Connected data file on a Mac OS X server.
