More on Totally. Its coming along in leaps and bounds. I decided to write my own accounting module. My Mum and I (she's a bookkeeper) sat down one day and spent six solid hours examining exactly what is an accounting system. Once you get a handle on it, its really quite simple, even double entry accounting.
So now, with the help of the design of Totally's database, I've now created a stored procedure that builds a relationship tree for every "thing" in there. For accounting, that's great, because the stored procedure can generate something like this:
[Chart of Accounts]
-----> Assets
-----> Current Assets
-----> General Cheque Account
-----> Petty Cash
-----> Trade Debtors
etc - all without creating a specific procedure just to build this tree - the generic stored procedure builds it all for me. FIGJAM.
Totally is so close to release, and there's been a lot of interest in it so far by current customers and others.
I think its going to do quite well. ;-)
You may have also noticed that I changed the style of my blog. This one looks great.
