INTRODUCTION
This system is conceived with the accounting function at the core, with the specific operation
of an organization being supported through libraries.
Currently, most existing systems require acquiring and installing a myriad of interfaces, demanding
a heavy investment in infrastructure. In hotels, for example, you will find a reservations system, a front office system,
a POS, an accounting package, a payroll system, a stores system etc., all linked up
with some sort of interface, all licensed separately from different vendors.
Systembora attempts to resolve this by offering a system that has accounting at its core
and through libraries plug in support for your operation. We have also endeavored to accommodate high scalability,
such that you only need to deploy infrastructure commensurate with the size of your operation.
The accounting core is intuitive, customizable and highly optimized, and follows closely international accounting standards.
It covers the nominal, debtors, creditors, stores and payroll ledgers.
Systembora will from time to time publish different libraries to support as wide a range of operations as possible.
These libraries can be downloaded from the opera link.
-
GETTING STARTED
Download the business manager version that best fits you, and run the setup on your pc.
Version numbers ending with SME stand for small to medium enterprises while LE stands
for Large enterprises.
SME versions support both networked and non-networked environments.
They are also scalable to LE when such need is reached. Both SME/LE versions are by design
client server environments but the SME vesrsion can optionally choose stand-alone architecture.
Next, download the library that best describes your operation, if available. This step is optional…
the system should work properly without the opera library.
Systembora will from time to time upload libraries that support different operations...
the ultimate goal is to cover as many operation codes as possible.
