Companies using webERP.

[VortecCPI]

The biggest problem I have had transitioning people from qb is persuading users of the importance of adopting the discipline of webERP because QB allows users to get away with poor accounting practices which makes thinks easier in the short term but harder in the long term

100% agreed on that my friend. QB does a lot for the money and is just fine for many experienced accountants. Unfortunately for those without any accounting experience it can lead to some very bad practices.

QB is a tool and like any tool it can be used improperly...

I am interested in this. Especially about how you transitioned users who were comfortable using QuickBooks to using webERP.

Thanks

Jeff,

For now only I am using webERP and while doing so I am creating a process manual so when others start using it they will have a quick-reference guide available.

While the webERP manual is extensive and well done (thank you all) it can be overwhelming to a new user, especially if he or she is only using a small subset of webERP features.

In my case my fellow owners have good accounting experience and are familiar with GAAP at high level so I foresee no real issues. However... If the only thing a person has used is QB and he or she has little accounting experience I think the transition could be difficult. Qb allows one to do things that should never be done in a multi-user and/or enterprise environment.
