Accounting Systems Set Up

Project details

What we need
  • Setup of selected accounting software (e.g. Aplos, Araize)
  • Training and guidelines on how to manage system and generate basic reports
Additional details

I need to review my accounting system and secure an accurate accounting system from data breaches, as well as implement cyber security.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a book keeper, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have an accounting software, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,409 , allowing us to buy another computer.

This project is important because it will help us get insights on our existing accounting system and be structured to allocate funds to build communities through journalism.
