MYOB Indonesia

MYOB Accounting berbahasa Indonesia? Itulah yang banyak ditanyakan ke saya. Pertanyaan itu wajar semakin banyaknya orang di Indonesia memakai aplikasi ini. Memang sampai saat tulisan ini saya tulis MYOB belum (tidak?) mengeluarkan versi yang berbahasa Indonesia. Saat ini MYOB sudah sampai MYOB versi 17 dan yang Premier 11 tetapi belum ada tanda-tanda untuk berbahasa Indonesia, yang ada adalah MYOB versi Asia dengan pilihan regional International untuk Indonesia tetapi tetap berbahasa Inggris.



"All MYOB software is backed with comprehensive services and support to ensure you get maximum value for your business"

Tapi saya pikir ini juga tidak perlu toh kalo sudah biasa nggak akan ada masalah karena tampilan MYOB juga cukup sederhana.

Peachtree Accounting, Belajar Alternatif Program Komputer Akuntansi

Kita sudah sering mengenal Program-program akuntansi seperti DEA, MYOB, Quickbooks dll. Kali ini kita akan mengenal program Peachtree Accounting. Peachtree Accouting merupakan software akuntansi yang dikembangkan di Amerika. Program ini lumayan komplit feature dibanding pesaing-pesaing di kelasnya. Sekilas tidak mudah untuk memahami pemakaiannya, seperti halnya MYOB. Namun begitu saya sudah mencoba ternyata hanya butuh sedikit pembiasaan.

Beberapa tips yang mungkin bermanfaat:


1. Saat instalasi program pastikan alamat penyimpanan program, karena tidak disediakan pada saat membuat data baru.
2. Pilih tipe Build your own untuk membuat daftar akun berbahasa Indonesia
3. Buatlah daftar akun terlebih dahulu kemudian atur default-default program
4. Gunakan Peachtree versi 2003 atau diatasnya, karena versi sebelumnya beluam ada fasilitas credit memo secara khusus.

Excel Accounting alias Excel Akuntansi

Excel Accounting / Excel Akuntansi adalah implementasi sistem akuntansi yang dijalankan dengan program Microsoft Excel. Dengan lengkapnya fungsi dan didukung penggunaan makro menjadikan Excel dapat dijadikan alternatif untuk sistem akuntansi berbasis komputer.

MYOB TIPS: Entering gift certificates in your MYOB product

It's easy to use your MYOB software to track the purchase and use of your company's gift certificates. Here's how you do it:

  1. When a customer purchases a gift certificate, create an item invoice in the Sales window. In the Sales window, enter only the customer's name in the Customer field and the amount of the gift certificate in the Paid Today field. When you're finished making these two entries, click Record. A message will appear, warning you that the invoice has very little information. Click OK in the message to record the transaction.

  2. When the gift certificate is redeemed, create an invoice to record the sale, just as you normally would record a sale.
  3. Next, locate the transaction you entered in step 1 in either the Sales Register or the Settle Returns & Credits window (depending upon the version of the MYOB software you're using). Select the transaction and apply it to the invoice you created in step 2 when the customer redeemed the gift certificate. That's all there is to it!

MYOB Tips: How do I setup my company data file to record the various customer payment types?

Before recording your customer payments, you will first need to setup the Prepare Bank Deposit feature and your customer Payment Methods.

Prepare Bank Deposit
A linked banking account is all that's needed to use the Prepare Bank Deposit feature.

Please note:


If you have created a new company data file using one of the current MYOB program versions, the linked banking account will have been automatically setup for you. If so, then please skip to How do I use the Prepare Bank Deposit feature.

Step 1 Create a new banking account
To create a new banking account:
1. Click Lists > Accounts > Assets > New.
2. Click the Detail Account option.
3. Set Account Type to Bank.
4. Enter the Account Number and the Account Name (Undeposited Funds).
5. Click the Details tab and set the Tax Code to N-T. If desired, enter an account Description.
6. Click OK and return to the Command Centre
Step 2 Link the Undeposited Funds Account
Click Setup > Linked Accounts > Accounts & Banking Accounts. Enter the Undeposited Funds account in the Bank Account for Undeposited Funds Account field. Click OK and return to the Command Centre.

Payment Methods
To access the Payment Methods list, click Lists > Sales and Purchases Information > Payment Methods. The most common Payment Methods will most likely already be setup for you. To create a new Payment Method, click New, enter the Payment Method, set the Payment Type then click OK.

The Window on the following page shows the setup of a typical Payment Method.

Enhanced Integration with Excel1

Now customizing your Peachtree data in Excel is expanded! Peachtree 2007 has been enhanced to provide more robust options when exporting data from Peachtree reports into Excel. Data exported from Peachtree not only will include the formulas for calculated values and data formatting but it will also include an option to retain freeze pane, auto-filtering and report headers.
Filter Reports Using Custom Fields

Print-N-Sign Tax Forms2

No longer waste time and money trying to align your tax forms* into your printer and hoping all the data fields align. Peachtree 2007 Print-n-Sign Tax Forms makes it easier. It's so easy because the form layout and all the data resides within Peachtree and will be printed on ordinary plain paper. Plus it includes over 180 state forms for all 50 states plus the District of Columbia. All forms, state and federal, can be printed onto blank paper which can save you money from having to purchase pre-printed payroll tax forms. Just review it, print it, sign it, and mail it. It's that easy.

MYOB Accounting 16.0

One of the oldest accounting packages for the PC, MYOB (Mind Your Own Business) is available in three versions: BusinessBasics, Accounting and Accounting Plus. All share the same interface, which reduces the chore of minding your own business. Here, we've looked at Accounting, the mid-range package aimed at small businesses.


New to version 16.0 is a number of features designed to speed up accounts management. A sales order can now be turned into a purchase order from the same data, MYOB contacts can be synchronised into Outlook, and bank reconciliations can be undone. Plus, there have been improvements to importing and exporting stock adjustments, payroll details and custom lists.
The new Payroll Verification report means that you can preview a payroll and review details for each employee, including wages, deductions and expenses. The software simplifies sending payment notification by drawing purchase numbers, dates and other details automatically from your accounts list into a customisable notification form. Central to this version is the Accounts List, which keeps tabs on assets, liabilities, capital, sales, income and expenses. However, while this database tracks your accounts, access to such things as banking, sales, purchases, VAT and payroll are all made via a simple front-end that streamlines each process as a chart. You could, for example, look at the progress made from making sales to receiving payments. Simply click on the section you wish to access and you will be taken to the transaction.

Verdict
Integration with Word, Excel and now Outlook, as well as an intuitive interface, makes MYOB easy to employ. More advanced users may wish to use the database drivers to access MYOB data from other applications. It's aimed more at business users than accountants, but comes at a good price in comparison with more advanced Sage products and has extra features over Intuit's QuickBooks.

MYOB V15

+ The Company Data Auditor

In the new versions of MYOB (Accounting/Plus v15 and Premier v9) you can now check the integrity of your data on a more regular basis by using the new Company Data Auditor. With just a click of the mouse you'll have instant answers to your accountant's questions!

+ File information


The opening screen of the Company Data Auditor provides information such as the file name, the version of MYOB you're using, the size of the file, the last time it was backed up and verified, whether it has been locked for a previous period. It also specifies the version of payroll tax tables you're using. From this first screen you can also perform tasks like locking the periods or doing a backup.

+ Account Reconciliation

Within the Company Data Auditor is an 'Account Reconciliation Review' which shows you and your accountant the bank and credit card accounts that have been reconciled and when. You can also reconcile these accounts and view transactions.

+ Data Exception Review

Your accountant will love this new feature of MYOB, and so will you. It will save them time, and save you money on accounting fees. The Data Exception Review provides your accountant (and you if you choose to review this before sending them the file) with all the necessary reconciliation reports. It also identifies any problems within your file. By clicking the Run Review button, the Company Data Auditor will:
advise whether the control accounts balance, such as Debtors, Creditors and Inventory
identify transactions with a future date
list changes made to transactions, tax codes or system preferences by each user so you can identify who entered data or made changes and when (through the audit trail)
compare the GST codes used on a transaction against the default GST codes assigned to that account.

After you've run the Data Exception Review, reports are available through this area which detail the problem transactions. This enables you to fix any problems before sending the file to your accountant.

EDP Audit

Komputerisasi telah merambah ke segala bidang, tak terkecuali bidang auditing.
Seorang auditor dituntut tidak hanya mahir dalam audit konvensional tetapi juga harus dituntut untuk dapat melakukan EDP Audit. Untuk itu diperlukan keahlian tentang seluk belum komputer dari hardware hingga software.
Salah satu soft tool audit adalah ACL for Windows. Aplikasi ini memiliki fasilias untuk mengaudit data yang berbentuk soft copy. Namun aplikasi ini hanya mengaudit secara umum mengenai kevalidan data, verifikasi, ringkasan statistik maupun manipulasi data (through the computer). Selain ACL sebenarnya ada beberapa software yang sudah sering kita kenal seperti Excel maupun SPSS dapat dimanfaatkan untuk audit model ini.
