Hi Mark,
My wife, a professional accountant, is using GNUcash for small business and
is making her life much easier.
However, there are a few things it cannot do out of the box, and needs some
tweaking. From memory it is GST stuff and others.
A lot of smaller companies use Xero which is web-based. From my (limited)
inderstanding the customers use it for basic book-keeping while she seems
to do the more "difficult" jobs, as providing regular BAS statements to the
ATO and others.
Regards
Peter

Hello All,
I have a friend who has been stuck on Windows because of being tied to
being able to hand his accounting data to the accountant in a Tax
Office approved format, which has meant Quicken/QuickBooks or MYOB.
I am not so certain of legal requirements, but what double entry
accounting packages are there, and are any approved? I do know of
GNUCash, but not the current status, and is it available for him to
play with first on Windows.
I an constantly annoyed by the insistence that only commercial
packages are valid, when the quality of the coding is demonstrably
dubious, let alone whether there are any "back doors".
Regards,
Mark Trickett
