--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disk No 519 BUDGETRAK Version 1.21 (DISK 1 of 2) v3 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- BUDGETRAK is an excellent Encumbrance accounting package that would be of interest to people working in the department of a large company who have a desire to track their own budget and expenses more closely than possible using the general information generally contained in a central accounting system. Encumbrance accounting tracks obligations and planned expenses rather than actual expenses. This is the first of a two disk set. This package differs from a more standard accounting system in that when an expense is anticipated, the estimated amount or encumbrance is entered. The entry is reflected in the remaining budget. When the actual expense is known, it is entered and the encumbrance amount and budget are updated. This gives a more accurate picture, for budgeting purposes, than waiting to record an actual expense. The system will handle both single and double entry systems and also produce a 12 month spreadsheet. Five balances are maintained: Budget, Variance, Encumbrance, YTD Variance and Actual. The coding reflects the program's intelligent design: 2 digit company code, 7 digit sub department and a 6 digit account code. It can handle up to 999 master records and up to 12000 transactions per month. The package has a password system and comes with a set of utility programs and good documentation. A high capacity floppy drive or a hard disk is recommended for this package.
