None of you can call yourselves accountants; you're just QwackBooks users. The truck drivers of the office. Your boss thinks of you as a whiny, tail-dragging . That's why he needs just one of you who knows the entire system. Maybe you'll get lucky with an assistant, but most likely they'll cause more problems, because it'll be the boss's daughter and she doesn't give a .
Yes, this initiative has been fueled by hate directed towards Intuit and the overall accounting community for refusing to advance. It's like playing AoE with a noob who's refusing to advance to the next age because there will be more units, technologies, and strategies to manage. Most businesses have one accountant, which means this entire profession is one initiative away from not existing at all. There's no excuse for a modern accountant to not know at least SQL.
The patterns and practices that I demonstrate in the solution are nothing genius, it just took a while to put it all together, and it's very basic. Just one table with credit/debit columns, rows of which have to be organized into a transaction and linked with user-actions, like creating invoice, receiving payment, adjusting inventory, really anything, including foreign transactions.
When the calculator was invented, we didn't get stuck with a bunch of "calculator-operator" professions, so why does accounting get to stay stagnant?
