(189)-MODULES

Modules

A module is a program which deals with one particular part of a business accounting system.
An accounting package will consist of several modules. A simple accounting package might consist of only one module (in which case it is called a stand-alone module), but more often it will consist of several modules. The name given to a set of several modules is a suite. An accounting package, therefore, might have separate modules for:

  • Invoicing
  • Stock
  • Sales ledger
  • Purchase ledger
  • Nominal ledger
  • Payroll
  • Cash book
  • Job costing
  • Fixed asset register
  • Report generator
