I stumbled on this post while researching another topic but must admit as an AccuBuild user, I am not sure or aware that you may have a different program than the one I worked on. Although I am very recently retired from the business, we ran the AccuBuild program since 2000. I must admit that I do not understand some of the statements. 

When we purchased the program one of the first things that we wanted was to make sure that the program was date sensitive and did not have a “hard close” which would make you close a period or year before progressing to the next. We would not close our fiscal year until after the accountant would give us our adjustments (although the program is flexible enough to be able to enter the adjustments after the fact).  By the time that we received the information back would be a good month or more and we were always able to continue working without interruption. 

 

Another statement made was that AccuBuild did not allow for items to be entered “on the fly”, I am not sure if the user knew that next to each point of entry were there may need such a function was an icon. If clicked this would take you right to the screen to enter on the fly, after adding, closing takes you back to the prior screen. 

 

As for the reporting, I never did count, but my guess is that there were a few hundred different reports and the user has the ability to copy, edit and customize these reports. Although we found the packaged reports to be sufficient, I also understand that you could even create a report from scratch. Also, ours did come with a copy of a Balance Sheet and Income Statement. 

 

I am sure that the user I am responding to had his issues and valid or not I do notice that he states he returned to Peachtree. We spent one year prior to purchasing AccuBuild, which was a good decision,  on a program somewhat equivalent to Peachtree but must say that if AccuBuild had not worked out we would have never gone back to the old way
