I require a fairly simple accounts package for a small business. This program MUST be in Java. The program allows the owner of a small shop to make a note of outgoings and incomings on a daily basis. This is not done for individual sales, but for the total sales in a day. Other incomings, such as cash from debtors, and outgoings, liabilities can be noted down in a simple format. The point of these transactions is to keep an updated version of the final accounts (balance sheet, profit/loss account and cashflow statement). When the daily figures are changed, either added to, amended or deleted, the corresponding figures on the final accounts also change. This is so that by the end of the financial year, the final acounts which I mentioned, are up-to-date. There will also be graphs of the data ie. bar graph showing sales.
The program will allow the user to set up an account, where he has a login name and password. Other business information will also be stored, as account information. The main menu will contain "Daily Transactions", "Final Accounts", "Reports" and "Log Out". The Reports will be "Cashflow Forecast", "Break Even Analysis" and other business financial ratios such as "Gearing", "Rate of Return" etc. The Reports can also be viewed graphically like Final Accounts.
Due to the nature of the project, the bidder must be one who can program in Java, and is familiar with accounting and finance. Ideally, it will be someone who has done this work before. I will also require an explanation, possibly documentation of what has been done.
If more details are needed, I will e-mail them to you. I must also say that I am on a strict deadline of no more than 2 weeks. It should not take a competent programmer more than 2 weeks.
