product in Narsingdi District. Their supplier name is Radiant Export and Import Enterprise.
In this report we try to find out Revenue and Expenditure Cycle of Kazi stationary world. In
revenue cycle they use mixing of manual and automated system for keeping and processing
the information. They use inventory management software for keeping inventory item record.
In their software they can keep track on their inventory items, can generate invoice, add
customer list, add supplier list and generate sales report. They have some drawback like they
can generate long product list invoice. They dont have any security features. Their All kind
of Sales order and Purchase order are authorized by the Sales Coordinator. They take order
from the customer by manual process. Then they create Invoice memo by digitally. For this
they use their inventory management software. For purchasing order they have to mail the
supplier. The software they using dont have the fully accounting function. Since the shop is
small so for performing the proper accounting function we recommend to use TURBOCASH
accounting software. This software is GNU license that means its cost free to use.

An accounting information system (AIS) is a structure that a business uses to collect, store,
manage, process, retrieve and report its financial data so that it can be used by accountants,
consultants, business analysts, managers, chief financial officers (CFOs), auditors and
regulatory and tax agencies. In particular, specially trained accountants work with AIS to
ensure the highest level of accuracy in a company's financial transactions and record keeping
and to make financial data easily available to those who legitimately need access to it, all
while keeping data intact and secure.

Proposal for implementing TURBO CASH to Kazi stationary world

Kazi stationary world have already using Inventory Manager Software. But this software
didnt give those full features of accounting function. And this is a small size shop. So we
proposed an open source accounting software which is Turbo Cash.
TurboCASH is the worlds leading open source accounting software for small business.
TurboCASH is developed from the contributions of hundreds of up streaming developers in
many compatible open source projects. It is aimed at the small to medium-sized business
market, this places it between being a home finances package and being an ERP package. Its

16

core function is a General ledger, posting transactions into accounts and producing financial
reports. Plugin technology enables developers to extend the system. The features are:

Costing and benefits for having this software:

TurboCASH is a free accounting software package. They can have real time data about
inventory, they also for billing, payrolls, payables and many other services. They also can
prepare balance sheet, income statement using this software. This software is very efficient in
respect of time and money. So ultimately this software will help them in many ways. Their
other benefits are given below:
On-screen input and printout of sales invoices
Automatic updating of customer accounts in the sales ledger
Recording of suppliers invoices
17

 Automatic updating of suppliers' accounts in the purchases ledger Recording of bank

receipts
Making payments to suppliers and for expenses
Automatic updating of the general ledger
Automatic adjustment of stock records
Integration of a business database with the accounting program
Automatic calculation of payroll and associated entries
Problem of Turbo Cash Software
Some problem we found in TurboCash which are given below:
1. Their user interface is outdated not modernize.
2. Mouse-only input. Its not possible to operate TurboCASH using only the keyboard,
you need to reach for the mouse frequently, causing efficiency to plumet.
3. Inefficient windows. My screen is a reasonable size and I may have thousands of
accounts to choose from. But the window for account selection is piddling and small
and cant be re-sized.
