The information offered in this guide will allow you to familiarize yourself with the many characteristics andpossibilities of the software.

Within the guide, we will introduce you to the various entry screens, their purpose functionality and the means toaccess them. When appropriate, we provide links to related pages, allowing you to follow a subject through differentlevels of detail or expanded functionality.

Managing your company

Login screenUpon starting up E.C.S E-soft Accounting, the Login screen will be displayed, offering you the option to :

Select the SQL Server database (for multi-database option)

Select a company

Enter user name and password

Select the color quality (Normal or Thin). If you run the system remotely, select thin for faster connection.

Key on Login or press [enter]

Login Screen

What is a company in terms of the application?

From an accounting point of view, a company is considered to be a set of data accumulated and recorded for aparticular enterprise. From a technical point of view, a company is considered to be the database containing theenterprise data.

The database type is SQL Server, the database will be located and managed from an SQL server. In order to benefitfrom its power, Microsoft's SQL Server software must be installed on a server.

A specific company's information files will all be stored in the same physical location on your computer or server,

p11

© E.C.S e-soft ltd

overriding the default Windows behavior of storing some of the components in the workstation-specific ProgramFiles folder. This ensures that all your company data remains grouped within one folder and, when stored on a serverin a networked environment, that it is accessible to all users.

So with E.C.S E-soft Accounting, the only limit to the number of companies that can be managed is the size of thestorage space on your computer.

Why is a demo company provided?

This company, automatically installed with the software, allows you to:

familiarize yourself with the software in an pre-established context that simulates a real business

test and evaluate the impact of a transaction without putting your actual business data at risk

train and allow experimentation without risk

All of the changes you make to the demo company will be kept when you close and reopen it, allowing you tomake a series of tests over time that are built one on the other.

The demo company is overwritten each time the software is installed, unless you back it up. It cannot,therefore, be used for any purpose other than learning or testing.

Creating a companyIn order that the software recognize a database as a usable company, the creation of the database must be donethrough the Administration menu.

The setup will allow you to:

create a new company, including all the default parameters

copy, in part or in full, an existing company

convert a company originally created with another software. This option it's best left to the supportpersonnel of E.C.S E-soft.

Setup the database

In each case, the first step consists of physically connecting to the database.

Selecting the type of company creation

New company

Your E.C.S E-soft application allows you to create a new company that will contain the minimalconfiguration required to function within an accounting application.

Copy an existing company

You can create new company based on an existing one, either in full or duplicating only some aspects of theexisting company.

Naming the company

Naming your company is not the same as naming your company database, as you did in the first step. When youname your company, define the name as you will want it to display on all the reports produced by your application.

Creating and opening the company

When all the information for creating your company has been supplied, you must logout the system and login againto the newly created company.

Setting Up Your Company Parameters

Although default parameters are established when creating a new company, your E.C.S E-soft application also allowsyou to set up initial parameters such as the analysis and account types of the application. Numerous otherparameters can be activated or modified at any time in order to fine tune the behavior of various modules of theapplication.

You can access all parameters through the Maintenance menu of your application

Users and permissionsUsing Simplified or Advanced Security Mode

Two different security modes are provided for user maintenance, simple and advanced.

To be able to work in E.C.S E-soft application, the user must log on to the system. To this end, a user is defined inthe system. The user -specific password can be numeric or alphanumeric. Note that the entries are case sensitive.Although the simplified mode is more easily managed, it works on a one-by-one user basis, obliging you to establishall permissions to each user on an individual basis.

The advanced mode allows for more precise management of large and complex user groups, particularly by allowingspecific denial of certain permissions and incorporating grouping that makes it possible to deal with a full set ofsimilar at one time. At this level, a much more detailed and precise level of security access is available. The majordifference is that access permission can be targeted to the smallest possible level of object, the data object thatrepresents a single form(card) of company information.

The breakdown of permissions is also much more detailed and targeted. Rather than just a Access option, manyobjects have expanded options such as Insert, Update, Delete, that allow you to assign precise capabilities to anindividual, such as having the right to access a particular object but not to either insert or delete it.

If you activate access to a permission that requires activation of another permission to properly function (forexample, Insert or Delete permission also requires Access permission).

Application modules panels

Why do we use modules?Because of the quantity of menus available in your application, they have been grouped into modules that reflectstandard business processes. This grouping makes it easy for those with specific tasks to orient themselves withinthe application.

Grouping by modules also facilitates access restriction. For example, rather than having to specify restricted accessto every accounting-related function in the application, you can simply restrict access to the Maintenance moduleitself. It is still possible, however, to assign restrictions only to specific functions within a module.

If a user's access to an entire module is restricted, the module will appear in grey color (disable) in the application,neither in the menu bar nor in the explorer bar, thereby simplifying the use of the application.

The appearance and functionality of entry screens and reports are basically the same from one version to another,making it easy for you to evolve from one version to another as your business grows.

Know Your Tools

Incremental search is a handy function that allows you to quickly find an existing file simply by entering the firstcharacter of its name in an empty field while in file-addition mode.

For example, if you are situated in a blank addition file in accounts maintenance and want to access your client"E.C.S E-soft", simply enter the letter "E" in the account Name field. An alphabetical list of all customers starting withthe letter "E" will be displayed and you can simply click on "E.C.S E-soft" to take you directly to its file.

Simply press the[F5] key from the appropriate empty field to display a complete alphabetic list of all related-maintenance files (suchas a list of all accounts when in Accounts maintenance). Simply click on the name of the one you are looking for totake you directly to its file.

Using the Search Grid bar

Quick List Rapid Search ZoneYou can rapidly access known information by using the rapid search zone. When your cursor is located on theaccount code or description, you can key in alphanumeric text and it will be displayed in this zone. Your position inthe grid will dynamically adjust to match the text as you enter it to the first characters of the contents of the currentlyhighlighted column.

For example, when a Description column is highlighted, if you key in the letter "P", the highlighted line immediatelyjumps to the first name in the Quick List's Description column starting with "P". If you then add an "A", it will try tofind a name starting with "PA". If there is no matching text, the selection remains in its current position.

Column Selector tool

Click on the Column Selector icon in the header to open the Column Selector window, from which you can choosethe fields of information you want to display as columns in the quick list grid. In addition to providing you with a moreeasily navigated tree structure, this way of selecting columns also provides you with the possibility of defining anaggregate function for any column.

Aggregate functions must be used in conjunction with grouping information within the grid.

Column selector

An aggregate function performs a computation on a set of values rather than on a single value. In this way, itallows you obtain the sum, average, or minimal or maximal value of any field.

The following aggregate functions are available:

Average: allows you to know the average value of this column in a grouping

Count: allows you to have a count of the number of records included for this column in a grouping

Max: allows you to know the maximal value of the column in a grouping

Min: allows you to know the minimal value of the column in a grouping

Sum: allows you to obtain the sum of the values in a column in a grouping

.

Quick List Results GridThe results grid contains the information sets and fields among which we can search. The grid offers us a range ofdisplay-control functions such as shifting columns, sorting, and grouping information sets.

Shifting columns

You can easily shift a column by left-clicking its header and drag and drop it into the desired location. As you drag it,red arrows along the header line will dynamically indicate the location where it will be placed if you drop it.

Shifting columns

p25

Sorting

To quickly sort your results, simply click on the header of the column by which you want to sort. A small triangularicon will appear beside the header if a sort is possible. An upward-pointing triangle indicates the column is sorted inascending order; a downwards-pointing triangle indicates a descending sort order. If you want the other sort order,simply click the header again. A third click causes the triangle to disappear and the default sort order is reinstated.

Sort order will be determined by the data type of the column's information. A numeric data type will sort thecolumn in numeric order, with the number 2 appearing before the number 13 in an ascending sort. Analphanumeric data type, however, sorts alphabetically, looking at one character at a time from left to right, soan ascending sort on that data type would place the number 13 before the number 2. Date or time type fieldswill ensure a chronological sort.

Grouping

The results grid can be grouped and sub-grouped in function of its various columns. To group by the contents of aspecific column, simply drag and drop that column header up into the grouping bar that runs along the top of the grid,just above the column headers. Red arrows will help guide the placement of the group.

It's name will remain there as well as in the column headings and the contents of the grid will readjust, groupingthemselves as a tree structure. The contents of the grouping column will display as primary branches with + and -symbols attached that can be used to open or close the specific branch. When opened, the full-line listing of relatedgrid lines is displayed. Multiple branches can be open at any time.

Grouping columns

Sub-grouping

If you drag another column header into the grouping bar, it will create a further set of branches within the existingones, further sub-dividing the logic of the listing. Red arrows will help guide the placement of the sub group and afterdropping, it will connect it to the group name with logical-flow arrows. Any number of sub-groups can be added insuch a way. Group positions may also be switched by dragging and dropping the group names among themselves inthe grouping bar.

To continue the example used above for grouping, you could then sub-group your customers by city, resulting in adisplay where the opened country group would list a series of cities and an open city within that branch would list allthe customers located in that city.

p26

Sub-grouping columns

Un-grouping

You can ungroup at any time by simply dragging a group name from the grouping bar back onto the column headerbar. Note that group names must be un-grouped individually. Ungrouping the higher level will simply readjust thegrouping, moving the next lowest level to the higher level.

Quick Search ScreensThe Quick Search Screens contains the information sets and fields among which we can search.

On the left hand side you will see an enquiry (selection) section. Here you can enter your enquiry parameters inorder to narrow down your search screen. Each field corresponds to the analogous column.

For example enter the account code in the field "Code" and click "Enquire" to search in the Code column or enter theaccount description in the "Name1" field and click "Enquire" to search in the Name1 column and so on.

To remove text from the enquiry (selection) section, simply press backspace.

The grid offers us a range of display-control functions such as sorting, and grouping information sets.

When your cursor is located anywhere within the grid, you can key in any column and dynamically the desired card itwill be displayed.

The Search Screen option produces a search screen specific to the type of the maintenance screen being used, suchas the one shown below for Accounts entries.
