I am looking for accounting software in Malaysia. Which product is the best so far? I am familiar with Accounting software called QnE Software Malaysia. I think it is pretty easy to use. But yeah, I would like to know some other recommendations

The most commonly used accounting software
is UBS Accounting developed by Sage for me.
I don't know about the best, but if you're
working for a company try to find the most used
accounting software unless you want to make your
own firm then you can go ahead find the best which
suits you.

Thanks for the recommendation. How would I know which is the most common accounting software used in Malaysia?
How much does UBS Sage costs? How long have you been using it?

Malaysia as a whole, I don't know either.
I've asked around the nearest town and company,
most of them used that. As to how much it cost,
somewhere around RM1,200 or so.
I'm still surveying on which accounting software to focus on using though.

It always depends on your organization size and needs.
If you are running more than 10 branches, UBS is definitely can't suit your needs as it is not really customizable, means that you have to change your internal process flow in order to align with the software.
Note down your problem, arrange vendor for demo, see which vendor provides capabilities that suit your requirement and within ur budget for s/w.
Usually they will do demo for free one, if not travel cross state.

Actually there are no "best" software. It depend on your company's requirement and whether the software can fulfill you needs. The most common one used by a lot of companies are "UBS, SQL, QnE, MYOB, Autocount, Biztrak, 3A, etc"

Feel free to contact them for free demo, I'm sure they are happy to see you.

Cheers.

use sage before...
the support were great...
the module were easier to get around...

hi, I'm currently using UBS v9.1. Am intending to change to Sage, as I need to access online when I'm on the move. Any advice?

Tq

SmartBiz SQL

I am looking for an accounting system. Best if can syn with inventory.
Any inventory system in market can/have syn into phone app or pda?

Most important is easy to capture stock price and quantity so we can capture the details while in office. We are trading company and most of the time salesman are outside doing vansales.

Please recommend any time attendance and payroll system as well if you know any.
Looking for simple and cheap enough. Have look before ubs payroll and sql payroll. Any other recommendation and the price is cheaper?

Salesforce FTW !

I have used QnE,UBS and MYOB, all have their strengths and weakness but all suit the needs of the different organisations that use them. So to answer your question, there is no 'best', it all boils down to the requirements and needs of the organisation.

Yep, Aydee is right. All of them has pro & cons, it depends on which software suits you the most beneficial features.

Master Business Suite is the best

www.masteritec.com

Last time my aunt install at her computer with UBS.
I think UBS is essential for accounting.

Ermm...try Autocount Accounting software. It might be hard for a first-timer but trust me, it's worth learning.

There is a new Accounting, Payroll, HR related CMS platform coming. Keep in touch www.doptor.org

It will help you a lot, saving money & time about 95%.

for more detail www.doptor.org

i think autocount is good also

From this link Lowyat Forum link Accounting Software Links I can tell you the top 5 SME accounting software vendor is
UBS
SQL Account
MYOB
AutoCount
QNE
The rest either too few users to be significant or technology too old to be useful.

Hi all, I have been using UBS and MYOB for few years, this two are pretty good accounting software that i have came into.

Recently I found a new developed software (million), I found it quite helpful in any manner compare to UBS and MYOB. The UI are straight forward, data input and editing can be done easily, and the price is quite attractive. I am not sure if it suits you guys, but no harm to give it a try, right?

here is the webpage address,

www.million-accounting.com

if not mistaken, they have free trials available.

gotcha!

side note, choose wisely. It is likely the business will be using the software for a long time.

Okay boss, still want to see whether the accounting s/w can link with the existing pos system or not.

I feel UBS is the most popular and longest. The advantage is they have team up with college and there is ready pool of manpower who know how to used it trained by local college or used it before.

However, I agreed that they are rigid, difficult to customize and suitable for small business up to certain size only.

Their technology seem a bit old.

Others used Microsoft SQL database, which is newer technology and might able to use Business Intelligence or upgrade to other ERP system when business growth later. Skillful accounting staff should be able to switch between different accounting system.

UBS is really sucks ! salesforce is way better ... i used UBS for 1 year ... many error

i had use peachtree (sage50) for 5 years so far, and i very comfortable with it,

and sage50 usa version and malaysia is totally diferent for those who used the usa version please do consider other software, you will want definately regret if you think that sage50 malaysia is as good use as the usa version... no!

the clicking is crazy, just to print out a single invoice you need to click like 8 clicking , as compare to the usa version only 4 click.

and the interface is lousy, small colum and roll sometimes u will click into the wrong section,

lastime when with sage50 usa version i only need to spend 1 hour to print all my day invoice, but now with sage50 malaysia 2 hour imagine la..

one more note...the default template got bug, they cannot set other size paper other then "letter" page size setting, even if you change it to other size , when u want to print the 2nd invoice they will go back to"letter"

inefficient of backup, only merely 2 month of invoice data when i back up , it create 200mb backup file crazy!.

not not not user frenly at all

Synergy, budget wise.

I think QNE Software is much easier and flexible for servicing or stock-base company.

QNE is pretty good for general accounting workflow, there are some ranking for accounting software in Malaysia:

1. Autocount Accounting software *
2. SQL Accounting software
3. Q&E (QnE) Accounting software *
4. ICS accounting software *
5. Mr Accounting *
6. UBS Accounting Software *
7. OBM Accounting software *
8. Smart Accounting software
9. First Accounting

Hi, I think the list is not up-to-date.
UBS confirmed drop from the list.

What is the latest list?

- Autocount Accounting software
- Q&E (QnE) Accounting software
- SQL Accounting software

UBS is the most basic accounting system. Avoid it if you can because in my view the scalability is not there and with GST it has many bugs. MYOB is not that much better as well. But both these software are good enough for very small and simple businesses.

Spend a bit more to get a better accounting software like Autocount or QnE. Autocount seems to be very good on the GST part and is very flexible and has Excel like interface. QnE seems good too but not as flexible as Autocount.

IMHO none of the common & cheap (below RM10k) software are flexible enough to automate your processes. They are all entry level software for small companies.

SAP is a very powerful software that can handle most aspects of your business. However, SAP doesn't make sense for even medium size companies due to the cost to implement and the expertise required to manage it. You need more people to work in SAP compared to other softwares because it can cater to very specialised job functions. Great for large companies but not so good for small ones.

Unfortunately I have not found any software that can bridge the very wide divide between SAP and the cheaper software mentioned in this thread. I am looking for something which is highly flexible & customisable but still relatively cheaper and simpler to use and implement.

Forever free... What are you talking about? sounds like some con

Hi,

I'm planning to run a small online business, focusing on one product with variation of colors.
I notice most of the accounting software sells the inventory module as an add-on, sometimes it could be 50% of accounting software itself.

May I ask if it's recommended to purchase only the accounting software, then perform the inventory management manually (say like excel) ?

I'm currently considering

a) MYOB
b) QnE
c) UBS
d) SQL

Like to do billing, accounting entries, issue PO, cash book at the minimum.. anyone got any suggestion which one i should choose?

thanks!

You need to aware that MYOB is not even rank top 10 in the list, it's famous 10 years ago, but not now. UBS software is going down to the drain since the company was bought over by Sage. Foreigner software doesn't suitable for local business. E.g. You will find a lot of redundant columns like First name, Last Name, Street, Address, Province, SSN. While local software using Name, Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, Postcode. Did you see the difference?

If you were asking who are the top player in the SME accounting software in Malaysia, I'd say Auto Count, SQL Account (Do not confuse SQL Account with SmartSQL), and QNE.
Since it's a startup, I guess your inventory still easy to be managed. I'd suggest you to take accounting module as a startup, manage your inventory in spreadsheet, 4 years later when you can see your inventory flow, then call them for upgrade. Implement an accounting module isn't an easy task, believe me, you won't have the time to key in your inventory. If you don't have the time, better don't key in at all, instead of key in half, otherwise the Cash Book reports will be in the mess in the end.

Thanks for the advice, I was thinking of maintaining the inventory separately. I'll look into autocount, sql and one. Which would you say is user friendly?

we are using intuit quickbook now. Quite good with recurring invoice, auto email, GST feature.

If you're considering to maintain a separate inventory software, try out inflow inventory.

click here

You can try out the free edition first.

User friendliness is important, I'd suggest you to go to their office to see the demo. User friendliness can be evaluate through whether or not their software cover all aspect of accounting works. E.g. Import and export GST calculation screen. When using an accounting software, we want to eliminate the work of manual Journal Entry (JE). This is also one of the disadvantage of using UBS accounting, forever using JE.

Please consider the most important criteria in choosing a software is the stability, it means how often will comes up posting error, the locking mechanism in their database design. E.g. some transaction data is missing once in a blue moon. These criteria is hard to evaluate during the sales demo. Choose the established one, instead of those new emerged software name.

Otherwise go to their youtube to see the UI design:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPsu4IwhoT0

Hi, there's a paid plan as well, depend on what you are looking for, there's no need for a paid plan if it is a con, isn't it?

Do you know what you are trying to write?
It's really hard to comprehend the england nowadays. Perhaps I'm not good at it.
Hope the software that you were trying to introduce is not something that very hard to use.

There is more update info from QNE, you can take a look from here:
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3920882&hl=

Had anyone tried quickbook before? Was wondering if their fees worth it monthly or to pay for one time fee for other softwares.

Hi, my small business start from October this year , non gst registered. Zero knowledge on accounting. Just use for open invoice cash sales.

which accounting software easy to use? please suggest me.. Thanks all.

It can be either QNE, Autocount, or SQL account.

thank you ^^

look for a wife can do accounting is the best accounting system after all. you don't need to worry anything, she take care everything for you.

From personal experience, which accounting software to use really boils down to the person familiarity with that specific accounting software it's self. Our office staffs is only familiar with UBS, and if you tell them to change to another accounting software they would have real trouble coping.

Conclusion here is that there are really no "Best" accounting software, it depends on your personal needs. Do your own research instead of relying on what people from ads or sales will tell you.

It took some effort to familiar with your england, but I do understand what you r trying to say smh.
UBS (accounting module) has a very bad rank in Msia, for experienced account clerk they r gonna have a smooth learning curve no matter which accounting software u give them, because all accounting software use the same workflow, just minor difference in GUI.
Ads and sales tell you the features and quality of a software. How to determine the quality of an accounting software?
1. Locking mechanism. It prevents user from simply delete a transactions from a database. How easy the data gets corrupt. Does the security built up to par?
2. software features. Generic cant fulfill the specific one. No business software is generally fit for all due to different operation in different places (tax code, entities name, etc), operation flow.
3. Local software has more competitive advantage over overseas brand. Came across as a SAP consultant, I'd say even for big player like SAP, they dont have good market in Msia for many reasons not only because of price.
4. Helpdesk support - whether or not the dealer has built a strong team for the whole year support, it's important to access their company structure. I have seen some dealer who don't have a team to standby for technical support.
5. many more, too long to write ...

Hope you will dig down in a deeper level in sourcing if you really care about the business system infrastructure used by your operation.

you kinda wrong

his england Sigint kinda readable to me,nothing wrong about it. UBS is cash basic accounting.. not full accrual accounting. unless you bought all sub module. UBS easy much to understand while other too way complex.

1. Locking mechanism. It prevents user from simply delete a transactions from a database. How easy the data gets corrupt. Does the security built up to par?
In accounting no such thing as delete. Only reverse journal.

2. software features. Generic cant fulfill the specific one. No business software is generally fit for all due to different operation in different places (tax code, entities name, etc), operation flow.
Tax depend on country.

3. Local software has more competitive advantage over overseas brand. Came across as a SAP consultant, I'd say even for big player like SAP, they dont have good market in Msia for many reasons not only because of price.
this dono

4. Helpdesk support - whether or not the dealer has built a strong team for the whole year support, it's important to access their company structure. I have seen some dealer who don't have a team to standby for technical support.
Yeah true.

5. many more, too long to write ...

This post has been edited by alien3d: Sep 9 2016, 05:29 PM

probably I was kinda wrong, and you are kinda right, but I'd kinda like to let you understand some points that I kinda want to highlight.

1. no such thing? Just so you know, a lot of the software out there can just let customer to delete a cash bill/ invoice/ voucher etc. This is so call locking mechanism.
Whether or not the user want to reverse journal or delete invoice, that's an option by the user.
Good accounting software should never allow user to delete any transaction (invoice/ voucher/ receipt). What I kinda like to mentioned is about whether or not does it has such restriction. Not about reverse journal.
Refer to the SAP Community Network, there are many info about how a user should reverse the transactions in the event of wrong entered. One thing I like about their software is that the entire software is so strict, and it never give users a chance to delete any transaction. Sad to say that our local accounting software design is go down to the drain, the software engineer did so just because the customer said so. Somehow they were being called the R&D, in fact they have development, but not research.


2. Tax depend on country? What are you trying to say? Of course all of us knows that tax system varies in different country. What I mentioned is feature. For example, you get used to the bidet in Malaysia toilet, but when you travel to the Sg you realized that there is no bidet in their toilets, u blames that why the public toilet don't have this kind of features. This is what I wanted to say "PRODUCT FEATURE". Tax feature is actually only the tip of an iceberg.
You are like want to argue, but with no point.

3. I kinda dono what you kinda dono. What I kinda tried to say is local software is more favored by the local business due to price, software features, local support team, marketing nuance, customers who bought the software because they knew the boss, etc

4 and 5 I don't wanna repeat again

Accounting software is a tool, so important for the business. Selecting which software for your business is more than meets the eye. Ayam promote liberal, and ayam hope to listen to more point of views (solid one) instead of emotional judgment.

You may blaim old people because this not me.. Accounting is much double entry.. so when you delete transaction in general ledger and not effected cash account /treasury account,ar account.. you account will not balance..

To be exact in accrual account, transaction can be deleted before posted. If posted need to post journal to balance account. I prefer not to mention it because some accounting software live posted some accounting software batch posting.

If you want mention technical.. I would said WTF a lot in all vendor here in malaysia and all the world. For end client would said one thing.. Ohhhh, somebody printing report.. Server key in slow sikit lah. or oldays ini malam ada batch.. jangan kacau server. Or more older system.. we purge last 2 month.. so we only depend on report printed.

And UBS is famous because of this, because if delete general ledger.. there are not sub ledger to think upon..


My Conclusion is ... a lot of accounting system out there, but every company had their own style...so this is mess every vendor need to match idiot msb,frs or whatever wtf regulation come and go.

This post has been edited by alien3d: Sep 10 2016, 01:10 AM

No transaction should be deleted even it has never posted.
1. This is going to create inconsistency in the database. Think about the document number, imagine you have more than one user who doing the data entry in more than one place. It's no feasible to design a system to find out what is the next document number should be adjusted back on track. I've tried multiple brand of accounting software, and all I seen is that user need to manually set the next document number. Imagine the user do it quite often, he's going to spend time to check with the rest of the users in other places.

2. For audit trail purpose. Same document number appears once, I don't think it looks nice to the auditor. Not even Kastam. Came across big international software. They never allowed to delete any invoice from the system. But they do have work around such as CN, reverse journal

I didn't mentioned about technical, if u have that problem, you should work it out hands in hands with your vendor perhaps. Or your boss cut your salary to pay for a more sophisticated network infrastructure, or you stop blaming the software vendor while sit there for doing nothing. That is something related to the LAN-WAN performance, most of the time not caused by the software.

One thing I heard is not many clerk get used to UBS, because of many special transactions need to manual pass JE. Manual pass JE is easy for account clerk, but not for normal clerk who is new to accounting.
I'm not sure how bad is UBS, I've seen they printed ads on the bus, aired on the radio. Good software should be focused on its engineering business instead of throwing money for marketing campaign.

if you printed even not posted... cannot just delete record you just mark is delete . So when auditor check.. Eh what this document number printed twice.. one deleted one exist in GL and diff figure transaction also ?


Yup, most because of software.Because it's was junk of pile code and also hardware..Get a least good IO... GOOD RAID + SSD. . But some db no choice lock / hang after certain limit of user.. ** prefer not to mention vendor name here.

it's not engineering , it's regulation.. and if new come like GST.. all cramble because dono how to match with their old system.

It sounds like you have agreed to the point that deletion of invoice shouldn't be allowed.
Server hang issue most likely not due to the software, I have never heard of the theory junk of pile code. And I do believe any mainstream computer can do the job, unless you are using pentium 4 that kind old spec. The performance mostly depends on the connection between server and client. Modern computer users are multitasking, internet radio, cloud drive, email, these are the apps that sucks up the bandwidth.

This post has been edited by k town shit: Sep 10 2016, 02:42 PM

Nope. Been heard complain company using x y z product. If single user not much issue.Pile junk of code because to cater all business regulation.How much size is microsoft dynamic and sap?if not mainstream dont compare lah.banwidth not an issue but main problem io hard disk. 10/100 mbps should be enough for 15 people but if db is cap ayam like firebird. Chock yo.

I've never heard of pile junk of code, maybe you are trying to say the slow performance due to too much processing job in the server.
Some application was designed to put more processing in the server, and vice versa. When the server takes all processing jobs, that is consider thin client. On the other hand, if the processing jobs shared by the client app in the end user's PC, that is consider a fat client, the server wont be too heavy of workload, it reduces bandwidth consumption.

I recently heard of a quite successful accounting software Wavelet EMP, it's using AWS (Amazon Web Services) platform cloud based to run the accounting software. User is able to open up the apps anywhere to connect to the server. Good is the scalability, the power of the server can be upgraded or downgraded anytime with just a request to the data center. No more hassle to add RAM, add hard disk.

I guess there will be more accounting software go cloud-based.

yes i mean pile of junk of code.. which really really large non use at all.. You all the flexibility or easiness like ubs.. which dam small size installation file.
I dono wtf thin client /fat you mean. Processing batch only allowed at the server only not client base. Is not torrent like you share processing.

Wavelet emp ? i only knew erp(enterprise resource planning(erp) or material resources planning(mrp)).

If you want simple accounting go to Xero.. But in mean time, all accountant know the hassle of mess general ledger account which may can transfer to new system / web portal or not.Because some chart of account is hardcoded in the system.

** sorry i hate terms.
** emp i know eletronic magnetic pulse loh.. dono another new term

With decent computer spec, the size difference of a installation file doesn't really make a difference, imagine u have a hard disk space of 250 GB, even that installer is 500 mb, it still doesn't make so much difference, what matter most is the architecture design of a software.
Fat or thin client is a concept used by big ERP like SAP/ Oracle/ Microsoft. That is an option where the user environment has connection constraints, and the client PC takes up some of the processing works to reduce burden in server.
Btw, Wavelet EMP stands for Enterprise Management Portal, that is an ERP system also. Local software house, and they doing quite well in China.
Terminology is very important in software development, someone experienced coding like u also know that right. Terms must be very clear in every page of the system. ERP and MRP are general terms used to described these software, there are many brands out there able to perform the same jobs.

Chart of account shouldn't be hard coded in the system, that is a big no is for an accounting system, different accountant want to have different set of CoA, what is good for one company might not be good for another.

Yes , if in technical term i would said " Freakin 10 pages of store procedure just to run a report ". I don't care terminology, because each year got new term.. Understand the flow much important rather then term. Ain't school ya to remember all this sh**.

Welcome to real world la. COA is hardcoded .

Terminology is the basic knowledge you need to learn before starts development.
Current cheque is current cheque, PD cheque is PD cheque. Even the business operation workflow often change, but terms in accounting are not changing drastically.
If u know how to build a software, but u didn't differentiate the terms, u r gonna build crap. If u r not good in coding, but u understand the business process terms n workflow very well, u still can work out with someone else to build a good software.
Life is really simple, don't insist on making it complicated.

The real world is there are many decent accounting softwares that are flexible in setting up CoA. For example QNE Optimum:

And all the big software out there are doing so. Just so you know

Of course PD = Post Dated cheque. Would you consider PD cheque as Port Dickson cheque in you software?
Nowadays people are so Confucious wannabe, in a way when they are not able to convince, they try to confuse.

just another in life ma.. love to be simple.. But sometimes they always be people think over complicated.. So need to cater this folks also... I do prefer 1 ledger account rather then normal 4 set.. It make system totally complicated and too large.

Hi, anyone heard of Sun accounting system? Does it msia gst compliant?

I personally haven't heard that name before, it could possibly be a new startup. As I look into Kastam website, there is no such name yet. You can look into the website also


Tips on selecting a software:
1. Look into YouTube to see if there is any recent video showing how to use
2. Check into RMCD/ Kastam websites
3. Call or meet the sales person for a demo

I'd prefer tip number 1, as the user can refer back to the YouTube clip whenever he wants to. What is the software is capable of? YouTube video tells all its features.

Thanks for the info.

yes been heard from my uncle.. not sure gst compliant. long time ago he told me.

You can check in the RMCD website bro.
