This VM is created for 2 reasons: 1. Very little initial setup work required to make an Accounting Software live, within minutes. 2. This system should keep running for Years, without requiring Updates / Breakages.
If you are new to Virtual Machines, then please watch the Video below ( taken from my other project. just replace td with ac wherever mentioned )
After starting this VM, please login to its administration panel with:
Website Address: https://ac.local/
( Accept Any Warnings )
Admin Username: admin@mysite.com
Admin Password: change_this
from any PC on your Local Network.
Explore all options available on its side menu, before beginning any data entry.
Once setup & running, please ensure that a Backup of the system, is taken regularly, to avoid any issues.
These are covered in the video. Google Search helps in finding more about Akaunting Software and its extensive documentation.
Features
- A user-friendly and FREE Accounting Software For All.
- As this system is meant for local network usage, it uses a self-signed https certificate. Hence, browsers will throw a warning for the first time. Please accept the same and proceed ahead.
- A small correction in the Video below: Choose a LAN Card Network Adapter Connection in Virtualbox ( Not Wifi ), after connecting your PC to your Router / Switch, with a LAN Cable. If the Router / Switch has a DHCP Server enabled inside, then the Virtual Machine, will be able to obtain an IP Address from it, quickly.
