The Modules The modules are distinct programs that accomplish specific accounting tasks such as General Ledger, Inventory, Accounts Receivable, or Accounts Payable. Although they aren’t all designed to run independently, you have the ability to use them and integrate them according to your needs. Each module can be set up to run without affecting the other modules or you can set up the modules to work together seamlessly. In addition, you can install and uninstall these modules for each company and further customize the system for your needs. Keep in mind that if you are using one or more of the add-on modules, you may have additional setup and other options not covered in this guide. The core package (Accounting) guide contains the information you will need to use each module included in the software.
