is a Cloud Accounting
System
Websba.com is an integrated CLOUD based complete multi-user
Accounting with Production Management system that has been reconfigured to
install on any “privatedomain.com”. It is ideal for small “brick and mortar” business
and practicing Accountants who endeavor to expand their sales and services to
the Internet. With websba.com software any small business can bring the Cloud
into their in-house Windows Network Server and provide worldwide controlled
secure access to their information system. No need for VPN or risky remote
connections to the server.Websba.com is an integrated CLOUD based complete
information system (Accounting, Production & Fixed Asset Management,
Payroll with Time and Attendance including Shopping Cart). This websba.com system evolved from an empirical basic need of a
small business that purchased component parts (hardware and software) and
integrated them into a finished product to replenish inventory and or to sale
to customers who physically visited the store and to others who browsed the
web. Systems that provided these
features existed in the market for large companies but required a large
investment in hardware and personnel that was not feasible for small
business. With good understanding of
cost Accounting and Manufacturing processes we undertook the task of
developing a web based smaller system that would imitate the systems
available on mainframe systems. We used programming languages that were conducive to on line
operation (web centric) such as html and basic and java scripting unlike the
network centric languages used in the larger systems. Websba.com system went on line in 2003 and
demonstrably helped to effectively and efficiently manage the small
"brick and mortar" computer integration business. In today’s
parlance one would say “it brought the cloud in the office” back in
2003. Websba.com has been offered to
other small brick and mortar system integrators, restaurants, property
managers and practicing accountants on a subscription basis. Websba.com has now been reconfigured to install on any typical in
house windows server. It requires a
fast connection to the Internet and any private domain name. Now any small
business can purchase this complete proprietary system for private use and
not for resale. |
This data can be accessed securely from anywhere at any time using
a web connected PC or smart phone.
The system comprises all the functions
needed to run a brick and mortar and/or an on-line small business: 1) Basic
accounting functions 2) Inventory and Production Management (Bills of
Material, Work Orders, Inventory ordering and Sales Forecasting) 3) Time and
Attendance with Payroll, 4) Fixed Asset Management with depreciation and 5)
on line Sales ordering with Shopping cart. The system handles many “user
accounts” that can be securely accessed on the cloud from anywhere at any
time with preconfigured privileges (IDs and Passwords) that are user
controllable. When the system is used with Microsoft Access, it provides for
data base backup and off site safe keeping (database downloading and
uploading). That is, a user can
download the database from the cloud for off-sit safe keeping and upload it
to the cloud when needed. We found no other program in the internet offering
such flexibility. It is ideal for “Brick and Mortar” business and for
Accounting practitioners who endeavor to expand their business and practice
to the cloud. The system performs satisfactorily in a small business
environment with medium size (Intel®
Core™ and Xeon Processors) Servers with Microsoft Windows server 2008 operating in a
multi user environment with one fast connection to the Internet and a fixed (static) IP address bound
to a private domain. Visitors with valid ID and Password to the Private
domain have exclusive access to the websba.com data base but are totally segregated from any
other area on the server. As stated in the original Press Release
