      Accounting is the process of keeping the record of a company’s financials. However, Bookkeeping is the process in which all the business transactions made are put into the database for keeping records.

      Bookkeeping

      The dictionary definition of bookkeeping is defined as “the skill or occupation of maintaining accurate records of business transactions.”

      In simple terms, bookkeeping is recording and organising financial data.

      Accounting

      When it comes to accounting, the dictionary states accounting as “the skill or practice of maintaining and auditing accounts and preparing reports on the assets, liabilities etc of a business.”

      Basically, accounting takes all of that important financial data, prepares reports for business owners and investors and ready’s the reports for HMRC.

      Bookkeepers vs Accountants

      by brack nelson ·

      In reply to Bookkeeping or Accounting Software

      A bookkeeper’s job is to maintain complete records of all money that has come in and gone out of the business. Bookkeepers record daily transactions in a consistent, easy-to-read way.

      An accountant analyzes the financial data recorded by the bookkeeper and provides business owners with important business insights and financial advice based on that information.

      Difference Between Bookkeeping and Accounting

      by masonolivia ·

      In reply to Bookkeeping or Accounting Software

      In the simplest of terms, bookkeeping is responsible for the recording of financial transactions whereas accounting is responsible for interpreting, classifying, analyzing, reporting, and summarizing the financial data. Bookkeeping and accounting may appear to be the same profession to an untrained eye.

      There is no Best as Such it all depends on where you are and what you do.

      Different countries have Different Laws so what works well in one country may be Illegal for use in another or at the very best leave you open for Literation by your countries Tax Collection Agency.

      There are other issues like for instance if you are in a High Security Business the use of any form of Cloud Computing may be against the rules as it is a open attack vector that you can not plug and could loose all of whatever you are doing as a core business.

      With any form of Accounting Software you have to look at what can be used in your Country and what is considered as Best Patrice in your Industry and work from there. For instance here in AU if you are doing Military Work and chose to use an Accounting Package that was Cloud Biased like many of them are and you let a foreign Country in as a result you would find yourself facing a Treason Charge which you could not win no matter how much you wasted on defending yourself so it’s best to look at what is considered as Best for your Industry and Country and remember Ignorance is no Defence in the eyes of the Law.
