The login page appears.

Recall that during installation, we had created admin user.

Then click on Login button.

The FrontAccounting window opens.
Point to options of Front Accounting Interface Standard modules have been provided in FrontAccounting.
Point to the options as per the narration The various modules are:
  • Sales
  • Purchases
  • Items and Inventory
  • Manufacturing
  • Dimensions
  • Banking and General Ledger and
  • Setup

We will learn about all these modules in the upcoming tutorial.

Narration Let us start with the Setup tab in FrontAccounting.
Point to Setup Icon>> click on it The setup tab is used for Company Setting.

Click>> Setup tab>> Click on the Setup tab.

Click >> Company Setup icon Let us create a New Organisation or Company by clicking on the Company Setup icon.
Point to >>Name field

Point >>'ST COMPANY PVT. LTD'>>

In the Name field, by default, we can see the name of the company 'ST COMPANY PVT. LTD'.

This is because we had given this name during installation.

But here you can also change the name based on how you want it to appear in the reports.

I will keep the same name.

Scroll down.

Since my company is in India, I will setup the home currency to Rupees.

We will be using this information later in this tutorial.
In the Home currency field, click on the dropdown menu.

A list of options will appear.

But Rupees is not avialable in the list.

Let us see how to add a new currency to the list here.
Click on the Banking and General Ledger link in the top menu.
In the Maintenance panel, click on Currencies.

A new window appears.

Type 'INR' in the Currency Abbreviation field and 'Rs' in the Currency Symbol field.

In the Currency Name field, enter 'Rupees'.

In the Hundredths Name field, enter 'Hundred' and in the Country field enter 'India'.

Now click on 'Add new' button.

We can see a message 'New currency has been added'.

Let us go back to the company setup page.

For this click on Setup in the top menu and then on Company setup icon.

Click>> Address field In the Address field,

Click>> Phone no field >> In the Phone No. field,

Once again, you have to give your company’s phone number.

Click>> E- mail Address field>> In the E-mail address field, give your company’s official email-id.
Click on the Home Currency Drop down box. We can now see 'Rupees' in the list. Select 'Rupees'.
Narration Now I’ll do the setup of fiscal year.
Slide 5

Fiscal Year setup

When you create a new Company, you should check that the Fiscal Year is set up correctly

By default, FrontAccounting software shows the fiscal year from January to December.

This is not suitable for Companies and Organisation in India.

Type 01 January 2016 to 31 March 2016. First, I will create a dummy period for 3 months from 01 January 2016 to 31 March 2016.
Slide 6 This is because we have to fill the gap between
  • the Fiscal year ie.1st January 2015 to 31st December 2015
  • and the Financial year which is from 1st April 2016 to 31st March 2017

Then, I will type the next financial year, from 1 April 2016 to 31 March 2017.

Again, click on the Add new button.

Point to >> Financial Year field>> Here, you can see the Financial Year has been created.

Once again, the same message appears -

New Fiscal year has been added”.

Narration Now, we need to update these changes in the Company setup.
Click Setup tab >>Company setup icon Click on the Setup tab.

Then click on the Company Setup icon.

Click Fiscal year Drop downbox >> Current Financial year. Under Fiscal year field, click on the dropdown menu

select the current Financial Year.
