Microsoft's Access database prompted VAST Accounting to fill the accounting software market gap for the small to midsize business.
The market required affordable accounting and data management software. VAST Accounting is written completely in Microsoft Access. It is fully integrated with the entire Microsoft Office suite of products. The accounting software interacts and is integrated with Microsoft Outlook 2000 and XP to allow internal faxing, e mailing, and management of customer/vendor data in Microsoft Outlook itself.
This Microsoft Access based accounting software consists of the following components: general ledger, accounts receivable, accounts payable, check register, contact manager, inventory (with kit assemblies), purchase orders, job costing, sales order entry (with return merchandise capability) and payroll. Source Code, customization and support is also available.
