There was a time when I had fun with every Debit and Credit I posted. I looked forward to making Adjusting Journal Entries and could not wait for my month end bank reconciliations. There was a time when accounting was fun; then I woke up from that dream. Accounting was never fun. But what if fun is having more time to spend adding value to my organization, being more efficient and not having to work weekends?
Too many accounting systems are designed by technical people who do not have the real-world experience of using an accounting system every day. These are individuals who have not had to post journal entries, or run monthly financial statements, or even do that monthly bank reconciliation.
Making accounting fun again is about delivering a real-world accounting automation that solves real-world issues. For example, your accounting system should be available when you need it without having to jump through hoops. All the technology plumbing should just take care of itself. Why should we worry about hardware and wires anymore?
