Accounting Support Specialist

While I am not an accountant, I have been working with and supporting financial accounting systems for about twenty years. I consider myself especially proficient at getting data in and out of those financial systems to seamlessly share with other applications. During the last seven years I have been supporting manufacturing systems software including MRP & ERP as it integrates into the financial system.

I am a certified accounting system administrator, specializing in the Macola Progression series from Exact Software. The majority of my recent experience has been in Macola. I have conducted training classes and provided one-on-one help-desk support on most modules of Macola for about five years. I have been and continue to be the bottom-line internal system administrator for the finance and manufacturing systems that run the business.

For three years, I supported a package called Khalsa Accounting from KIS, which runs under the Metropolis database on an Alpha Micro operating system (AMOS). I have supported many other systems including Genesys from Point Four Data, written in Unibasic as well as Thoroughbred accounting, MAS90, Systems Plus, MAI, BASIS International and other Business Basic flavors. A large portion of my time is spent in generating custom reports in Crystal Reports.

Starting in late 2003, I began supporting Mfg/Pro from QAD out of Carpenteria, CA. It uses the Progress 4GL database and SQL-92 with ODBC 4.2. I was part of the team that evaluated and chose Mfg/Pro from among many systems that we evaluated. We went with QAD because it was the best fit for our business. The implementation was done in record time – just under four months. The project was budgeted at $500,000 dollars and we came in on time and under budget. I now support about 160 users who access the character-based system via telnet onto our super-fast Red Hat Linux AS 2.1 system.
