Meeting topic, computer accounting BY BRIAN HALL FARM MANAGEMENT SPECIALIST FOR HURON COUNTY Upon purchasing a computer, one of the first priorities many business managers would like the computer to do is keep accounting records. The decision on which account­ ing package to purchase can be confusing, as many times, users have no prior experience with computer accounting records. To help you understand some of the software accounting programs available, the Huron MS DOS Users Group is hosting a meeting on Monday, April 8. The speaker for this month’s meeting is Doug Denomme from G. W. Pafsons & Associates in Exeter. Mr. Denomme will be discussing the various accounting packages available from ACCPAC including ACCPAC Bedford. ACCPAC BP1 and ACCPAC Plus. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at the OMAF office boardroom in Clinton. For further information contact the OMAF office at 482-3428 or 1-800-265- 5170.
