Is there a good free accounting/invoice software available?

i could be posting in the wrong place apologies if i am...i just started work in an office where everything is recorded manually on paper an absolute nightmare when i have to retrace an invoice from months ago.

Im looking for a basic accounting package to record the invoices and receipts preferably with mobile/web access so i can update from home also if any one has any ideas. I tried express accounting from nchs but its only a trial version

thanks

Quicken or Quickbooks. Neither is free but they are exceptionally good.

If you are on linux you could look at GNUCash, but it's a bit clunky but workable (last time I looked anyway)

TurboCASH on win is okay, but if you try to modify the forms you'll need to know a bit of Afrikaans!(I.e. the program is written in S.A. and the database fields are nearly incomprehensible, only a problem if you need to create an invoice etc significantly different to the built in ones._

If you are looking for something a bit more scalable, with a web interface you could look at sql ledger, Ledger SMB, Compiere (spl?) or OpenERP (but only if you can handle setting up a web server!) All free unless you want support.

Don't expect any of these to solve your problems without a bit of work . If it's a decent sized commmpany with more than a few invoices a week you'd be better off paying for SAGE or something tailored to the irish market as it would handle your tax too!

You also need to take into account [he he] the package your accountant is using for your end of year process. If he can't import the info from your package, it will be a HUGE headache.
