accounting-software-selection

authentic

Scores shortlisted accounting packages against 57 evidence-backed fields, emitted as CSV, SQL, JSON Schema or Notion on request. Use for choosing accounting software.

When to use

• accounting software selection
• accounting and erp software comparison
• vendor demo evaluation sheet
• accounting package quotation tracker
• three year software cost comparison

When not to use

• Empty template only. It does not score for you, run the demos, verify a vendor's claims or turn a quotation into a TCO.
• It never selects the package. It records the decision the business makes in `Selection Decision`, with `Rejection Reason` and `Deal-breaker` beside it; it does not make the decision and it names no preferred package.
• Not a bookkeeping, tax-filing, legal or procurement system. Quotations, contracts and purchase orders stay in the vendor's own process.
• It cannot verify Nepal IRD, VAT, TDS, e-billing, CBMS or SSF handling for you. Those stay `Untested` until the business holds current evidence from the vendor or the authority.
• It does not confirm that a product does what a vendor page says. That needs a named human verifier and a dated source.
• A go-live checklist is a list the business carries out with the vendor. Chart of accounts, tax configuration, users, inventory, opening balances and the test entry are not done by this skill.
• `Software`, `Vendor` and `Evaluated By` are free text, so a duplicated package or evaluator is a data-entry problem this table cannot catch.
• No relation fields. There is no link to a quotation, demo or product register.
