Motive
We planned an accounting system which meets the following requirement:
- Easy to verify the correctness of accounting
-
It is needless to say that the correctness in accounting calculations is important,
but it is also important to be able to verify the correctness.
In BOKIN, all processing is file base, and is described in some simple batch commands
written by scheme language and in Makefile. All intermediate files are left after the
calculations.
- Applicable to large-scale accouting
-
You can do efficient calculations with various computers regardless of
the scale of the dimension. Using make(1), you can obtain the output
you want by a minimum procedure, and you can execute jobs which don't
depend mutually in parallel.
User
Though the main target is corporate user, BOKIN will be useful in wide fields.
However, the knowledge of the double-entry bookkeeping is required.
Target
This program read transactions from text file, calculate them and write
various slits with various format which includes text, LaTex, HTML and etc.
Currently we are planning following slits:
- Journal

- Consolidated financial statements
Customizing using scheme is possible.
It is possible to correspond to accounting in a wide field by changing
the account definition file.
