Backup question

Post by Pat »

Our church is using PowerChurch ver 9.0 on two computers, one of them offsite. We want to start doing payroll on one computer, and the rest of accounting on the other computer. Is there a way to do this and keep the accounting sychronized on both computers?

Thanks in advance

Yes you can, but it won't be easy. If someone is doing changes on one computer, while the other is also having changes done, you can get out of sync really easy.

Is someone doing payrolll and someone else doing accounting ??

Right now it's one person doing both, but the church is looking at having somebody else do payroll on one computer, while I do the rest of the accounting on a seperate computer. I suspect it would be better, and a lot less work to keep it all on one computer.

Thanks

Much easier to keep it on one computer. FWIW ... we have a person who is not on staff that is designated Treasurer, they do all the major accounting work on the system and payroll. Our church admin does the minor bill entry and payments only.

That may be an option.
