#1 Unsuitable User Interface
![Page 5: 5 Mistakes People Make When Choosing an Accounting System](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020218/55955c281a28abca7c8b4794/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
All accounting software do not operate the same way.
The features may be similar, but the user interface tends to differ.
Small details such as language can easily be overlooked.
Kingdee KIS Accounting offers not only English, but also Traditional and Simplified Chinese interfaces.

#2 Impractical Logic and Database
Structure
![Page 8: 5 Mistakes People Make When Choosing an Accounting System](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020218/55955c281a28abca7c8b4794/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Every software works per the logic structure.
The better the logic is, the better outcome you will get.
Compare it with other accounting software .
Always look out for reliable database integration.
Kingdee KIS Accounting integrates with Microsoft’s My SQL, which is strongly reliable even as a database fills up

#3 No Taxation and Localisation
![Page 11: 5 Mistakes People Make When Choosing an Accounting System](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020218/55955c281a28abca7c8b4794/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Make sure there is taxation and localisation option.
A bare minimum is that it needs to be able to file GST reports.
If you’re intending to expand your business to other countries out of Singapore, make sure that your accounting software supports the taxes of that region too.

#4 No Backup Option
![Page 13: 5 Mistakes People Make When Choosing an Accounting System](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020218/55955c281a28abca7c8b4794/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What will happen if one fine morning you come to know that your software has crashed?
Always check how a back-up can be made in your accounting software.
Kingdee KIS users can easily backup the database into an external thumb drive.
Such convenience means that you don’t have to be a genius to perform regular back ups, and you don’t have to be worried when your computer crashes!

#5 No Option to Upgrade
![Page 15: 5 Mistakes People Make When Choosing an Accounting System](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020218/55955c281a28abca7c8b4794/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Accounting software goes through upgrades over time, to meet the demands of businesses and make improvements and bug fixes.
Failure to keep up will cause an accounting software to be phased out eventually, losing to newer and advanced competitors.
If you were to switch to another accounting software, this can be a hassle as the database may not be supported in the newer software. Thus, it’s a wise choice to ask if an accounting software offers the option of lifetime updates.
