accounting program

Digital ledger system

An accounting program is software designed to record, track, and report financial transactions.

These programs handle tasks like bookkeeping, invoicing, payroll, and generating financial statements.

QuickBooks and similar applications have largely replaced paper ledgers for businesses: We switched to a new accounting program last quarter.

The term also refers to an academic course of study in accounting.
