I've found no single list, although I'd love to see it one if it's
available.  Microsoft has a CD of their preferred providers, third party,
whatever you call it.  Get a copy of that.  Also get the Oracle book of
3rd Party.  Oracle lists over 50 different packages for accounting
systems.  Incidentally, Oracles old-fashioned book was much easier to use
than the CD.  Also look for a back issue of PC Magazine.  This fall they
reviewed about 10 accounting packages for networks.  I'm working on the
third manufacturing/accounting package for my company in 10 years, and
this is the first time I feel comfortable in the selections available.

If you can't find what you want without going to custom software, then
keep looking.

You could try SQL Financials, Great Plains, or Platinum/NT.

Good luck, Jackie

Windows NT Fans:  

There is a list of accounting systems that run on Windows NT at

      http://www.excelco.com/comp_wnt.html   

That list needs to be updated, but there are at least 20 major
systems that work with Windows NT.

I'm not so sure that "native" mode is the best way to make an
MIS system.  CAD systems and other systems that do scads of math
need native mode, but not accounting.  For another perspective
on the downside of "native" mode, see the write up at URL

      http://www.excelco.com/sw_gui.html    

If you want to do comparisons of these (and over 100 other) products,
see our pages at 

      http://www.excelco.com/compdemo.html

To download The Accounting Library.  It compares over 120 accounting
and MIS systems using a list of over 1200 questions that you weight
according to your needs.  The analysis can result in specific ranking
of alternatives using criteria you choose.  This is an UNBIASED
comparison.

If what you're looking for is large systems, I think you'll want to look
at primarily these:
Lawson
SQL Financials
Coda
Computron
FlexiInternational
Hyperion?

I believe all of the big 3 (SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft) have pledged NT
versions. I know SAP has, but details are sketchy. Why you'd want to
implement just financials of SAP is beyond me...not that it doesn't kick
ass when it comes to accounting...just that you'd need heavy SI work and
you'd be paying for a lot of functionality you wouldn't be using if you
just had financials.

P.S. Anyone know of any >$1B companies running their GL (or more) on
NT/SQL Server?

Is Macola 7 a native Windows NT application?

We are using Platinum NT.  It is currently a 16 bit client app,  but
uses MS-SQL Server for the back-end.  NT Workstation clients are
explicitly supported in their version 3.2 product.

We are using NT Workstation clients and NT Server running SQL Server
for the database.
