AutoCount Accounting – Your All in One Solution For Smarter Accounting
For decades, the traditional payment process has been a tedious cycle: a general clerk manually drafts a payment voucher, a manager prepares a cheque, and the accounting team later posts the transaction into the system. This method is not only time-consuming but also prone to human error and duplicate data entry.
What if you could streamline this entire workflow, enhance control, and eliminate manual errors simultaneously? With AutoCount Accounting, you can. This article explores how the powerful AutoCount Payment Voucher module is your all-in-one solution for smarter, faster, and more secure payment processing
In a traditional setup, a draft voucher is just a piece of paper. AutoCount transforms this into a dynamic, controlled digital process.
General clerks can create payment vouchers in a “Draft” state.
Managers or senior accounting staff with the requisite knowledge can review, check, and approve these drafts directly within the system.
Once approved, you can instantly print a professional payment voucher listing to prepare cheques. Crucially, the system automatically posts the transaction to your General Ledger (GL), debiting and crediting the relevant accounts accurately.
This built-in approval function eliminates the need for double handling, protects against unauthorized payments, and ensures that your books are always up-to-date.
AutoCount caters to all your business payment needs with two specialized voucher types:
Specifically designed for setting supplier invoices from credit purchases. This is your go-to accounts payable.
Used for other credit expenses and payments not directly linked to supplier invoices, providing complete flexibility for all outgoing transactions.
Furthermore, both voucher types integrate with a cheque printing function. Once you key in the cheque details, you can print cheques directly from the system, saving time and reducing manual errors.

Many accounting systems limit your flexibility, allowing only one-to-one or one-to-many payment. AutoCount stands apart with its multi-to-multi capability
This powerful feature allows you to record multiple payments to multiple expenses or suppliers within a single voucher. This is incredibly efficient scenarios like consolidating payments to a single vendor for various invoices or making one cheque run to cover several different expense types. it simplifies complex transactions and saves significant data entry time
