TC Drill Down

Want to get to the heart of your data? Want to be able to create custom reports in Excel or OpenOffice Calc fast?
Then the TC Drilldown will help you. It has the ability to group, sort and filter all the transactions in a Set of Books with only a few mouse clicks and is very powerful. If you have problems with your data (eg wrong entries) you need to know what amount on what account needs to be corrected. The TC Drilldown will help you hunt this entry with the help of its ophisticated filter and order features.

SQL Browser

If you are more of an expert than the average user and you know how to write SQL (Structured Query Language) then you will love the SQL Browser. Even if you do not fully understand the details or file structure of TurboCASH, you can also use this SQL Browser as a filter and sorting utility.
Make any valid SQL query and run it. The return or result of your SQL rows can be grouped, filtered and sorted with just a few mouse clicks. This SQL browser also allows drag and drop features, which make it easy to work with. Anything can be exported to the XML (Extensible Markup Language), HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), Microsoft Excel, or a Text File format. This powerful tool will empower you to produce your own custom view of your data in TurboCASH. This plugin is developed by P Valentijn of Delphidreams in the Netherlands.

Dutch Bank Import

Importing Bank statements will save you error-prone data entry and gives you the ability to check your bank account so that nothing will pass without being noticed. This plugin allows you to import transactions in Bank Statements in a comma separated value format (*.csv) or a fixed length format. Before you can use this option, you need to have created bank accounts in your Set of Books. This plug-in is developed by P Valentijn in the Netherlands.

XML Audit File Export

The XML Audit file export is the standard for exporting your data (General Ledgers, Debtors, Creditors and Transactions into the XML (Extensible Markup Language) file format. It is based on XBRL which is the most commonly used export standard of financial software. This is currently used in the Netherlands to export the necessary data to the Tax authorities. Even if you do not export to the Netherlands Tax Authorities, this program can be very helpful to you. If data is exported in this format, other programs can import a file in this format. For example, in the Netherlands, you do not have to retain a full working copy of your accounting software anymore if your records have been saved in this format after your tax year. Should the Tax Officers want to check a businesses books, this file is usually handed to them. Previously, a business would have been obliged by Dutch law to have a working version of the businesses' old accounting software as well as the data for the tax year which they want to check. With the updates of software and computers, this can be a big issue. The Dutch are a leader in this technology, but other countries will soon follow. This plug-in is developed by P Valentijn in the Netherlands.

TCData Utility
