Different Aspects Of Nigerian Financial Software Development

By Marcie Goodman


There are several systems that are used for the maintaining of various accounting records within a financial organization. An accounting system is uniquely developed to take care of all the recording needs. In most cases, the receivables, payable expenses and an array of expenses that are incurred in the process of running various operations are recorded in one system. The Nigerian financial software development process should assess the current needs of various users before implementing a new system.

An accounting application has several features into which specific types of data is entered. These applications define what should be entered into the special tables and forms before the actual entry of data. The forms and tables in the applications represent the various accounts in an accounting world. Data of the same type is organized into the receivables, research and development expenditures and other general expenditures.

Organization based assessments ought to be carried out at the preliminary stages. The various tests conducted on the current systems help to establish what is lacking in the current accounting applications. Any duplication of data or redundancy of processes is established at this stage. The tests establish what needs to be changed in the current systems. Any upgrades or complete overhauls are also pinpointed at this stage.

Once the problem has been established, the developers embark on charting a path that will be used in finding the solutions. The process of developing various applications is very complicated. A special team is assembled by the developers. Each of the members within this team is assigned as special role. Some are entrusted with the data collection and information organizations. Other players have a role of parameter assessment. The information of various players is consolidated during the programming and coding of problems in question.

Once the structural programming elements have been identified, the programmers and the coding team start the process of putting the problem into perspective. Coding is done in various applications. The modern coding programs have automated some processes. The objects are defined and then the characteristics of various objects are built around these items. The bits are then linked to form the final project which is then tested for any bugs.

There are several constraints that the managers are faced with. In most cases, costs of developing the programs may end up rising more than expected as a result of inflation. Budgets get out of hand. The delivery of systems under consideration may be delayed as a result.

The implementation of the new pieces of systems is very important to particular firms. The managers supervise the implementation. In most cases, a parallel implementation strategy is often implemented to reduce the level of risks associated with system implementation. The risks analysts help ascertain the amounts of risks that can be handled by each individual firm.

The Nigerian financial software development process is done in accordance with the international standards. The computing standards ensure that the projects that are implemented have certain qualities. Through the standardization process, the risks in the computing world are reduced as the systems are thoroughly tested.
