Challenges encountered when finishing UBS Project for November 2012 session

The challenges encountered when finishing UBS Project for November 2012  are first find a potential company for convert manual transaction to UBS system.when we find a company for this project. we had few difficult in finding a potential company to do our UBS Project work for the subject DAC 2183 Accounting Information System I where the subject were taught by Mr. Noreffendy Mohamed for the November 2012 session.

We  difficulty to find company transaction because the information are private and confidential.  Some of the  Company that we found said that they are not interested to give their business or company transaction to us and some of the other Enterprise Company said that their business or companies transaction are very Private and Confidential (P&C) and can’t be given to outsider. So far our group members are still search for an  Company that will give an approval or permission to uses their business or company transaction to do our UBS Project. The other challenges are transforming those data into relevant and reliable information.they feel later  will get the problem to their company. But they cannot understand our situation it just only for education purpose.Although we have the letter from university still they  are refuse. 

 we find a company that willing to give their 6 month transaction from July 2008 until December 2008. The GK & M TRADING  a transport company that deliver goods to other company. The second challenges are when we key in UBS system the transaction that difficult to follow the UBS TERMS. Because before we key in UBS system.we must do the journal and ledger for 6 month transaction. After that we must find out correct source of document to attach. 


we also difficult to communicate with the owner to find out the operation activity of the business. because the owner very busy with his business for an outstation.finally we finish our project based on lecture by MR.Noreffendy Mohamed.
