Every Success Story has a Beginning

Accounting has existed for centuries, and bookkeeping has always been a respected profession. In days past, bookkeepers used paper ledgers and filing systems to record transactions, including debits, credits, revenue, and expenses. In the late 1800s, machines began to play a role, and with the invention of computers in the 20th century, accounting was transformed entirely. Adding machines introduced in the 1880s did not have any computer features or storage facilities; nevertheless, they simplified the counting process and were used extensively by accountants and bookkeepers.

In the 1980s, the accounting software available in the market was known as IUS accounting. It was very difficult and rigid to use in view of the low computer literacy level of the users at that time. Mr. Ong See Pay started the International Computer Centre by providing computer courses and dabbling in computer programming in 1983. He has a great vision to make computerized accounting software user-friendly, accessible, and affordable. Since then, he began developing modules like accounts receivable, stock control, general ledger, accounts payable, hire purchase system, and general insurance modules which are basically DOS-based systems. The Disk Operating System (DOS) is an operating system that runs from a disk drive. DOS is a family of disk-based operating systems for International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) PC-compatible computers.

Aplus Software Sdn. Bhd. was established in 1998 through the energy and drive of the founder, Mr. Ong, and successfully consolidated all the modules into a comprehensive accounting module that incorporates the general ledger, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and stock control that is easy to use without having a strong accounting background. Over the years, our in-house developed software portfolio has grown to meet the ever-changing business needs and technological advancement.
