Solomon

Theatre Manager will create a Microsoft Excel file that can be used to import into Solomon Accounting Software. Solomon's ability to create unique company names, accounts, projects, tasks, and sub accounts for each GL account requires the setup of Theatre Manager's External Account field to be set in a specific format to accomodate the various aspects of the Solomon export file, prior to performing the first export.
