Dear Michael, Thanks for the piece of advice. I'm basically new to the management accounting world. Please do not take this as if I am new to finance and accounting (But my excel skills are resticted and have no knowledge of access yet). That said, can you guide me to some tutorials etc or books from where I can jump start into this huge ocean.
Kindest Regards.
