About business

This application is a web accounting application where the customers upload invoices and the accountant processes these invoices and uploads the balance sheet. The customer has a company and he can not upload documents (PDF files) after day 20 of each month without the accept of the accountant. Also he can not upload documents in system if he forgot to pay the previous month.

The application comes with two sections: Customer and Admin (Accountant). Each section has a separate authentication mechanism. The authentication mechanism for Customer is reinforced with Google reCAPCTCHA and the authentication mechanism for Admin is reinforced with an IP White List.

The application comes with support for English and Romanian languages.
