Accounting, Payroll & Pension Issues - accounting software for small not-for-profit


Expert: Ed McFarland - 11/11/2007

Question
I am planning to do accounting work for small not-for-profit as contractor.  Could you recommend what software I should use?

Answer
Start with Excel until you know what you are dealing with.

For most small organizations Quickbooks will do fine.

The other suggestion is once you know what you have, call a similar sized nonprofit and talk with their CFO, Controller type and ask them.

Good luck
