Accounting software for nonprofits
Nonprofit accounting software has to show a board, funders and auditors where every dollar went. Adopt keeps the books and monthly close current against your own chart of accounts, and your team approves every entry.
How nonprofits handle this today.
Money comes with conditions. Grants and restricted gifts have to be tracked apart from general funds.
A small finance team. One person, or a volunteer treasurer, often keeps the books between other duties.
The board wants statements. Reports are due at every meeting, whether or not the month is reconciled.
Audits ask for support. Every balance needs a trail back to the transaction behind it.
