Who it is for

Whatever the size of your organisation, the same three questions keep coming up: where did the money go, can we spend this, and can we prove it.

What changes for each person

  • The finance officerReceipts, bills and payments are entered once. Approvals come to one place and the bank mostly matches itself, so the month closes against a checklist.
  • The programme managerYou can see what is left on your grant, ask for purchases and advances yourself, and stop waiting for finance to tell you the balance.
  • The executive directorCash, grants and the things waiting for your decision are on one screen, and a board pack is ready when the board meets.
  • The board and the treasurerBudget against actual and restricted funds come from the books, not from a document someone assembled the night before.
  • Field and project staffYou can ask for an advance, account for it and claim expenses, and see where each request has got to.
  • The auditorEvery entry links to its approval and its documents, and a pack of statements and listings can be produced at once.

And for your kind of organisation

  • A small community groupOne fund, one bank account and a few people. You get clean books, receipts, a simple monthly close and a report for your members or funder. Nothing you do not use gets in the way.
  • An NGO with several donorsEach grant has its own budget and reporting calendar. Staff costs are split across grants, and every donor gets their report in the layout they ask for.
  • A network or consortiumPartners and programmes can be reported together while each organisation's records stay private from the others. Bigger arrangements are agreed on the Enterprise plan.
