QuickBooks helps organizations manage essential financial tasks like paying bills, creating invoices, producing reports, and tracking expenses, contributions, and payments.
QuickBooks Premier 2011, for the small-to-medium-sized organization, allows the installer to select from a general business version or five industry-specific versions of QuickBooks Premier 2011: Nonprofit Edition, Contractor Edition, Manufacturing & Wholesale Edition, Professional Services Edition, and Retail Edition. Each version includes the features of QuickBooks Premier 2011, plus modifications specifically designed to meet the finance and accounting needs of a particular industry. For example, the Nonprofit Edition provides custom features that nonprofit organizations need for grant tracking, budget creation, financial reporting, and IRS Form 990 data.
Features such as payroll management are available directly from Intuit for additional fees.
Other capabilities include the following:
- Allows invoices and statements to be emailed directly within QuickBooks from an Outlook or webmail (Gmail, Yahoo!, or Hotmail) account with enhanced email integration. (Note: additional software is needed to use this feature with Outlook. See System Requirements.)
- Creates budgets based on actual fundraising and expense data in QuickBooks and compares actual income and expenses to budgeted amounts.
- Provides business planning and analysis tools, such as the Statement of Financial Income & Expense, to help evaluate the organization's business, improve financial management, and plan for the future.
- Organizes business information such as tax, general company, donor, vendor, and employee information in separate centers while allowing an accountant to simultaneously work on the system.
- Provides a Nonprofit Edition chart of accounts that categorizes and views expenses the way IRS Form 990 requires and also provides reports that show how much money has been contributed and spent to date by donor or by grant.
Includes One User License
This product includes one user license. Each user must have both a user license and a separate installation of the same edition and version of QuickBooks. The maximum number of users that can work with the organization's data at the same time is five.
Compatibility of QuickBooks Data with QuickBooks Versions
Once an organization's data is updated to a new version of QuickBooks, it can't be opened in the previous version. If an organization wants to allow an outside accountant to work with its data, the accountant must have an edition of QuickBooks released in the same year as the organization's.
