I've been told that QuickBooks isn't capable of tracking funding sources, i.e. automatically ensuring that funds received (e.g., a grant) for a specific purpose are being spent for that purpose. I don't use Quickbooks, and it may be possible to add additional fields to the "stock" accounting database that would accomplish this. Such additional fields may require a higher level of training than most folks get.
