We've been using Quickbooks and it as met our needs. At first we had to
run Softwindows to run it on our Mac. Then when they made the Mac
version capable of saving a Windows version of our data, we switched to
the Mac version. We have been happy with it (QuickBooks Pro 6), but as
I said earlier our Account wanted us to upgrade. I just want to be
aware of any problems and ways to avoid them before I install it.

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.

I recently purchased QuickBooks Pro Mac 2007 for our small non-profit because
our account kept telling us that we need to upgrade and we were able to get it
through TechSoup at a very reasonable price. I have not installed yet. I
recall that there was a thread on the list not that long ago about a problem
caused, I believe, by QuickBooks update feature. Has this problem been solved?
Could I just turn off the update feature? What advice/warnings do you have
before I install it?
Thanks,
Steve
