Popular business accounting package QuickBooks is now available in a version customised specifically for UK charities and not-for-profits.

The new not-for-profit edition of Quickbooks is just one of several customised editions for specific sectors, including consulting, retail, property management, and contracting. You select which version you want when you install the software, called “Quickbooks Customised Editions”.

QuickBooks is described by its publisher Intuit as “the world’s best-selling bookkeeping and business management software.” The new not-for-profit edition adds to its standard offering a range of customised facilities for charities including:

• tracking pledges and donations
  
• managing more than one fund or charity
  
• producing a balance sheet for the Charity Commission
  
• integrated e-mail merge for direct mail
  

If you take out the additional credit card payment service you will be able to accept and process credit card payments and donations.

“Quickbooks Customised Editions” costs £199.99 but Amazon.co.uk is currently selling it for 10% off at £179.99.
