Topic: FA NGO Set UP Assistance

Hi there,

We are a small NGO trying to use FrontAccounting as our Accounting Software.

How can we convert/edit the "Profit and loss Account" into an "Income and Expenditure" report.

How do we also generate individual project income & expenditure reports(with budget inputs)

Is there a guide on how we can set up FA for this Purpose?

Also is there an NGO theme addon or extension to enable FA Setup to achieve this purpose

Please advice

Michael

Hi Michael,
if you have your own installation of FA you need to edit report titles in the source code (if I understand you correctly).
For project reporting - you may want to use dimensions: https://frontaccounting.com/fawiki/index.php?n=Help.Dimensions

Re: FA NGO Set UP Assistance

Hi Mariusz,

Thanks for for the reply and guidance.

I am a newbie to editing FA and just loaded FA on our website using simplescript on cpanel in our hosting account.

Please give me a step by step guide(sorry for my ignorance!) on how to edit report titles in the source code on the cpanel( am assuming it must be in a file somewhere on the cpanel)

Do I need to download some program to help me edit or is it just looking for the words" Profit and Loss" and replacing with "Income and Expenditure"

Please advice.

Michael
