No separate non-profit version of GnuCash
Before you start using GnuCash for a non-profit, you should know that there is no GnuCash version specially created for non-profits. We are going to stretch the business features of GnuCash to suit the needs of a non-profit. As a result of this, you may find the following issues, among others.
When you create transactions or run reports, you may find that 'Donors' are called 'Customers', 'Pledges' are called 'Invoices', and other such anomalies.
Also, as we said earlier, GnuCash is suitable for small businesses. By the same token, GnuCash may suit the needs of only small non-profits. Walk through the steps we have outlined and satisfy yourself that it will meet your needs, before taking the plunge.
