Hi:
How do you create a department/ program under each fund in power church?
For example I may have mission fund, education fund and mortgadge fund. It also have Evangelical department, Education department and Finance department.
If I want to capture each activity (transaction) by fund, department and account without creating new accounts for each fund
For example. I may pay salary for personnel under each department (Evangelical and education)
I want the account structure to be
Fund- Department(program) Detail Account
01- (Mission Fund) 2000- (Evangelical Department) Salary (5110)
02 (Education Fund) 3000- (Education Department) Salary (5110)
I want to use the same expense accounts for different departments and funds without creating separate salary account for each fund?

I'm assuming you're talking about the setup in Funds Accounting ??yaregal wrote:Hi:

You can do that .. do you have individual checking accounts for each fund?
Not sure how you're tracking the department number under Funds Accounting however.
Could you explain how you have your current Chart of Accounts setup ??

Re: Create department/ program
Hi
The current chart of account is simple with general revenue and expense accounts set up. We have just a general fund and there are different departments (commitee) that work for the church (evangelical commitee, finance commitee, building committe). The income and expenses associated with each commitee activity are just put into the general fund. We want to capture each income and expense associated for each fund separately. I know we can set up separate fund accounts.
My question is. If I want to create the account structure as
Fund- department (committe)- account. can I do that.
I am new to power church. I work with another accounting software and you can set up a Fund. Then you can set up multile departments. You can use the combination of the Fund and the depatment number to book expenses or revenues using the same account.
For example. If I have an education fund (02) and I have two departments (education department-3000) and (finance department-4000). salary expense (Acct # 5000-001) paid to each department associated with the education fund could be booked as follows
Fund 02 (education Fund)
Department 3000 Account #5000-001 $3,000
Department 4000 Account #5000-001 $5,000
If I want to run the total salay expenses of the church by department, I will use that account and run all department expenses.
Can this be done in power church?
