a few issues

I've got a few issues, which I need some direction for. I'm a new accountant (well, still in school, but working on it) and I've taken over the books for my church. I'm still trying to figure out the setup for 2006.

After going through the entire setup process, I get some accounts that I don't really want showing on the books such as the American deductions. How can I either change these deductions to the proper Canadian deductions or delete the inproper accounts altogether? As well, there are a lot of salary accounts that are automatically created, which I have no use for. We have our own system and we don't need all these accounts to show up. There are always a bunch of accounts that we can't delete, and this to me doesn't really promote flexibility that we as a church need to properly use this software.

Thanks to anyone who can help me out here.

When you set up your accounting using the Accounting Setup Assistant, the program is going to set up a pretty complete chart of accounts for you. If you don't want or need all that it includes, you can just delete the accounts you don't want. The only problem you may run into is if you try to delete the accounts associated with the sample Payroll entries. You'll have to remove those from Payroll first.
