  • Grants compliance was easier with granular expense tracking, board meeting financial reporting done automatically, and donor management with improved invoicing and receipt capabilities for program fees.
  • The financial reporting still allows to revert to legacy (classic) at this time, the new reporting and bank feed are hard to read, report formatting changed so it no longer works with existing templates.
