Enhanced Fund Accounting vs FUNDVIEW

Enhanced Fund Accounting is Windows accounting and financial-management software for municipalities and nonprofit organizations. Its modules cover accounts payable and receivable, budget preparation, disbursements and receipts, fixed assets, general ledger, payroll, and purchase orders. The program runs on Windows 10/11 with recent Microsoft Office and Access versions, follows the accounting principles prescribed by the Office of the State Comptroller, and is compatible with the Uniform System of Accounts. Accounts payable handles multiple cash and checking accounts, recurring payables, invoice selection, and void audit trails. Accounts receivable tracks customers and payment history, applies payments to invoices, and creates related journal entries. Optional water and sewer billing connects to the general ledger. Budgeting integrates with the ledger and exports municipal numbers to a prepared Excel spreadsheet. Payroll includes direct deposit and New York State reporting. Purchasing covers ordering through invoicing, while fixed assets calculate straight-line depreciation. Pricing is quoted for the full suite or individual modules.
