Web-based technologies make for smooth marriage

Nonprofits using Web-based software from eTapestry and Intacct can now easily export financial information from their donor database to their accounting database.

"The integration of the Intacct and eTapestry products provides nonprofits with the first Web-based integrated donor and financial management solution," said Intacct CEO David C. Thomas. "Nonprofit managers can now conveniently access their donor and accounting information at any time or in any place they need the information and produce reports instantly."

Because the eTapestry and Intacct solutions were designed to function through the Internet, nonprofits can easily customize the level of complexity that they need. "Large accounting offices, independent accountants and even small organizations can derive great benefit from the integrated solution," said eTapestry CEO Jay Love.

eTapestry and Intacct also provide multiple users immediate access to real-time versions of their data.

"Our customers don't have to wait to get the updated information," Love said. "It's right there."

Users of eTapestry and Intacct can query items stored in eTapestry, such as transactions involving donations or new funds, and easily transfer that information into Intacct. The data is transferred with a special, integrated export feature that cuts the typical number of export steps in half.
