Now worries - if I can get done what I need to and also help with testing, I'll be happy. I have a few years of back accounts to deal with (same organisation) but I will consult with you privately about the best approach etc. While this (non-profit) still does not have a high transaction rate - we hope it will in the future, so I would like to have a complete set of accounts by the time that starts happening.
