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.

Thanks,

Phil.
