Hi Brian, I'd like to say I'm thrilled with responses you've gotten
from Cédric and Nicolas on your question. I've starting reading this
list because I'm considering moving from OpenERP for our customers and
want to get a feel for the software and community, and I'm already
pleased and impressed.

Can I suggest you might want to track the values of your sales and
donations? If the organization is not already tax-exempt under your
country's laws, it may be a future consideration. Retaining a record
of donations (either through a sale or a purchase) might be useful. I
can see where it might be good to track these in product costs, or
analytic accounts (does Tryton do analytic accounts?)

I'd be interested in hearing more about your application if you're
willing to share how you are using Tryton in a non-profit.
