Frequently asked questions
What is fund accounting and how is it different from regular accounting?
Fund accounting tracks money by its designated purpose, not just by income and expense. Every dollar is assigned to a fund type: restricted or unrestricted. You always know exactly where each dollar came from and where it can go. For nonprofits managing donor restrictions, grants, and board-designated money, this structure is what makes accurate stewardship and reporting possible.
How does Aplos handle restricted funds and grant tracking?
Aplos tracks every restricted dollar separately, with clear records for donors and auditors. You can create dedicated funds for grants, programs, or any restricted purpose, then use tags for even more granular tracking. Fund and program organization makes stewardship reports straightforward, so you can show exactly how restricted money was received and spent.
What kind of reports can I run by fund or tag?
Aplos lets you run fund-level reports including Income Statements by fund, Balance Sheets, and budget vs. actuals comparisons. You can drill down by fund or tag to track specific grants, programs, or projects. Reports are built to nonprofit accounting standards and give leadership the financial visibility they need without manual exports or spreadsheet work.
How does Aplos connect to fundraising tools and payment processors?
Aplos connects with Raisely so fundraising activity flows directly into your fund accounting with accurate fund allocation. Donor records in Keela stay in sync with what's in your books. Payment and donation data flows in automatically, removing the need to copy numbers across systems.
How long does implementation take?
Implementation follows five steps: setting up your fund structure, connecting your bank and importing transactions, bringing in donor data, building reporting templates, and a final reconciliation before going live. The timeline varies by organization size and data complexity.
Does Aplos work for churches as well as nonprofits?
Yes. Aplos is built for both nonprofits and churches. The fund accounting structure handles restricted and unrestricted money the same way faith-based organizations manage designated giving, ministry funds, and board reporting.
