Veterans Software Services
The VSS QM Books programs are designed around the
basic accounting outline of the VFW organization. This type of accounting is
known as fund accounting. It ensures that required financial reports are
generated in the format set forth by your organization and can be quickly
generated.
Understanding fund accounting, stated simply, is that all money received and or
disbursed is designated for a specific purpose. i.e., sales made in the canteen
are designated to the Post Canteen fund. Admission fees are designated to the
Admission/Application fund and so forth. Generally speaking, all monies received
and or disbursed, which are not specifically earmarked otherwise, would be
credited or debited to the Post General fund. (A general operating fund for
day-to-day operations).
All monies received by the organization can be deposited to one general bank
account or held in several separate bank accounts. However, all monies owned by
the organization must be designated a specific Fund regardless of the physical
bank account they are held in.
It is not necessary to maintain numerous bank accounts in order to separate your
monies into each separate fund. This separation can be done easily on paper to
show the amounts maintained in each separate fund, while all monies are held in
a single account. Transactions made can then be credited or debited to the
appropriate fund when monies are moved to or from your bank account.
In addition to maintaining fund and bank balances, QM Pro software will also
print numerous reports and worksheets along with maintaining your membership
rosters. Click for User Guides and

Contact Rob Weiss at 517 485 9456, email vfwmi@vfwmi.org or the webmaster at vfwmi@att.org and let us know of your interest in renewing your software and the version of your computer operating system (i.e., Windows XP, Vista or Windows7).3.
