Re: Chart of Accounts
One principle that helped us - regarding account numbering for expenses - was being aware of the IRS categorization of non-profit expenses. (I apologize if this has already been discussed here).
1) Program Service Expenses (we used 6000 to 6999 for quick identification)
2) Management and General Expenses (we used 7000 to 7999)
3) Fundraising Expenses (we used 8000 to 8999)
Hope that might help.
