Thursday & Friday the finance team from one of the donor organisations came to check that recommendations had been implemented following their previous audit. There was a meeting at the end to discuss the report with about 20 people from AHC present (which seemed to be rather a lot).
After a lot of research I found out how to design a limited number of reports on Intacct , the online accounting system here. At first glance it is an impressive “cloud” accounting system implemented by the treasurer of the umbrella charity Friends Without Borders in New York.
I don't find the Intacct system that user friendly and I haven’t come across anyone knowing of any other organisations using it. (if anyone out there reading this has, please let me know). AHC in Cambodia do not have access to Intacct's functions which makes for a slow and frustrating process here as any queries have to go through New York, which is difficult when there is a 12 hour time difference. I have been looking at ways of doing more in Cambodia so that more information can be accessed here.
