The trial balance is a key element to prepare the IFRS. ----- ### "GMS Operations" — 5.0/5 > **Ashley** | *16 February 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Haven't had any trouble processing transactions through this company and their customer service is GREAT\! > > **Cons**: I wish their website was a bit more user friendly but with a little trial and error, it's manageable to find out the info you need. ----- ### "This is a great software for Non-profits and small governments" — 5.0/5 > **Van** | *9 February 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of setting up and using fund accounting.
