MIP is a great fund-accounting software program.
We have approximately 25 funds that we utilize with MIP. We receive revenue from over 9 different funding sources. We are able to keep each fund separate by year and source. MIP helps us track multiple funds by numbering each fund by year. This process allows us to close out a certain year and start a new one seamlessly.

Abila/MIP as everyday help in non-profit accounting
Again, as mentioned above MIP gives an opportunity differentiate funds and programs and source and it's great. It creates order and understanding in the system as well as helps code, run reports, and analyze data. Our organization definitely achieved this benefit, using MIP from year 2007. At first everybody compared the MIP to QuickBooks and the last one was simpler and more understandable. But learning MIP Fund Accounting through the years, it was obvious that the move to MIP was very right and on time.

Abilia MIP Review
Yes, we have different funding sources for different grants. We are able to track individual [grants] and create easy reports that each funding source requires as well as maintain the overall reporting structure for the entire organization.

Abila - a great segment reporting tool.
Yes MIP has allowed us to do that very effectively. We have over 50 funding sources that needs to be tracked annually. MIP allows us to track the expenses properly in addition to ensuring the reporting is being done in a timely manner. The Accounts Receivable module has made our reconciliation process very efficient especially with our large funding portfolio.

Abila MIP meets my needs!
Yes, our organization has acheived this benefit. There are multiple funds used and all are integrated for across the board financials. Funds can be combined or separated to get a financial picture of either the fund individually, or for the partnership as a whole. This has allowed us to better inform the board when presenting financials.
Yes, we have achieved this benefit. We have our general bank account and four different endowments. We receive various monies each month, whether it be monthly donations from alumni, a one-time gift to one of our endowment funds, a reimbursement transfer from friends overseas, etc. No matter what it is we are tracking--entering payroll each month, tracking our endowment funds, paying bills--it helps us keep everything organized.

Abila MIP
The product has the ability to manage different funds, but the training for how to use that capability is expensive. We use it to some extent, but I feel there is a lot more that we don't know.
MIP is very flexible and can be customized to your specific industry and needs. Would work well for a medium sized non-profit for tracking multiple funds and sources. And any module you buy for MIP was actually developed by them so it doesn't end up a hodge podge mess like other competitors. It has allowed us to customize everything based on our needs from managing funds to sources.
Yes, we have multiple sources of funds within our organization and the benefit is tremendous and now we are able to track these funds. The reporting by fund is intuitive and creates a very seamless process. We are able to create income statements and balance sheets by fund type and use this for making management decisions within our organization.

Complex needs? Abila MIP can do it!!
We have multiple programs and multiple funding sources. We also have multiple sites, many with shared aspects. MIP is able to address these with ease through their distribution codes that we heavily utilize.

Abila MIP fund accounting is a top notch software program - you can't go wrong with MIP!
Our organization has achieved the benefit of managing multiple funds from multiple sources. Currently we have 28 different funds that we manage, with a few more coming down the pike. To date, we've had 118 different funds tracked within our system. Another benefit is having access to customer support. MIP support team is easy to access whether online through the knowledge base, through the system's help feature, or by calling and talking to support staff. MIP makes it easy to access information - if you aren't sure how to do something it is easy to find out how.

Abilia MIP Fund Accounting from an IT manager's perspective
We are currently able to track funds from multiple sources. Our major improvement to the software would be to have better reporting of the customers. The current system does not allow for printing of something as simple as labels, nor the ability to produce an email integration into sending to existing customers.

Abila Accounting for Non-Profits-Awesome!
We are able to track and manage donors and their donations and grants form private and government sources, whether it is to our organization or our Endowment Foundation.

Fund Accounting does what it should - accounts for funds
This has been our primary reason for using MIP. The fact that all transactions can be coded to reflect funding streams, department, etc., makes this reasonably doable.

Fund accounting for Nonprofits
MIP does a great job of managing funds from multiple sources. Every entry can be coded to a funding source, and the program that used the funds. It can also be coded to different locations like branch offices.

Trusty MIP
The software is wonderful for managing different grants and/or sources of revenues and their corresponding expenses.

Newbie's Review
As a non-profit, we receive grant money that has to be tracked very closely. Each grant has its own code so it can be tracked from receipt to use - with the balance remaining easy to retrieve before purchases are made; departments receiving grant funds can get the information they need for budgeting quickly and accurately.
We use it for all accounts payable and accounts receivable and that works great.

What You Should Know About Abila MIP Fund Accounting
We do not use MIP very much for this. We are fortunate in that we don't have multiple funds to manage.

Abila MIP just works
We have achieved this goal by using MIP to keep track of rack grant and the expenditures against it.

Abila - One Stop Shop
We do not have a current need for multiple funds tracking at the current time. It may have been used previously, but since our government funding has changed it is no longer necessary for us. We have gone from primarily Grant funding to Fee for Service funding making the need for multiple funds obsolete.
August 11, 2020
Great product for your accounting
This is MIP's strongest aspect. It's easy to set up multiple funding sources and streamline/customize reporting to meet all the reporting requirements.

review of Abila from a tech standpoint
We have definitely seen this benefit as we are also multi-sourced for funding.
March 15, 2019
We're OK with MIP; it was our only option.
We have 50 sub-funds. Data is pushed over from FR50. It works adequately.

An A/P Accountant Perspective
As an accounts payable accountant, I think that MIP Fund Accounting does allow the ability to manage multiple funds from multiple sources in a time-saving, efficient manner. For A/P purposes, the ability to see what the budget staff recommends in terms of fund coding, which often includes a combination of fund types, by the time the invoice is ready to be paid allows the accounting staff to compare funding sources for the payment.
