Assess the likely fit and trade-offs

Directory assessment

Fund Filer is a specialised Gift Aid-management tool for churches and charities, not a general ledger or all-in-one church-management system. Its narrow focus may suit a church that wants to improve Gift Aid and GASDS administration without replacing its existing accounts package. The treasurer should test current donor imports, export options and hand-over process in the trial.
