Accounting Tools FAQ

Can Mazlo track multiple projects under one fiscal sponsor?

Absolutely. Fiscal sponsors can create separate checking accounts for each sponsored project, monitor balances independently, and generate project-specific statements without duplicating accounts. Each project’s finances remain transparent to the sponsor and compliant with nonprofit reporting standards.

How does Mazlo integrate with QuickBooks or Sage?

Mazlo connects directly via secure API to sync financial data between systems with the click of a button. Transactions entered in Mazlo, like coded expenses or grant deposits can be pushed instantly in QuickBooks or Sage, complete with class and fund data.

Is Mazlo a full accounting system or an accounting support tool?

Mazlo is a compliance and fund management layer that enhances your existing accounting software. Rather than replacing tools like QuickBooks or Sage, Mazlo adds the nonprofit-specific oversight, tagging, and reporting capabilities those systems lack, making your accounting stack complete without adding complexity.

Does Mazlo prepare fiscal sponsors and nonprofits for audits automatically?

Mazlo maintains a continuous audit trail. Every transaction, receipt, and approval is timestamped and linked to supporting documentation. Before audit season, you can export pre-formatted CSV showing detailed project-level activity, expense documentation, and funding summaries, saving days or even weeks of manual prep. You can also give auditors direct access to view-only accounts so they can find everything they need with a few clicks.

Can Mazlo separate restricted and unrestricted funds?

Yes, Mazlo allows you to create segregated fund accounts to categorizes and track restricted and unrestricted funds at both the project and organizational level. This prevents accidental commingling of funds and ensures that grants, endowments, and donor-restricted dollars are used in line with their intended purpose. You’ll always know which funds can be spent freely and which are earmarked for specific programs.

How does Mazlo help ensure IRS 501(c)(3) compliance?

Mazlo enforces compliance through structured transaction coding, fund restriction tracking, and reports built to IRS standards. Every income and expense entry is tagged by project, purpose, and restriction level. That means when the IRS or your auditor asks for documentation, you can produce a clean audit trail showing exactly how every donation was spent.
