Accounting integration improvements

Michael McAndrew:
Hey there,

I have a question about accounting integration improvements.

A client is thinking about changing their accounting software in the next 1 to 2 years.  They are wondering if there is anything in the pipeline in terms of CiviCRM accounting integration improvements that would affect their choice of accounting package. 

I've spent 15-20 mins skimming the wiki pages, blog posts, etc. and discussion of specific vendors seems to be not that present and I am presuming that the work is all about general improvements that make civicrm more accountant friendly.

does that sound right? is there anything specific you would say to a client (at the strategic level) that asked you about what was on the horizon for civiaccounts.

Thanks!
Michael

petednz:
just a heads up that in that timeframe we should have some good integration working with xero if you want to suggest they check that out.

Michael McAndrew:
Joe Murray says

"We will definitely be supporting a format to get transactional information into QuickBooks and AccPac. I believe the former requires us to output .iif format in addition to the current .csv format that is adequate for AccPac. I think a number of other packages support .iif format."

Michael McAndrew:
Hey Peter,

Just to clarify, is that xero work seperate or part of the accounting integration improvements work?

petednz:
separate to but presumably should be able to be improved after the accounts work is done
