Draft for Consultation June 2013 |
The National Standard Chart of Accounts (NSCOA) provides a common approach to the capture of accounting information by community organisations for use by the nonprofits, government agencies and other interested parties. It is a tool designed primarily for small to medium nonprofits which typically do not have an accounting department or a sophisticated accounting system. Larger nonprofits have adopted the data dictionary component of the standard chart of accounts aligning their systems to comply with a consistency across the sector. The National Standard Chart of Accounts (NSCOA) is a data entry tool and data dictionary. It is NOT a reporting tool.

The National Standard Chart of Accounts has been developed over time with various implementation strategies. Please note that certain State based legislation applies for certain entities eg incorporated associations, cooperatives whereas companies limited by guarantee are covered by Federal legislation. The State based legislation is the main difference between the resources.
