# Integrated GL Options

DonorWise is designed to integrate with a general ledger software to ensure more consistent accounting and reporting.

Integrated general ledger | Select an integrated general ledger, if any.
Configure | Define the data entry order of GL transactions.
Verify | Confirms connection with your integrated General ledger.
The following options will be automatically supplied by your General ledger if it is integrated. You only need to define these if you are not using an Integrated General ledger.
Beginning month of fiscal year | Select the month in which your fiscal year begins. Fiscal year is assumed to start on the first day of the selected month.
Use the year of first period | Defines whether the fiscal year number uses the beginning or ending year.
Fiscal period example | Shows how a fiscal period will appear in the database.
General ledger allows back post | Because donation adjustments can occur in prior periods, it's important that the integrated general ledger support such past adjustments.
General ledger supports Unicode | Unicode (multi-byte characters) is a text format that allows for multi-lingual data entry. Do not select this option if your General ledger does not support Unicode.
Enforce valid GL Account/RC combos | Combinations are set up on the <GL Accounts and RCs> screen.
