Can anyone recommend a good package of accounting policies/procedures?

We use the manual that has everything that you need and is updated for all the new laws it has over 600 pages of information - I would definately recommend it we bought it here.

You may want to look at these procedures to get some ideas from Duke University:

General Accounting Procedures

We use the same manual as Triton it is hard to find good Accounting policies/manuals I think because things change so frequently but we also have been happy with the manual although we just started to use it so we will see.

I looked at the Accounting Package used by Triton and Salisbury and it looked a little overwhelming for a small business - was it easy to adopt in your business?

Actually one of the reasons why we bought the package was because it was because we did not have much experience in the area our "CFO" had a financial degree but is just out of college we used this to jump start our Financial Department and it worked out really well because you can just customize the Biz Manual to your practice. I have to say though given our limited experience we use most of them as is. Hope this answers your question.
