Business port

Hi all,

I have been rummaging through ports wondering if there might be
a utility or couple of utilities to handle bookkeeping for a
small membership organization.

I know little of accounting and such, so don't know how to
interpret the scanty pkg-descr tidbits that accompany the ports.
So, some amplification would be helpful.

It would need to keep records for about 500 members (say under 1000
for good measure - more is, of course OK), including membership, 
participation and official responsibilities (such as board oficer, etc).   
It would also need to keep accounts, regular receipts from members, 
non-members, services and payouts for expenses and also remissions to 
an umbrella organization.   The ability to generate regular reports for 
the membership, plus year-end reports for tax purposes would be important.
The ability to cut checks and keep a record would be a significant plus.

So, does anyone know of something good along this line in the open
source freeware world that would run on FreeBSD - whether currently
in the ports or not?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  

Thank you for any useful information you can provide.
