Layout

  • Sort Index
    Donations are sorted by this field, and then by value. Using this field will allow you to force a specific ordering.

    The higher the Sort Index value, the sooner in the list the donor will appear. To insert a donor at the beginning of the list you would use a value greater than all other sort index values being used.

Save Donation

When all details have been entered for the Donation, click the Save Donation button in the Actions sidebar to record it.

All information can be edited after the Donation has been saved. These types of Donations are shown apart from Items on the Receipt tab of the Donor record.
