What The Elements Mean

Contact

To choose the contact to assign the donation to, begin typing in letters. After four (4) letters have been entered, suggestions will appear in the dropdown menu. Hover over the contact with your mouse, highlighting it in blue, and click to select.

If the contact has an email address on file, you will see a checkbox appear with an option to send the donor an email at the time of entry. This box is checked by default. You will see an option to add an email to this contact to send a receipt if the contact does not have one on file.
