Pledges are PROMISES of Donations of MONEY (Cash, Check, Credit Card) at some future date. The actual act of making good on a Pledge is ALWAYS recorded using the POS Module. However, the procedure to record a Pledge from a customer is always the same, and DOES NOT involve a transaction. Find the Customer's Record using the Customer Search:
Click on the DONATIONS tab to see the customer's charitable giving history:
In this example above, we note that this customer has ALREADY PLEDGED to cough up $50.00 in the future, and has ALREADY donated LABOR in the past. Click on the RECORD A NEW PLEDGE button to bring up the Pledge Record screen:
Our customer Gary Adams has generously promised to donate $250.00 no later than
7/31/2009 to go towards the GENERAL FUNDRAISING Campaign. Since this is a
NEW Pledge, it has NOT been honored yet, and there is no transaction record to
go along with it.
