Our financial secretary has always taken offering envelopes home to record them. She does not use Power Church. I would like to start getting contribution info into Power Church.

Is there any way that she could log into POWER CHURCH from home and record contributions?

There's no built-in way to do this directly. Many churches have their Contributions entry folks enter their data at home, make a Contributions-only backup, then restore that at the church so they can then post. Another option would be to post Contributions to a diskette, and use that to import the transactions into the church computer. That wouldn't update the Contributions module though.

Some of our more industrious users have set up Terminal Services on their Windows servers to allow remote access to PowerChurch. That's a pretty hefty process, however, and not something that we support.
