Hello,
I'm new to Power church as of Feb 27th I entered and posted contributions from Feb 26th into Contributions, and later posted them from FA, but only two are appearing in any of my FA reports (Activity Report). The two that are showing are the "undesignated contributor" / "CASH" contributions. But that shouldn't affect the posting since CASH is assigned an envelope number just as other contribdutors???
Thanks
The information that gets posted in Fund Accounting is a summary of all the contributions.
The detail of all the actual envelope numbers and amounts stays in the Contributions module.
I'm not sure what you are seeing. Did you run an Account Activity on one particular account, or ALL accounts?
Also, check in your Contributions Module under Contributions / Setup / Maintain List of Contribution Funds
Click on the ACCOUNTING tab on each of the Contribution Funds that you created and make sure you have two Fund Accounting account numbers assigned for each of your Contribution Funds.
Usually they are a checking account, and an income account.

Thanks, John, for your reply. I ran an activity on all accounts for Feb. The General fund ( bank acount -credit; income -debit) shows only one entry int the contributions (journal) for the Feb 26th date. It doesn't show the sum of all the contributions, only the amount that was entered under the cash envelope number, but it (cash) is entered the same way the other contributions are entererd, so I'm not understanding why the sum of the other contributions isn't listed.
I'm going to guess it's because you don't have Fund Accounting accounts assigned under the ACCOUNTING tab on the other Contribution Funds in contributions.
Can you confirm if you do or don't?

Next, in Fund Accounting, I would run an account activity report on 01-4100-000.
Then, for other Contribution funds that you used, do the same thing. Locate the income account that is assigned to it for Fund Accounting, and run and activity report on that income account.
Let me know if that helps.

In 11 and 11.5, look under Contributions => Setup => View Contributions Audit Log. Version 10.4 and prior will simply have this toward the bottom in the main Contributions menu.
This shows you the events that happen in Contributions. You are looking for an event called Post Contributions. If you click once on any of those entries, it will have some text at the bottom of the screen (above the blue letters) that give you more information on that event. It will say, Contributions posted to Fund Accounting or to Contributions only. Two possibilities are that it was posted to update Contributions only or it was posted into an accounting month that is different than the one you are expecting (posted to January or March and you are expecting February).
