when we set up powerchurch at the beginning of 2017 we set up an 02 designated account in our 01 income accounts. We realized our error and moved the balance to our 02 designated accounts. This erroneous 01 income account still shows in our list of 01 income accounts. we have never used it. So it ba...

Re: Vanco Payment Mobile App - Import Transactions

update to my post. I did find out from Vanco that they match on email address. So if one is entered through the mobile app and it matches an online account with them they will retrieve the member id from that online account already set up. So I think I can just not enter email addresses for the mobi...

Re: Vanco Payment Mobile App - Import Transactions

Thanks for your repsonses. I am a little bit confused though from what I thought would work. I have numbered my contribution fund so that I could exclude it if necessary. I don't feel I want to keep track of non-deductible 'donations' and I don't really consider this a donation anyway. I will not be...

Re: cash transaction - how to record

I don't think I have a petty cash account. We have never had the need arise since I have been treasurer so I would need to set that up. It may have been set up initially with our consultant and I have never used it so I don't recall seeing it in my COA. I guess that is an asset account and it would ...

Re: 1099 vs W2 for pastor

Thanks.
Can I set him up as an employee and not take any taxes out?
This is so confusing to me because up until now he had been paid like a contractor without any tax withholding.
Also do you know if the church's Federal Employer Id Number is the same as the Maryland tax id number?
