I am not familar with how the program handles pledges. However there are 53 Sundays in 2006. That could play a huge part. Back in about 1988, we had a fellow church member write commands in a DOS program called Q & A to allows us to keep track of contributions. It was a great help as it automated ou...

Is there a way to change the margins on the contribution reports that are mailed to members? We do not have pre-printed forms, we just use the computer default to generate the report. We send the reports in a #10 windows envelope. If I fold the paper in exact thirds, the members address label is too...

With version 9, as the system admin I can assign who can do backups, restores, etc. I have assigned the secretary to be able to do backups, but she is not able to do restores. It was my choice to assign in this fashion. When I go to the utilities tab, and select backup (I am signing in with her user...

We use the Power Church program to do a data export and upload the file to National Envelope Service. I have noticed that with a member who has an alternate address of Sept 2004 to April 2005, it is using the primary address in the data export file. Is there a way to get the current alternate addres...

Just wondering with the ability to email contribution statements in version 9, is the option available to not print statements for those who have statements emailed to them?

I have done reindex at church computer. Data still missing from those 3 weeks. Any other suggestions?

I am doing a data backup weekly from the church computer onto a floppy disk. I then restore that disk to the program on my laptop I keep at home. I am noticing that the program copy running on my laptop does not have the last 3 weeks of giving data. The church computer has not had a reindex done for...

As you can see from the number of replies to this original question, there is plenty of interest in having the unposted weekly contributions being able to print a report in ABC order. Anyone who has the task of entering weekly contributions knows things don't always go smoothly with data entry and m...

I am just finding out that our new secretary deleted several folks who have moved out of the community in the last several weeks. No longer am I able to pull up an individual contribution report for those folks as it cannot find the envelope number. If I reenter the old name and envelope number, wil...

As you can see there is some interest in having reports available in this fashion. Would might cost be? Is there any other way to get the reports?

I have seen that you encourage folks to send their ideas to the wish list folks for their consideration. I think it would be fantastic if all who visit the bulletin board could see the wish lists or suggestions others have provided so that you as developers of software could get additional feedback ...

I am most interested in being able to print the weekly unposted contribution reports in alphabetical order rather than order entry or envelope number. When the money pile does not equal the cotributions entered, we have to find out why. It takes extra time since the report is printed in envelope ord...
