Thank you. You're right the dates and amounts wouldn't line up. I will enter the online contributions, but not update in fund accounting. Then, enter the transaction from online giving, using the date and amount that they actually deposited into the church account. How do I show the online fees with...

I'm sure that would cause questions. Well, I haven't entered anything yet. We are looking to roll this App out this weekend and I wanted to find out what the best practice would be and the simplest way to accomplish it (I'm keeping the books, certainly not a book keeper) I saw the above post and I w...

Hello Neil, My questions is in reference to this post. Out of necessity, COVID-19, we are getting a crash course in on-line giving. We chose Givelify. I am using PChurch 11.5. You said when posting to funds accounting, debit (show) the Vendor Fees and reduce the deposited amount under the right side...

Hi Neil, Yes MCR => Medicare. I'm not using the create accounts payable entries to create invoices for the taxes. What I have been doing is entering the transaction in Fund Accounting for Fed and State. The taxes are paid to IRS by EFTPS and the State by bank draft. When I create the entry I think t...

Hi, I'm using Powerchurch 11.5 on a PC. Under liabilities I have an ever increasing total for MCR & SS. I am wondering if their is something that was set up incorrectly or incompletely that would connect the account with the monthly payments being sent out? I am not an accountant, but I am trying to...

Thanks so much, it worked like a charm!!

Hello. I am using Powerchurch 11.5. We purchase Sunday school material from a bookstore who allows us to return unused books for a credit to the account. The next quarter the credit shows up and reduces the total bill by say $10. The problem is that we also purchase other material from the same comp...

"If you just want to show the whole thing as wiping out the asset and not showing any income, eliminate the depreciation and gain(income) accounts." I have apparently misunderstood the above instructions. I do have an equipment asset account but I don't have any itemized equipment listed for it. Do ...

On the same note: we had a loss due to a pipe that burst in the church kitchen. The damage was assessed at $2200. We had a deductible of $1000. The check is for $1200. How would I show this in Powerchurch and as it relates to the Asset account?

Hi again. The sell of the lawn mower took place, but the payment was in 2 parts. Two different months. When I received the money I debited the checking account and credited the unrestricted income account both times. The purchase price was $1500. It was sold for $350. I don't want to use depreciatio...

Ok. Thanks so much for the information. I really appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share. Have a great day!

Yes. I withheld taxes and housing allowance from that check as well, and it was all a part of 2016. I'm planning to do W2s to reflect that; I just saw a flurry of communication on a tax website regarding special considerations when a year has 53 weeks and wanted to be sure I was doing the right thin...

Hi! Yes Neil it is for salaried employees. And the pay period is from Sat to Friday which crossed into the year 2016. 2015 had 52 Fridays accounted for and that showed on the W2 for 2015. What I'm looking at in 2016 is a W2 that includes an extra week of income, taxes, and housing for the Pastor as ...

Hi! I'm using Power church 11.55. The year 2016 started on a Friday which was a pay date(weekly) for us. This makes 53 pay dates in the year. It increases the annual salaries and the housing allowance that is set. I don't think this has happened in about 6 years, which was before I started. Is there...

Hi! I'm using Powerchurch 11.55. The church is planning to sell the riding lawnmower. A member of the church is interested in buying it. Should I use the Accounts Receivable module or just enter it as a transaction in Fund Accounting; by Crediting checking acct and Debiting Equipment Asset account? ...
