It turns out the only difference is the uncleared check from 2003. What was throwing me was in April the last Sunday was also the last day of the month. The financial secretary included the Sunday contributions in the April amount while I hadn't entered it in my physical checkbook yet since it wasn'...

We are on v.9. We have one bank account (checking and savings) divided out amongst six funds. My checkbook balances with the bank statement, both the physical checkbook register (I write manual checks) and the Reconcile Bank Balance in PC+. When I add up all of the checking account balances in the B...

Thanks Sue, I was wondering if that was where those funds might be posted, in the restricted funds, on v9. I was just shy about trying it before I questioned it. You're welcome and I understand completely! It is nerve wracking thinking of making mistakes with the church's accounts even though prett...

Pam, If you are asking about what I think you are we show those as designated funds. When people give money for youth group, food bank, our van etc. Sometimes they are even items that are in the budget but since you can't add money to a budget amount they are new line items in the designated funds. ...

I may be wrong but I don't see why you can't just void the check in accounts payable and enter it again with the correct info. You might need to go back into the check register after you post to show that the check has cleared, since you already had the other check marked as cleared (assuming you di...

We don't use them because they aren't convenient to our current setup. I often have to give out checks on Sunday morning to people who have just given me their receipts that day. Since I'd have to use both it is easier to just have one checkbook and series of checks rather than have two check number...

Useful information. I'll definitely have to look into this. I didn't realize it wouldn't mess things up if I "printed" a check and also did a manual check. Or do you set it up as a "printed" check and just go ahead and write the manual check and not enter it in the manual check option? I'm checking ...

Thanks for the information. I didn't understand that from the manual. Our other option would be a custom report but this would certainly be easier. We don't have a test copy set up by we easily can. As a matter of fact it is a good idea since I am getting ready to order the v.9 upgrade.

Hi, I'm curious what other people do for pay stub's for employees. I'm not sure that is the correct term but I mean that part that comes with your paycheck that shows how much was deducted for social security, medicare etc. The one I get from my employer shows my name, employee number, as well as fi...

I wasn't involved in setting ours up so I'm just guessing here. What version of Windows are you using? When you say they can't see it is it just the shortcut to it they can't see or can they not see it on the C: drive either? If it is not seeing the shortcut it sounds like maybe the shortcut is in y...

Thanks Neil. I figured it would be okay but decided it would be as easy to ask as to give it a try!

Hi,

We are using v. 8.5. I know I can't delete a fund that has activity in it until the end of the fiscal year but is there any problem renaming it? We'd like to rename the pastor's "fringe benefits" fund to "housing allowance" to make it clearer what it is used for.

Thanks Jeff. You answered my unasked question of how to fix it if that was what had happened. Since the check register balanced and we'd already done the W2's by hand we were going to let it lie and just keep a note that there was a problem. But it would be nice to get it correct.

Hi, I just took over as treasurer. When the previous treasurer did a trial print of W2's from PowerChurch we discovered a problem. She was wary of PowerChurch and had been keeping a second set of records in QuickBooks. The values in PowerChurch didn't match those in her system. The values for severa...
