I am confused. Does Power Church (PC) work with SImpletexting (ST) or not. It appears that we cannot test it out without paying for ST. Assuming it does work, what information is PC able to pass to ST (e.g. first / last name, status, dates, etc.). I do not want to have to maintain data in 2 differe...

tena20719 - I received the same error just now trying to efile our W2s. We're using PowerChurch Online 15. Get the same error while trying to click on and link to PowerChurch Support from within Help also. Obviously, this file was missing from the Nov 2025 release. And, when I sign in online to pow...

I forgot to ask. What report will this transaction be on?

Well, it should show up on the I&P report.

So I would have to turn it off for everyone who already has their printed statement (assuming everyone has it enabled, and I suspect almost all do). In this case, I think it would be easier to email 20 or so individually rather than turn off 100 or more (and get them all back on). Thanks for helpin...

Thanks for your reply. The expense for the food came from the ticket sales. So how should I proceed?

OK .. so you paid cash for all the expenses, and have cash remaining? I would deposit that as I listed above as miscellaneous income.

We sold tickets for a Member prayer breakfast all for expenses no part of it a donation or ads. Where would I record that in Power Church? Would that be under a new contribution fund? Not a contribution, you would have used the Accounts Receivable module to record the sale and payment. Since it app...

We've never emailed contribution statements before, but the increased cost of postage has us rethinking it for the 2025 statements. We already printed the statements and have personally handed out as many as possible (and will try to hand out more next Sunday). The goal is to take the paper stateme...

The Methodist church (globally) provides group term life insurance to pastors, and the cost of that coverage must be reported as additional income for the pastor. It is NOT an expense of our church. I cannot find a way to add income to him without it being an expense to us. Will I just have to manu...

Is anyone having problems printing checks after this maint release? We can no longer print without checks printing on both sides of the paper. PC+ reports work fine. This was not a problem until the maint release. I've not seen this, make sure that before you start PCPlus, that the main settings fo...

Our pastor gets to claim an income deduction that is called "housing exclusion" which goes into Box 14 on the W-2. However, I cannot figure out how to have this calculate into his taxable wages for the 941 report. It is not real money paid to anyone... just a reduction of reportable income. So far ...

I've just printed the 2025 contribution statements for our congregation. I've notice that the people who have passed away are still showing up on the statements even though I have changed them in the Family & Personal Profile. For example, Mr. & Mrs XYZ is still printing that way even though Mrs XY...

Good Morning, I'll start by saying this program was set up over 10 years ago and I have just been following through it. We had a board member who decided to look at our in and out then compare it to what was actually in the bank and declared that we were missing expenses (the money is not showing i...

When you align the text of a 1099 and print a test form, does the program save the alignment for the year? Does it lose it when you close PC+? Every year I have to lower the payer box about an eighth of an inch and the whole form down a thirty second of an inch. I don't believe it saves it ... and ...

We would like to automatically refresh the MDB (Utilities/Export to Access MDB) every night. Is there a standalone utility (similar to the reindex utility) available for that?? I cannot find any documentation that states this can be done as the routine that does this is spawned off the main program...

Hi, I was trying to electronically file my 941 and when I pressed the button I received the following error: IdsRCli.exe - System Error The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem. I am using the online version so there isn't a ...
