Re: Adding Outstanding Checks after completing

Hi, So we switched over from Simply Accounting, and I had printed out my outstanding checks from SAGE to put into the setup assistant. However, Simply Accounting didn't show the payroll checks, and now I have completed the setup (though I haven't posted any transactions/payroll) and I have just not...

When I go to the computer I want to network to the host computer…..when I find the correct computer and double click on it, it asks for the computer ...

Re: Direct Deposit setup

. I guess you missed the part where the OP said she didn't want to do an ACH, as its wasn't worth the money. So my suggestion will work for what she wants to do. That is not what I read, I saw that the OP has ability to do ACH, just not worth the API/upload of the direct deposit file? Perhaps I mis...

Re: Direct Deposit setup

I am OP and I just don't want to do a file upload or API (third party), just want to pay about 5 checks monthly thru Direct Deposit. I saw that I can go onto my bank website and enter the employee's account info and amount and date and they charge me $1 for the ACH and that's it. It seems like I ca...

Re: Direct Deposit setup

Hi, We have only 6 employees but they have been persistent in asking about Direct Deposit rather than checks. How do we get started with this? I found that I can enter the ACH transaction with my bank (with such a small number of employees, it's not worth an API/upload). What do I need to do with P...

Re: Journal Entry Sources

On the Activity Report, we see different Journal Sources. How is the module determined between JE (Journal Entry) and GE (General Ledger Entry)? When I enter a transaction, it appears as a GE. Thank you, In Powerchurch, the default for when you enter a transaction via Funds Accounting is GE. The re...

Re: Non-monetary donations

During our lack of electricity for three months as a result of a burglary, a member donated 2 generators. Where should we record that donation? There really isn't a place in Powerchurch to do 'non-cash' donations. What I would do is create a letter to the donor, as specified in IRS Pub 1828, on pag...

Re: Employee Loan

This is a first for us. One of our employees asked for a $800 loan to be paid back in weekly installments. Where should the loan payments be reflected in PowerChurch? Thank you in advance for any assistance with this. This is not new income, so you can't claim any income unless you're going to char...

Re: Reconciling Bank Deposits

C You may have to post transactions in fund accounting after they are posted in the contributions module (someone else may verify, as I cannot recall off-hand because we do it via importing contribution files). If you haven't changed the default Post Contribution settings, it does post directly to ...

Re: Non Cash/In Kind Donations

Is there an update planned to address a way to track Non Cash contributions in PowerChurch. We would like to have a convenient way to track ALL costs associated with VBS. Example: for our Vacation Bible School many congregants will donate items to be used for VBS as their way of contributing becaus...

Re: Recording Cash App Fees

We have some members to use cash app for donations. Cash App deduct fees when the money before it is withdrawn. How are we to account for the donations and the fees?

I have the contributions going to temporary restricted funds, but paid for it from the general fund. How do I accurately record this information? I'm st...
