Sorry if that sounded harsh, Neil, it wasn't my intention. To review, there is not an "updated" date that is changed anywhere when you make a change to a Personal Profile record. You could add this as one of your custom dates fields, but it would have to be manually changed. This isn't the best solu...

Use the Enter Contributions screen under the Contributions menu.

There you can enter either individual weeks of contributions, or totals for the missing amounts.

Be sure when posting to choose "Only the Contributions Module" instead of "Update Fund Accounting."

There is a Maintenance Release dated 12/7/2006 up on the web site now that will fix this issue for you. Sorry for the delay!

We will be having another MR soon, so an *official* notice will be sent out at that time.

If you restart accounting by deleting *ALL* of your posted transactions, including those for the current month, then it should allow you to reset all of the balances and change the working month to January 2006. If it says it is going to do that, but actually doesn't change the month or reset the ba...

Right. The Contributions module is only going to show things entered directly into Contributions, tied to envelope numbers. If deposits are showing in Fund Accounting, but the records aren't in the Contributions module, it would lead me to believe that either they were not entered into Contributions...

That is correct, but since it was phrased as two separate questions, one of which you had already answered, I thought I would answer the second

Can you be a little more specific with your question please? Is this the "Fund Summary" report in Contributions, or the "Fund Summary" section of Contribution Statements? Is it accounting transactions that are missing for posted contributions, or accounts that are assigned in Maintain List of Contri...

Is October 2006 what you set up as the "Start entering accounting data as of" date or as the "Fiscal year begins in"?

On a side note, if you have not restarted PowerChurch Plus since deleting old data and restarting accounting, do that for the Current Working Month notation to update.

Version 8.5 will not allow you to add a new account in the wrong number range. It will, however, allow you to change your assigned number ranges after the fact, thus leaving accounts outside of the assigned ranges. Versions 9 and 10 work the same. If you have changed the number ranges, you can eithe...

In going through the Setup Accounting Assistant, all of the different moving parts (income, release, equity, and overall released from restrictions accounts) will be set up for you. Simply define what the different temporary or permanent restrictions are and the Assistant will take care of the rest ...

If you want to read the manual on the screen, go to Help > Contents.

Minus the screenshots, 90% of the print manual is there.

Is there a way to query family records and Personal records like this: Select Where FamilyRecords.Update >= "01/01/2006" output (PersonalRecords.FirstName, PersonalRecords.LastName, PersonalRecords.e-mail) Yep, in Custom Reports, under the Personal Profiles menu, the query would be: Date Updated is...

Sorry for my initial incorrect post!

Negative balances in release accounts point to one of three problems: - More money has been released and spent than was actually available - Beginning balances were not entered properly, making it appear as stated above - Release transactions have not been entered properly Since all related accounts...

Googling that question will give you a variety of methods of side stepping this behavior. Due to the nature of these methods, though, actually lowering the "security" of the workstation, we officially don't recommend making any changes.
