Check Number entry

[maritza]

Our church uses business reply envelopes so folks can mail in their contributions. Checks come in the business reply envelopes. We would like to keep a track of the business reply usage, but also enter the contributors check number when entering contributions.

Is there a way of setting up a check number to be recorded in the check number entry area when a custom code for "Business Reply" is set up? Currently only the custom code for "check" allows a check number to be recorded.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Unfortunately, no. However, if you want you can use the NOTE field on the Contributions data entry, then create a custom report to pull the data.

Thanks for your response. Yea, that's what I thought. Bummer!

We're using 10.4 version, so if I'm not mistaken the "Note field option" in the contribution module is available in the later version of PCP?

Thanks again,

Yes, since v11.5 is coming out, it may be time for an update as v11 has a lot of new functionality that you can use in other modules too.

Yup may have to do that.
