I'm using 12.2 on the most current (I think) Maintenance Release.

I'd like to modify the existing "Funds Report" so that it also includes a breakdown of contribution type (check/cash/online). I'm not looking to get the breakdown per fund, just hoping to append the breakdown below the existing report fields/data.

Is there a way to modify the existing report? If not, can anyone help me create the custom report? Once I create the custom report, how do I add it to the Quick Tasks menu?

I don't believe using an existing report as a starting point to customize it is available. I believe it has to do with the way one is created vs. the way the user report writer shows available data items.

FWIW ... there is a report that can show that breakdown, look at the Totals by Payment Method report. You can select the time period you want to view from today (when the report is run), a day you select, a week period, month, etc.

This can easily be added to Quick Tasks using the normal add item method in QT.

You’re right. I did find the separate report, but that’s an extra step for counters who are not all PC savvy. I’m hoping to get both reports combined into one. I’ve emailed this feature request as suggested in another post.

Does this forum have a getting started post to provide a quick tutorial on creating custom reports?

On the main Powerchurch page, head to the SUPPORT menu -> Knowledgebase and search on Custom Reports.

There are custom report examples here:
