Add notes to a donation or ticketing purchase for additional context on the payment. Notes are visible on the dashboard and on transaction reports.
When it is useful to annotate a transaction?
- To keep track of check payments that are received or not
- To keep records of the transaction's history. Ex. : if the transaction is canceled or refunded, you may want to keep a note as to why and who did it
- To keep track of any conversation, question, or concern from your donor. More context is always good!
- To add details to manual entries. Ex. if you manually adjusted your campaign thermometer
How can you annotate a transaction?
- Go to the "Payments" tab under ''Fundraising'' in your left menu.
