This Help File will answer the following questions for month end reporting purposes:


  • Question 1: What is the number of active pledges for our church's fund?


  • Question 2: What are the total successful partnerships received


  • Question 3: How do I view the 70% paid to the cluster

On the Pledge Dashboard, you are able to see:

  • The number and Rand value of the different payment methods
 
  • A breakdown of the different currencies in your Pledge List
 
  • To view a list of Active pledges, click on Active.  This will give you a list of all pledges that are currently active in your fund.

Please note:


  • In the example above there are 377 active pledges. This number represents the commitments made on Giving Forms but it doesn't mean all 377 pledges were successful or received.

Choosing "View All Transactions" enables you to have a clearer indication of what has actually happened during the month because it shows both funds that were successful and those that didn't come in for whatever reason.  If a transaction was reversed it will appear in red and will have a reason for failure in the last column

3. How do I view the 70% paid to the cluster


At the end of the month, all partnerships collected in the church fund from partner pledges, are transferred to the Cluster Fund, clearing the fund to zero. From the Cluster Fund, these funds are then distributed as follows:


  • 70% is paid to the cluster via EFT

 

  • 20% is paid to the Admin Fee Fund

 

  • 10% is paid to the Missions & Church Planting Fund

Step 1: Click on the  Menu  icon
