    Contributions for Individual on Behalf of Another Individual or Company

    We have two members who are giving to a church campaign pledge through company paycheck withdrawals that also include a company match. The checks come in from the company in a single amount.  I'm struggling with how to record this in the contributions app.

    I'm assuming the employee amount should be allocated to the church member and the company match (which is the company's money) should be allocated to the organization.  But the split tool allows split only for funds/accounts, not for multiple contributors.

    What are my options here?  Has anyone had to deal with something like this?

    We also have contributions like this.  We scan the same check multiple times and apply it to the individuals then we scan once and apply the other half of the check to the organization.  It takes a while but it works.

    Hi there,

    I'm wondering the same thing. We've just transitioned from ACS and aren't quite sure what to do in a situation like this.

    Ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Scratch that - we just tried what Sherry suggested and it seems to have worked.

    Thanks for your help!
