Deposit through customer

[Katie Eldridge]

Hi Saulius,

There is more than one way of doing this.  I'm assuming you will 
probably have an income account called 'donations'.  You could then have 
an income sub-account for each of your donors, with donations as the 
'parent account'.  This will mean that you can still get a total for 
'donations', but can also have a total for each donor.

Another option would be to use the invoice processes even though you are 
not giving out invoices.  For this each donor would be a 'customer', you 
would write a 'new invoice' for each donation, then post it and 
immediately process payment (you wouldn't need to actually print out an 
'invoice').  If you do this way it would give you an option to make a 
printed receipt, although this would need you to edit the invoice report 
so a bit more complex.

hope that helps,

Katie
