Add Source and Destination Codes

This article explains how to add Source and Destination Codes, change the default source code and record income from segments of a mailing.

Written by Cristiana Ghinea

To keep track of where money is going to and coming from, the user will need to set up financial codes from within the Finance module. There are two different types of codes, Destination and Source codes.

The Destination Code will allow them to control where money is allocated to (a project or fund) and the Source Code will allow the user to monitor how much income they are receiving (from an event, a mailing or an appeal).
​

πŸ“Œ Note: The user will need to have their finance codes set up before they can process any payments in the system.

Set up Source Codes

  1. Click Finance, then Admin.

  2. Select Source Codes and click New.

  3. Enter a Description for the source code.

  4. Select an appropriate category from the Source Type dropdown.

  5. (Optional) Select a destination code to automatically allocate money to from the Default Destination field.

  6. If known, enter an amount in the Target Income and Total Cost fields.

  7. Click Save.

Source Codes can also be created from Completed Mailings by clicking the Create Source button in the menu ribbon. This will create a source code for the mailing and all segments within the mailing.


Set up Destination Codes

  1. Click Finance, then Admin.

  2. Select Destination Codes and click New.

  3. Enter a Description of the destination.

  4. Select an appropriate category from the Destination Type dropdown.

  6. Click the Control tab to set additional information:

    • Tax Destination Code

    • Not Tax Claimable
