Thanks for your reply. In that case, perhaps I am misunderstanding something…?
I want to record our income, which consists of grants and donations. I can’t see any way to record income except by calling it “sales” and generating an invoice. This APPEARS to be clearly inappropriate.
However: On reading the help information, it seems that this is analogous to “Accounting for Daily Takings”, where no actual customer invoices are involved but a notional invoice is created in the system (and then a payment recorded against it).
In the case of charity donations, using this method involves a rather strange mindset, but I guess it should work. Please could you confirm that I am on the right lines here? Thanks!
