Add a donation pledge

Pledges are donations that your donors have pledged to make, but of which you have not yet received payment. It is the equivalent of the status Awaiting payment of others Applications in Yapla.

To receive pledges through your website, activate the check payment method in your account. Once you have received the check, you can transform the pledge into a donation in order to issue the tax receipt.

The form will be the same as for adding a donation, but without the payment step. The pledge will appear in the list of donations with the status Pledged. As long as the status is Promised, the donation amount can be changed.

WARNING: The addition of a pledge leaves no trace of accountability. As long as it is not indicated as being paid, there will be no accounting entry in your reports and it will not be recorded in your general journal.
