Hi jwbs,
I'm here to help you record the donations for this year.
Recording a cash donation is different when recording donation of products or services that you sell.
Make sure to set up the charitable organization as vendor if you want to record a cash donation. Then, record it as check or a bill and payment.
- Click the Plus (+) icon on the upper-right corner.
- Enter the charitable organization that you're donating to as Payee.
- Fill in the necessary information required. Also, in the Category column, make sure to select an expense account dedicated for donations only.
- Click Save and close.
Also, I suggest reaching out to your accountant for other ways on how to record donation. Here's an article that you can go through for more information:
How to Record Donations Or Charitable Contributions.
