Charitable Tax Receipt feature question

Hello everyone!

I am looking for some feedback on re-generating receipts from a constituent account. Let me try to set the scene for you...From the constituent account, you can see a list of tax receipt that have been generated for the constituent.

You can click the edit icon for one of the receipts to see more details and re-print or re-email the receipt if needed. For example, maybe the receipt was generated with the wrong name.

Once you click Reprint/Resend, a new page opens where you can choose a different salutation, then email or print the new receipt directly from the constituent record.

Because we are changing the name on the receipt, we will actually need to void the original receipt, generate a new one with the right name, then link the two so that we meet CRA requirements. Here's where I would like some feedback.

  1. In an effort to make this process quick and easy, should we perform these void, reissue, and link steps in the background as automatically as possible?
  2. Do you want it to be more visually clear that there will be an "old version' and "new version" of this receipt? For example, should I change the layout of that last page so that it displays the data from the current receipt in a section at the top, then in a new section at the bottom, show what will be on the replacement receipt? 
    1. Remember that if all you're doing is re-emailing a receipt to a customer, and not making any changes, the data at the top and bottom of the screen will be identical. Will that be confusing?

  3. If a receipt has to be voided and replaced, because the name has changed for example, is ok to use a default void reason (automatically selected by Tessitura) or do you want to be able to choose a void reason of your own from a dropdown list?

  4. Any other thoughts or feedback about this workflow?

As always, I'm super grateful for your time and thoughts.

  • Hi Meaghan,

    Thanks as always for soliciting feedback throughout this development!

    Yes please!!!

    Do you want it to be more visually clear that there will be an "old version' and "new version" of this receipt?

    Would it be possible to see a Preview of a re-generated receipt before saving/sending?  If not, I think it would be beneficial to see existing versus new to ensure we're making the correct changes (if any).  I don't think it would be confusing to see the same information if all we're doing is reissuing.

    If a receipt has to be voided and replaced, because the name has changed for example, is ok to use a default void reason (automatically selected by Tessitura) or do you want to be able to choose a void reason of your own from a dropdown list?

    I don't think it ever hurts to have custom reasons why a receipt is being voided.  However, it's not a CRA requirement to store this rationale.  So to me, it's more of a "nice to have" instead of a "need to have".

    Hope this helps!
