Hi, hoping for some help/advice as I'm encountering this situation for the first time. We have a significant pledge from a donor that was made in 2007 to set up an endowment fund for our performing arts center. At that time, an initial payment was made to be used for operating purposes. The pledge was never entered in the system, but the payment was. We'd really like to set this up correctly and have the pledge entered and then make the payment on it. Is there a way for me to do this for a past campaign?
The next problem is that this week we are now receiving two payments on the pledge, with one establishing the endowment and the other to be used for our next fiscal year's operating budget. I believe I can restrict the payment for that time period, but am I able to designate it to a different campaign? (The original pledge would be made in an endowment campaign, but this one payment would, in essence, go to our Annual Fund campaign for next year).
Quickly wanted to post this, but I'd be happy to go into more detail if I need to. Thanks!
Anthony
