I need to enter a multi-year pledge ($5,000/yr. for 4 years). I'd like to enter one pledge of $20,000 with four payments of $5,000. The trick is that since we have different appeals and campaigns for each fiscal year, each of the four payments will be going to a different appeal and campaign and Contribution Entry only allows me to select one of each. Is there any way around this or do I need to enter 4 separate pledges of $5,000 to each different appeal and campaign?
Margaret,
I have had a similar situation and have had to enter each section separately. I also then put in a note with the same information on each contribution entry. Hope this helps. If anyone else knows a better way, please share.

We do our multi-year pledges as a single pledge – this posts the Campaign Year it came and appeal that actually brought it in. We are not using Campaign Revenue reports for most of our multi-year pledges so that seems be the reasoning behind single year pledges for future Campaigns.
From a finance stand point the result is the same since the GL drives where the contributions appear on those reports.
