donation from a will

Sarah Recca
$organization

One of our donors passed away and left some money for us in his will.  I received half of the payment - should I attach it to his record even though he and his wife are dead and technically inactive? Or should I create a new constituent record associated with the lawyer's office? I'm also not sure if I should create a pledge or just wait for the 2nd payment since we're unsure of the total amount.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Julie,

    I am not seeing TR_CUST_TYPE under the systems tables section.  I can only see TR_CUST_NOTES_TYPE.  Perhaps my credentials are not allowing me to view that particular one? So that’s why I’m stumped as to what to do. Do you have any other suggestions?

     

    Thanks!

    Sarah, you can create new constituent types in the TR_CUST_TYPE table.  That would solve your problem.

    Thanks everyone for the insight.  I can't seem to change the constituent type (and neither can our system administrator) to estate of so I'm thinking of creating a separate record of the attorneys office, coding the gift to them, setting up the association between the two and then soft crediting it as a bequest to the deceased individual's inactive record. This way it will still appear on individual giving reports as we don't have a planned giving program set up in Tessitura. Any thoughts?

    Thanks again,
    Sarah
