Just wondering if anyone has an easy way they handle staff giving via payroll deduction entry - we have several staff who are paying off gifts via payroll deduction, and have them all set up in pledge schedules... but is there an easy way to have them all "Auto Pay"? Just looking for a way to make a little less work every to weeks.
Thanks!
We just enter the total gift as a pledge, give payroll deduction instructions to our Accounting Department and because all pledges must be paid by the end of our fiscal year, accounting takes out the funds as directed and we just enter them as cash at the end of the fiscal year.

Mary, at City Center we have done the same thing as Nancy. Since we don't keep track of payroll on the Tessitura side of things, our finance office has said they are satisfied with paying at regular intervals.
Our finance office will actually cut a check from us TO us to use for these gifts from payroll. We will then split the check up to enter on the records of each staff member/donor.

We also enter payroll deductions as a pledge for the year. We then make only two payments on that pledge; one mid-year and the other at the end of the year using a payment method named "Payroll deduction" using a GL assigned by finance.
