Hello Development folk,
We are creating our Funds for some new Pledges. A common Pledge is to contribute to a special exhibition each year. Each exhibition has a separate Fund and GL.
Our challenge is how to enter a Pledge for a future year when the special exhibition is not known (so no Fund yet), but we are still accepting Pledges for the eventual exhibition.
My initial thought was to have a special Fund called Future Unannounced Exhibition Fund, and then adjust the Pledge when the exhibition is known and the GL/Fund exist.
However, changing the Fund for an existing Pledge seems not possible, and potentially not advisable.
How does your organisation manage similar scenarios?
Thanks all,
Nicholas
Hi Nicholas
Not that I've done it, but could you create generic GL's and funds for each possible special exhibition - called "Special Exhibition 2014 # 1" or something like that - then just change the fund name when you know what it's going to be? Then you don't have to move any money around, unless you need to split pledges to multiple exhibitions??
