Adding a late soft credit

Hi, I added a contribution to a donor recently but forgot to add the soft credit.  Is there a way I can go back and add the soft credit? Thanks.

  • Hey Katie,

    I think the "standard" way for correcting a contribution entry to add a soft credit is to temporarily remove the contribution by reversing it out and then re-entering the contribution and adding the soft credit at that time.

    When I worked at Tulsa Ballet, we had a Payment Method specified for adjustments like this where I could enter a negative amount of the contribution value against it, then re-enter the amount in the positive to the same Payment Method as a new contribution with whatever Soft Credit information was needed.

    Thank you,

    Brian
