Tickets With Donation Component

Hi Folks,

Normal 0 false false false EN-AU X-NONE X-NONE

We are currently exploring the option of selling tickets to our  fundraising events through our website via T-New. Where we have a ticket price that includes a donation component, we are at a loss as to how we might automatically generate a tax deductible receipt for the donation component without having to split the payments at checkout. Any suggestions are most welcome!

Many thanks,

Rosemary

  • Hi Boann,

     

    It’s a bit complicated as we don’t actually issue tickets for our fundraising events (it’s a long story). Also for tax purposes, I don’t think a ticket (even one that was printed with a donation price) would be considered sufficient documentation by our tax department (in addition, I’m sure most of our attendees would misplace their tickets after the event and would chase us up for tax receipts anyway).

    We recently started including fees within the price type by using pricemaps and have discovered that our ticket design was using only the ticket price map to print prices and not the total price map.  A little investigation showed us that there are elements that will print the different types of pice maps or the total price depending on what you want.  So could you just include on the ticket language about "ticket includes donation of ____"?
