Would anyone be willing to share their process for acknowledgments in Tessitura?
I am also looking to see how other institutions handle gift processing for gifts that come from a Charitable Gift Fund. Does the gift get entered in Tessitura under the donor name or under the Charitable Gift Fund with a soft credit to the donor?Happy to discuss offline if preferred. Thank you!
Hi Megan,
For any gift, DAF, matching, etc., we put the gift on the entity's account and credit to to donor. We have acknowledgment letter rules set for different types of crediting, so that it automatically adds the right letter to the contribution. Similar to Colleen, we use the Print Acknowledgments utility and download the excel files and merge in word documents. Happy to answer any questions you have!
