You can add or delete any Donation Types by selecting Classification Codes from the Argenta main menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
This will bring you into the full listing of all Customizable Classification Codes that are in Argenta. From here you will choose "Donation Types."
This will open the Donation Types screen where your categories will be listed. Next you will choose the "Add New" button.
This will open the Add A New Donation Type screen for you to add a new Donation Type.
Enter a name for your new type and click "Add This Classification Code" to add this new type to your list.

All classification code lists can be searched by the code’s title. Enter the title of the code you are looking for into the search field to search the list.
Export The List To Excel
Argenta contains many reports, charts, graphs, and statements, but it may be necessary to manipulate your own data. You can work with your data anyway you want by exporting it to Excel. Every list in Argenta has an “Export To Excel” button above the list. Clicking the button exports the data currently displayed in the list to Microsoft Excel. If you have filtered the data by specific criteria, only the result set will be exported.
To Remove A Donation Type
In the donation type list, click the corresponding “Delete” button to remove the donation type from Argenta. Donation types that are already in use cannot be deleted. You will receive an alert indicating that you cannot delete the donation type because it has been used to classify a donation. If you still want to delete it, you can find the donations associated with it by filtering the donations list, reclassifying all associated donations, then trying again to delete it.
