Nonprofit organizations exist to support and raise funds and in some cases Materials for a specific purpose. A donation is a gift made by an individual, household or organization to a nonprofit. Argenta has a Donation Management System built in to help you track and run reports on your material donations.

To access the Material Donation Management system, from the Argenta dahboard on the left-hand side of any screen, select Donations and Grants > Material Donations.

When the page loads, The Material Donation List displays all the material donations that have been made to your organization. There are many things you can do on this screen.

 

Access Material Donation Classification Codes

Material donation classification codes can be accessed from the Argenta dashboard on the left-hand side of any screen by selecting Classification Codes.  To add or delete codes please refer to KB article, Working with Donation Categories.

 

View The Total Number of Records and/or Total Dollar Value

 Above every list is a label that displays the total of all items currently displayed in the list. If you filter the list by specific criteria, the totals will change to reflect the filter. This is a very quick and easy way to count or sum list items.
