Donations are simply the contributions or dollar amounts that a donor has made.

There are two ways to add a new donation to a donor.  The first way is to add the donation in during the New Donor process.  If the donor is not a new donor and already resides on your list, then the second way is use the Add Donation Icon located on the Donor Screen.

The New Donation Screen consists of seven different fields. 

Date:
The first field is the date field.  This is where you choose the date that the donation was given.  There are two different ways to chose the date.  You can simply type the date into the field or you can click the drop down arrow to display a calendar to select the date.  An example of this is below.

*Notice that there are two arrows on both sides of the date February, 2005.  The << & >> arrows with scroll left and right between years.  Another words, if you click on the << arrow the calendar will jump from February 2005 to February 2004.  The < & > arrows will scroll left and right between the months in the current year.  That is, if you scroll left once the date will change to January, 2005.  If you scroll left once more from January, the month will then change to December 2005.  It will scroll to the previous year.  You must use the << & >> to scroll between years.
