Regular Deposits
Regular Deposits
Regular Deposits is for cash, money orders, and other non-check items you batch before visiting the bank. Group line items into one deposit so your ledger matches the amount on your deposit slip.
What You Can Do
- Record currency, money orders, wires, and similar items in one batch
- Link each line to a donor and fund when the gift should count toward them
- Post the deposit so cash accounts and revenue update together
- Reconcile the batch when the bank statement shows the deposit cleared
Common Tasks
Deposit Sunday cash offerings
- Open Fund Accounting → Regular Deposits.
- Create a new deposit for your operating checking account and service date.
- Add cash line items by fund, post the deposit, and store the counter copy.
Review prior cash batches
- Open posted deposits from the list on the same screen.
- For check batches and scanned gifts, use Check Deposits and its deposit history section.
Good to Know
Online gifts from giving pages post automatically; you do not need a regular deposit for card revenue that already flowed through secure online payments. Use this tool when physical items or manual wires arrive at the office and need a deposit slip total.
Mixed workflows are common: scan checks in Check Deposits, record cash here, and reconcile both against the same bank account during month-end.
