In the manual generation of receipts, have option to check as 'in kind' and then a field to describe the item. As a foodbank, this is extremely useful as we receive a lot of in kind donations and will allow us to stop using and paying for our old receipting system altogether.

Rowan from Zeffy: Hi Rowan. What a great news. Do you have any estimated time of delivery? Also, would it include inkind and money donations in the same form? Thanks
Rowan from Zeffy
Hi Philippe! The feature is now live, feel free to test it out! You can add donations with different types of payment methods to the same form. Is this what you were looking for? Thanks!

Hi all! Thank you so much for your votes and comments. It is in fact possible to generate in kind donation receipts with descriptions from the contact page (see how here: https://support.zeffy.com/how-can-i-generate-a-tax-receipt-for-an-in-kind-donation) We will maintain this feature request with a slight modification to a request to having the option to add the description in the manual entry drawer, not only from the contact page :)

Tax receipts for in-kind donations

many donors want a tax deductible receipt for clothing, personal care items, non perishable food and the like they donate to us. Currently there is only a monetary field. This is urgent for us. Thank you

URGENT second request. Need a non monetary donation field on forms for donors who require a receipt for donations other than money as required by the IRS.

Hi John! Thanks for sharing this request :) In the manual entries for donations, there is an option to indicate "in kind." You can then use the "Description" section to describe the donated item. Would this work for you? To learn more about manual entries in the dashboard, see our FAQ: https://support.zeffy.com/can-i-add-offline-donations

We just put "Gift-In-Kind" in the Memo field of the receipt. Works for us for now!

Hi John, I do this by going to the donor's contact profile and manually generating a receipt for them. I then add a note to the receipt that says "GIFT IN KIND: (description of donation)" and send them the receipt that way. It leaves a large note indicating the nature of the receipt
