Show Option on Donation Entry - "Do Not Include Donation in Donor Recognition" - with this turned on - you can disqualify certain donations from the donor recognition calculation.
Here is where the check box will appear when the option has been enabled.
This function is found under the Administration Menu. You select the cut off date and whether In-Kind donations are to be included in the calculation. Click the Assign Recognition and the system will total donations and assign donors to their respective Recognition Level. A new tab on the Donor Profile will show this information.
