Deleting a Single Contribution

Have you noticed an offline Contribution record that has been added in error, or maybe one that's associated with the wrong contact? If this Contribution hasn't been receipted yet, you'll be able to delete this Contribution entirely from your DMS. This article covers how you can delete a single offline Contribution.

Considerations

But before deleting a Contribution, take a moment to consider one of the alternatives below:

• Has the contribution been receipted?
  • If so, you'll want to cancel the Contribution (and void the receipt) instead, so that you retain the record for the CRA.
• Is there a mistake in the Contribution record, such as incorrect Payment Method, Campaign, Fund, or Dedication information?
  • If so, you can modify this Contribution instead
