Online Event Registration Fees should not be recorded as gifts.

When analyzing data and report building our donor information is incorrect due to some individuals not giving gifts, but just attending events.

    Blackbaud, this is a big issue if you expect us to use the new gift management process in RENXT. We need the ability to change the gift type at the time of reviewing the batch to change for these circumstances where the fee or payment is "non-charitable".

    Not all monies coming into a non-profit are charitable gifts. I would think Blackbaud would realize this and not have "one-time" gift as the only option for registration fees (or any other monies) that are 100% non-charitable. We should not have to do "work-arounds" to account for these registration fees like creating a separate fund for them. That fund still shows up in the reports as a gift and throws off the results.

    This is absolutely obsurd that it's still recording registration fees as gifts. I have brought it to the attention RE for almost 6 months.

    I couldn't agree more! Event registration fees are not gifts and should not be recorded as a gift, even if it has $0 as the receipted amount.
