Why is it useful?

Events almost always have more than one option to donate.

Sponorships

Registration

Raffle Tickets

Silent Auction

Donation

etc.

Many of these options do not have preset values and therefore cannot be set up to be used on the RE:Events app. 

Who would benefit?

Having this option would be beneficial to anyone using the event app and would make it quicker and easier to process gifts at an event.

How should it work?

Events could link directly to Appeals.

User would set up an appeal and packages.  Packages would have default gift amounts or not as necessary.  For example, Silent Auction and Donation packages would not have default gift amounts.  After the appeal is set up, give the user an option to create an event based on the appeal.  User would choose which packages are considered “Registrations” and which are not.  The event would then be created and modified as necessary.

When the events app is used at an event, the donor can pay at the door using one of the defined registration options.  A short time later, the donor can be pulled up in the app again and charged for a gift to one of the other “packages”, i.e., raffle ticket(s), silent auction, donation, etc. and all of these gifts would be included in the gift batch set up for the event.
